Huawei OceanStor Dorado5000 V3 is used as the main SAN storage device of our virtual servers on VMware, serving the whole of our organization. The device has a very stable working structure and we have been using it for years without having to perform any maintenance or operation after installation. It's much faster than its competitors in terms of performance thanks to all flash NVME technology. In addition, it is much more affordable than its competitors.
- Deduplication and compression ratios are awesome
- Simple and easy management interface
- reliability, adaptability, scalability
- It has a much more affordable price compared to devices of the same class with its cost
- High IOPS values
- In thin provisioned disk structure, I would like it to give an estimated date when the full capacity will be reached according to the usage status
- Reporting could be easier

- Cost of ownership is advantageous compared to other products
- Can significantly reduce the cost with compression and deduplication
- Energy consumption is low, as it shows on its own dashboard a monthly average of 301.25 kWh
- IBM Storwize (now part of FlashSystems), PowerProtect DD (formerly Dell EMC Data Domain), Dell EMC VMAX All Flash Storage and IBM FlashSystem 7200 (formerly Storwize V7000)
All Flash NVMe SSD technology is currently at the top of this business. Its disk structure is hundreds of times faster than traditional mechanical SAS systems, but also compared to today's SSD systems!
It has a much more affordable price than the devices of the same class.
In addition to these, we had a lot of hesitation when we decided to give up the competitor brand and buy a product that works reliably and smoothly, but we researched and learned very well. We made the right choice.

We removed the IBM Storwize v5000 SAN device and put the Huawei OceanStor Dorado 5000v3 All Flash NVMe SSD in the production environment.

It is fast; the manufacturer responds to all the questions we ask with all the technical team. The price was a huge advantage because it was really affordable and it was much faster.
Obviously, it was not easy to remove the competing brand product and replace it with Huawei OceanStor servers, routers, and SAN devices because the production environment is the most risky. Here we hesitated a lot. What I would change would be avoiding wasting time if it were today. After purchasing the product, we attended the training, which lasted for days, which the engineers who installed the product received free of charge.

Huawei OceanStor Experience
Huawei OceanStor is being used within the data centre to run mission-critical workloads i.e. SAP ECC6 database and application servers. The system being deployed in the data centre SAN environment is the Huawei OceanStor Dorado V3 all-flash storage system, which has been configured with Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) disks for maximum performance. Since this is an all-flash system, it addresses performance, reliability, and availability features.
- The Huawei OceanStor Dorado All Flash NVMe storage array provides maximum performance.
- The OceanStor Dorado is ideally suited for use with databases, Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), Virtual Machines, and file server environments.
- The capital and maintenance costs were very competitive for a similar storage system at other storage vendors.
- The licensing needs to be explained better. There is not much information about how the licensing works for the OceanStor, and what I found was a vague summary and not clearly explained. This became a problem when we deployed the system and realized we needed an additional migration license.

The Huawei OceanStor product line is very broad and they offer a wide range of storage systems from entry-level for the small enterprise to high-end storage systems for those demanding workloads typically required at medium to large enterprises. Huawei OceanStor is very reliable with many software features at competitive costs when compared to other storage systems. Huawei OceanStor can easily integrate within the data centre as their system supports many operating systems, hypervisors, SAN switches etc. Another important point to note is that Huawei has made it known that they spend a substantial amount of their revenue in R&D and that is confirmed in the reliability of their products.
