Dr Peter Zhou, Vice President of Huawei and President of Huawei Data Storage Product Line, believes that carriers are concerned about maximizing the value of data and measuring the effectiveness of data storage, management, and utilization within data infrastructure.

He points out that Huawei has invested heavily in data storage for more than a decade, and the company’s data storage products have served over 400 operators in more than 150 countries and regions around the world.

The Telco Operator Data Storage Power Index white paper is the result of close collaboration between Huawei and IDC, made possible through extensive communication with experts, customers, and partners in the industry.

The paper aims to establish a system for evaluating data storage power, enabling operators to comprehensively assess their data infrastructure and ensure it becomes stable, reliable, and efficient.

Thomas Zhou, Vice President of IDC China, notes that 95% of operators have an urgent need to optimize their IT infrastructure.

He adds that the digital economy will logically lead to future digital infrastructure, and that storage power is a pillar of such infrastructure.
