At the 2025 Data Storage Industry Conference, Zhou Yuefeng, who serves as the President of Huawei's Data Storage Product Line, remarked that previously, data storage was mainly centered around the act of storing data and providing support for upper - layer applications. However, in the forthcoming AI era, data storage will evolve into a comprehensive data platform. This new platform will integrate a range of functions, including inference acceleration, as well as the generation and retrieval of multi - modal knowledge bases. As a result, the traditional storage paradigm is set to undergo a significant transformation, and may well be dubbed the AI Data Platform in the days to come. It is anticipated that Huawei will officially unveil this tangible product early in the next year.
