On April 10th, 2025, the China Mobile Cloud AI Conference 2025 was grandly inaugurated at the Suzhou Jinji Lake International Convention Center. The conference, themed "From Cloud to AI, Jointly Creating a New Ecological Landscape of Computing Networks", unveiled a series of plans and innovative achievements such as the new cloud intelligence computing system, the new computing power infrastructure, and the joint creation of industrial ecosystem. Union Memory, as a strategic partner of China Mobile, made a grand debut at the exhibition, presenting its groundbreaking new generation of enterprise-grade PCIe 5.0 SSDs and all-scenario storage solutions. Together with industry technical experts and ecosystem partners, they explored the trend of integration between cloud computing and intelligent technologies and jointly drew the blueprint for the transformation and upgrading of the storage industry.

Enterprise PCIe 5.0 SSD, Breaking Through the Storage Bottleneck in the AI Era

Currently, AI technology is rapidly penetrating into various industries. From open-source large models to edge-end intelligent devices, diversified deployment scenarios are redefining the paradigm of storage technologies. Facing the PB-level data flood during large model training and the millisecond response requirements for edge inference, the traditional storage architectures are facing multiple challenges such as bandwidth bottlenecks, and imbalance between performance and energy efficiency, giving rise to the urgent need for the storage system to evolve from a data carrier to intelligent engine. During the conference, Union Memory focused on showcasing its new generation of Enterprise PCIe 5.0 SSD UH812a/UH832a, with a double leap in performance and energy efficiency, providing key support for new intelligent computing scenarios.

UH812a/UH832a uses Enterprise PCIe 5.0 interface. Their data throughput efficiency is doubled compared to that of the previous generation (PCIe 4.0 SSD UH811a series). The sequential read speed is up to 14.9GB/s, and the 4K random read QD1 latency is lower than 55μs. It can not only meet the high throughput demands of hundred-billion-parameter model training, but also enables microsecond-level response for real-time analysis scenarios involving OLAP and big data.

Given the energy efficiency challenges in high-performance computing, and by deeply integrating the controller chip and firmware algorithm, the UH812a/ UH832a controls the peak power consumption for sequential reads within 18W. In addition, it is configured with an intelligent power consumption dynamic adjustment function, which can optimize resource allocation in real time based on the service load, achieving the optimal energy efficiency in all scenarios and enabling green energy-saving at the SSD level, thereby helping data centers reduce costs while increasing efficiency.

Moving Forward Together: Co-creating a New Paradigm for the AI+ Ecosystem

Union Memory has been deeply engaged in storage technologies for over two decades, and has established a complete matrix of enterprise-grade storage products, covering PCIe/SAS/SATA interface standards. It offers diverse product forms and flexible and customizable portfolio solutions, continuously building data storage platforms with ultimate performance for key industries such as finance, telecommunication, and government services, and empowering enterprises in their digital transformation.

As a long-term strategic partner of China Mobile, Union Memory has always closely aligned with China Mobile's needs for digitalized services, continuously promoting the upgrade and innovation of storage infrastructure. The cooperation between the two sides has evolved from product supply to comprehensive ecosystem co-construction. From the joint establishment of an IT evaluation laboratory, to the entry into the open laboratory for mobile cloud intelligent chips, to the release of the practical research results of "green finance chain", and the launch of the "Thousand Sails Program", etc. Through multi-dimensional cooperation such as joint technical R&D, co-establishment of standards, and ecosystem sharing, the two sides jointly promote the sustainable development of the storage and intelligent computing industry chain, providing important support for the digital transformation of all industries.

China Mobile, as the leader in the construction of computing power networks and the main force in the construction of Digital China, is fully promoting the integrated development of computing power networks and "AI+". Union Memory will work hand in hand with China Mobile to push forward the innovation of data storage technologies, continuously provide high-performance and highly reliable storage platforms, and with solid storage capacity, we will empower new quality productive forces, jointly drawing a new blueprint for AI computing.
