Object Storage
The mobile and intelligent trend of enterprise applications is very obvious. The data types generated by applications are changing. The proportion of unstructured data such as pictures, videos, voice and documents in the total data volume of enterprises has become an absolute majority. Traditional storage has become a bottleneck in the digital transformation of enterprises. Choosing more appropriate storage technology has become a necessary option for IT infrastructure construction.
At present, more than 80% of the new data is unstructured data
More than 95% of the data in the future will be unstructured data

Why object storage
The flexibility and flatness of object storage enable it to store a large amount of data through expansion, save enough information through metadata, help applications find data quickly, and be good at storing and utilizing unstructured data. It can be expanded on a large scale and can store any type of data in the native format economically and efficiently, making object storage technology quickly become an efficient information processing platform for data owners.
MOS is an object storage product with enterprise storage capability and intelligent retrieval and processing capability. The new generation of storage engine builds a cross regional storage architecture with linear expansion and almost no capacity limit based on standard servers. While providing highly reliable and highly available services, it integrates data intelligent processing and analysis capabilities, simplifies the infrastructure required for massive data processing, and greatly improves the efficiency of data processing.
Enterprise content management
- Support the management of counter image platform, file system, E-insurance policy, logistics e-express list, ERP, e-mail, CRM and other business systems, and provide rapid data query and access management solutions. More and more enterprises begin to migrate the files, pictures, images and other contents stored in the traditional ECM system to the object storage system.
Artificial intelligence and Application
- It provides a highly scalable data bearing platform for the massive data generated by the landing application of artificial intelligence technologies such as face recognition, speech recognition, natural language processing and machine learning in mobile terminals, UAVs, on-board intelligent devices, remote business terminals and other scenarios, and creates a whole process data analysis, value feature extraction and information retrieval solution combined with AI technology.
Image storage
- The bank's bill images, double recorded videos, face images, scanned copies of paper documents, customer service voice data and telemarketing voice data of insurance companies, and medical images of hospitals are huge and need to be kept for a long time. The almost unlimited scalability of object storage can support the growing demand of data volume. The connection relationship between storage devices and businesses is simple and easy to maintain. Object storage can be used as a data source to directly analyze big data and mine the value information in image data.
Video surveillance
- Object storage automatically migrates data in multiple storage resource pools of hot, cold and cloud according to the access frequency. The accessibility of near line storage is combined with the economy of cold archiving to provide long-term data protection, almost unlimited scalability and very low overall cost of ownership, which can meet the needs of massive data archiving, collaborative access of production teams and disaster recovery.
Big data storage analysis
- Support Hadoop, spark and other big data analysis platforms to provide complete solutions for the collection, storage and analysis of different business data, such as cloudera big data platform, operator user log analysis, financial fraud detection, gene data sequencing, etc.
Archive Backup
- Object storage provides persistent, secure and cost-effective cloud storage capability, which can meet various backup requirements. Backup data from the data center to object storage, replace expensive and inefficient tapes, and simplify backup operations and archiving processes. For cloud data, the cloud native interface of object storage and low-cost advantages can be used to realize application consistent automatic backup and recovery solutions.
