Huawei Advances AI Data Centers with New Power Architecture
Shenzhen, Thursday, 6 March 2025.
Huawei’s new power supply architecture for AI data centers focuses on reducing energy consumption and enhancing performance, aligning with Europe’s sustainability goals and addressing AI’s growing demand.
Revolutionary RASTM Guidelines
On March 5, 2025, Huawei unveiled its groundbreaking RASTM (Reliable, Agile, Sustainable) guidelines for AI data centers [1]. The framework addresses three critical aspects of modern data center operations: reliability for handling increasing AI workloads, agility through modular design, and sustainability through enhanced power efficiency. This development comes as the company positions itself at the forefront of AI infrastructure innovation.
Next-Generation Storage Solutions
Complementing the new architecture, Huawei introduced its New-Gen All-Flash Data Center products on March 4, 2025 [2]. The flagship OceanStor A800 High-Performance AI Storage system achieves a remarkable 30% improvement in computing power utilization, while the OceanStor Pacific 9928 establishes new industry benchmarks with a power consumption rate of just 0.25 W/TB [2].
Enhanced Network Connectivity
Further strengthening its data center ecosystem, Huawei launched the StarryLink optical modules on March 6, 2025 [3]. These modules feature advanced capabilities for optimized signal power distribution, delivering twice the industry-average transmission distance while implementing comprehensive packet encryption for enhanced security [3].
Global Implementation and Future Outlook
The impact of these innovations is already evident in real-world applications, as demonstrated by the recent partnership with STC Bahrain to construct a next-generation Cloud & AI Data Center [4]. This collaboration exemplifies the growing global demand for advanced AI infrastructure solutions, with industry experts noting that AI is just one factor driving the exponential growth in data center requirements [5].
