Huawei H19-308_V4.0 Exam - Topic 2 Question 2 Discussion

This statement is true as it describes a core architectural component of the Huawei SmartMatrix fully-interconnected design. In the new-generation OceanStor hybrid flash systems, multiple controllers within a cluster must communicate at extremely high speeds to synchronize cache data and manage metadata across the entire storage pool.

To achieve the low latency required for these operations, Huawei utilizes RDMA (Remote Direct Memory Access) for controller interconnection. RDMA allows one controller to access the memory of another controller directly, bypassing the operating system's kernel and reducing CPU overhead. This high-speed back-end interconnection (often operating at 100 Gbps or higher) ensures that data can be mirrored between controllers almost instantaneously, which is critical for supporting symmetric active-active services and maintaining 99.9999% availability. By using RDMA, Huawei can deliver 'flash-like' performance even in hybrid arrays by ensuring that the architectural bottlenecks of traditional controller communication are eliminated.
