About the H3C UniStor CF22000 G5 All-Flash Array

The H3C UniStor CF22000 G5 is an enterprise-grade all-flash array engineered for mission-critical workloads demanding extreme performance, high availability, and scalable capacity. Built on an end-to-end NVMe architecture, the system supports NVMe-oF (NVMe over Fabrics) host connectivity, eliminating legacy storage protocol bottlenecks and delivering sub-millisecond latency across the entire I/O path from host to media. The G5 generation advances H3C's UniStor platform with enhanced controller processing power, higher drive density, and deeper integration with modern data center networking fabrics including 100GbE and InfiniBand.

The CF22000 G5 employs an active-active dual-controller architecture with no single point of failure, supporting non-disruptive upgrades, automatic failover, and continuous availability for production environments. The system integrates inline data reduction technologies—including deduplication, compression, and thin provisioning—delivered without performance penalty, maximizing effective capacity utilization across dense NVMe SSD drive shelves. Storage resource management is handled through H3C's unified storage operating system, which provides a consistent management interface across block, file, and object protocols.

Targeted at large enterprises, cloud service providers, financial institutions, and high-performance computing environments, the CF22000 G5 is designed to consolidate diverse mixed workloads including OLTP databases, virtual machine infrastructure, AI/ML training data pipelines, and real-time analytics. Its scale-out architecture allows capacity and performance to grow incrementally without disrupting running applications, making it suitable for organizations requiring long-term investment protection alongside demanding SLA commitments.

Ideal for

  • High-frequency OLTP database acceleration for Oracle, SQL Server, and SAP HANA workloads requiring consistent sub-millisecond response times
  • Large-scale VMware and OpenStack virtual machine storage consolidation with high VM density and granular QoS controls
  • AI and machine learning training data repositories requiring high-throughput sequential read performance across NVMe-oF connected GPU compute clusters
  • Financial services core banking and real-time risk analytics platforms demanding continuous availability and deterministic low latency
  • Enterprise backup and disaster recovery target storage leveraging inline deduplication and replication to secondary sites
  • High-performance VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure) deployments with boot storm resilience and consistent IOPS per desktop
