As AI inference scales up, Huawei redefines the role of storage

At a data storage user forum in Wuxi, Huawei proposed that as AI inference scales, storage must evolve from traditional persistence devices into the inference path, and introduced the industry's first context memory storage (CMS) for large-scale inference, a G3.5 storage tier. Huawei emphasized a full-stack approach to integrate data, compute, models, and agents, aiming to advance AI adoption.
