Today, the 2023 China Data and Storage Summit with the theme "Smart Innovation, AI Future" took place successfully in Beijing. Gooxi was invited to participate and showcased its newest storage server products. These products, paired with the latest processor platforms, demonstrate the ability to accelerate workload performance in various fields such as artificial intelligence, data analysis, cloud computing, data storage, and high-performance computing.

With the rapid development of technologies like cloud-native and hyper-convergence, data has evolved from a previously single storage mode to become increasingly complex. The volume of data has grown exponentially, posing challenges in terms of data security, efficient availability, and flexible scalability. At present, the surge of AIGC (Artificial Intelligence and Generalized Computing) technology has once again placed data at the forefront. In the realm of language models, the window size is a key indicator of the comprehensive computational capabilities of large models. A longer window size allows models to process a richer knowledge base, generating more coherent and precise text. Therefore, addressing data storage in the era of large models is crucial for building the foundation of the digital world and advancing the era of data intelligence.

• Distributed Storage Gradually Becoming Mainstream

Traditional databases primarily manage structured data, such as strings, using point and range searches, making block storage (SAN) and file storage (NAS) the predominant storage methods. With the emergence of unstructured data in the era of big data, distributed storage, such as object storage, has gained prominence. While NAS and SAN boast similar controller architectures and provide stable and secure cold data storage, their limited storage nodes constrain them in the face of complex and massive data storage requirements.

In high-tech fields like cloud computing, AI, HPC, and big data, distributed storage is gradually becoming the mainstream, shouldering the responsibility of massive, high-performance data storage. Gooxi, deeply rooted in the server domain with over a decade of advanced industry experience, has developed a distributed storage system that combines high performance, reliability, scalability, and comprehensive data protection and enterprise storage functionality. This system employs an architecture similar to traditional file systems, dividing data into file blocks and storing them on different nodes, significantly enhancing system reliability, availability, and read/write efficiency.

• Strong scalability

Gooxi's distributed storage system supports deployment starting from three nodes, easily building distributed storage services at the PB or EB scale. With horizontal expansion of the number of nodes, performance can achieve synchronous linear expansion.

• Large capacity

Its single-cluster horizontal expansion capability can reach up to 1024 nodes, and with multiple clusters merging configurations, it can exceed 4000 nodes.

• Intensive cluster management

It supports unified management of multiple clusters, enabling centralized management of over 4000 nodes through a single interface.

• High efficiency

It can manage the entire lifecycle of hot and warm data. Through flexible configuration based on flash, disk, tape, and optical disk performance types (performance-oriented, balanced, capacity-oriented), storage costs for TB-level data can be reduced by over 50%, and TCO can be reduced by 35%.

• Dual-Control Storage Servers (SAN)

Dual-control storage is the ideal storage method for OLAP-class online transactions, telecommunications, core databases in finance, and other fields. Gooxi's dual-control storage servers support deployment at the edge, core, or in the public cloud. The system adopts wireless cables and modular design, enabling flexible expansion and supporting agile data migration.
