Sponsored: From compute race to data showdown: The agent era will be won in the storage layer
At Huawei Connect 2026, the Data Storage Summit highlighted that the next phase of enterprise AI will depend less on GPU purchases and more on rebuilding data infrastructure.
The Data Storage Summit at Huawei Connect 2026 marked a significant turning point in enterprise AI strategy. Industry leaders now recognize that simply acquiring powerful GPUs is no longer sufficient for advancing artificial intelligence capabilities.
The future of AI will be determined by how organizations restructure their data infrastructure to support increasingly complex applications and workloads. This represents a fundamental shift from the previous compute-centric approach to a more data-centric methodology.
Storage Revolution
The agent era, characterized by autonomous AI systems, will be won by those who optimize their storage layers for data accessibility, processing, and security. This transition requires significant investment in next-generation storage technologies and architectures.
