On the evening of 28 March, the autonomous-driving track turned a new page. The auto and technology worlds jointly served a hard dish, again showing that autonomous driving will reconstruct the underlying technical logic of the car.

From 2022 to 2024, Sugon Storage continuously provided more than 100 PB of storage resources to autonomous-driving companies, using advanced storage capacity to serve R&D and mass production and to accelerate autonomous vehicles to market. For the massive data, extreme performance, and safety and stability challenges facing automakers, Sugon Storage brought an efficient solution with an all-flash plus hybrid-flash product mix.

Raising efficiency

Sugon Storage’s NVMe all-flash products deliver 45 GB/s bandwidth and million-class IOPS per node, deeply supporting customers’ GPU training and maximizing compute efficiency in autonomous-driving training, AI deep learning, and big-data analysis.

Fast expansion

With a distributed storage architecture, a single Sugon ParaStor cluster supports 3–4,096 nodes and exabyte-scale capacity. Sugon Storage helped a customer expand from several dozen nodes to 200+ nodes within three days. With storage expansion and adaptive data balancing, business is not affected before or after expansion, helping automakers meet data challenges with confidence.

Stable operation

Under autonomous driving’s extreme-performance needs, more than 1,000 container workloads run online at once, and storage load stays above 85% for long periods. With rigorous operating practice and around-the-clock response, Sugon Storage continuously protects data integrity and reliability and stably supports high-load business.

Facing the autonomous-driving boom, Sugon Storage will continue to support algorithm development with advanced storage capacity, helping automakers accelerate mass production and reach the market faster.
