Huawei OceanStor 5500 V5 – Product Documentation


Product Overview

The Huawei OceanStor 5500 V5 is a next-generation mid-range hybrid flash storage system designed for enterprises that demand high performance, scalability, and intelligent data management. As part of the OceanStor 5000 V5 series, this unified storage platform converges SAN and NAS capabilities, eliminating the need for separate gateway solutions and simplifying data center infrastructure .

The system is built on a cloud-ready operating system with flash-accelerated performance, delivering million-level IOPS to support demanding workloads such as large-database OLTP/OLAP, virtualization (VMware, Hyper-V, OpenStack), cloud computing, high-performance computing (HPC), and AI/ML applications . It is an ideal choice for sectors including government, finance, telecommunications, and manufacturing.

Key advantages include multi-level convergence (SAN/NAS, heterogeneous storage, and primary/backup storage), intelligent service optimization through features like SmartQoS and SmartCache, and comprehensive data protection capabilities. The system supports gateway-free active-active configuration (HyperMetro) to ensure 24/7 business continuity. With scalability to up to 16 controllers and 2,400 disk drives, the OceanStor 5500 V5 grows seamlessly with evolving business needs .
