With the acceleration of global digital transformation, data storage is becoming more and more important as a key element to support the digital transformation of economy and society. Data storage is not only an important cornerstone for the high-quality development of the digital economy, but also a key guarantee for the rapid progress and wide application of cutting-edge technologies such as "artificial intelligence. In recent years, China's data storage industry has ushered in unprecedented development opportunities under the guidance of national policies. Building a modern data infrastructure system and accelerating the release of the value of data elements have become an important part of the national strategy. As a key link in this system, the development and innovation of data storage technology are directly related to the improvement of the core competitiveness of China's digital economy.

Recently, the opening ceremony of the 2024 China computing power conference released the China Capacity Development Report (2024). From the perspective of the development of China's storage industry, the report comprehensively sorts out the latest development trends of China's data storage industry, and deeply analyzes the policy environment, storage industry, storage construction, characteristics of advanced storage, the status quo and trends of multiple dimensions such as industry applications. This paper puts forward the new characteristics of advanced storage under the current background of data elements and artificial intelligence, and finally looks forward to the construction of China's storage and puts forward corresponding suggestions.

| | 1. Multidimensional analysis of the development of China's storage industry.

This paper discusses the development status of China's data storage industry from the perspectives of policy release, era background, storage industry chain and advanced storage. At present, China's data storage industry is developing towards higher quality and more sustainable under the promotion of national policies. The improvement of policy system is promoting the innovation of digital economy. At the same time, the rapid development of data elements and artificial intelligence is driving the growth of the storage industry, bringing unprecedented development opportunities to the data storage market. The storage industry chain is becoming more and more perfect. From the upstream storage particles to the storage devices in the middle reaches to the downstream application market, the whole industry chain is showing an overall development trend. In addition, China's advanced data storage technology has continuously broken through and has reached the world's leading level. In the future, the layout of all-flash memory will become an important trend to promote industrial development.

| | 2. Overall analysis of China's data capacity construction.

A comprehensive analysis of the overall, regional, provincial and municipal, key industries and the construction of the storage center of China's data storage construction. At present, China's total data production is relatively large, the scale of data storage continues to increase, the proportion of advanced storage capacity has greatly increased, and the demand for data storage will continue to grow in the future. The layout of advanced data storage not only promotes the development of regional digital economy, but also leads southeast provinces in improving the quality of data storage. In key business scenarios, the proportion of flash memory technology has increased, improving quality and efficiency for the industry. At the same time, data fusion and intensive construction are exerting scale effect. The intensive construction method of data storage in the storage center has improved the efficiency and efficiency of storage construction and effectively broke the phenomenon of data Island.

| | 3. Summarize the new requirements of data elements and artificial intelligence for advanced storage, and summarize the new characteristics of advanced storage.

Data elements and artificial intelligence are the important development direction of our country at present. Under this background, advanced storage power shows new characteristics, which are mainly reflected in the horizontal expansion of PB level, larger capacity of 100 million IOPS, it has higher performance and supports data management as the basis; SSD-represented flash memory media and data-centric application architectures, such as data weaving and new data paradigm, and Diskless, system architectures such as storage and computing separation are supported. Storage support is integrated with data space, multi-cloud, and containers to achieve a secure ecosystem of data sharing and flow, data compression implements green energy efficiency, which is based on self-secure and reliable storage, and provides native security capabilities such as anti-ransomware, state-secret encryption, and data security transfer.

| | 4. Analyze the supporting effect of advanced power on typical industries, and put forward suggestions on the construction of power in China.

With the accelerated development of digital and intelligent transformation in the industry, advanced storage is becoming the key force to support the digital transformation of finance, telecommunications, government affairs, manufacturing, medical treatment, scientific research, security and other industries. In order to ensure the stability and data security of financial transactions, optimize the resource utilization of operators, improve the ability of government affairs to perform their duties, promote the sharing of medical resources, help scientific research data analysis, and improve the monitoring and security capabilities, optimizing the configuration of cloud and internet resources has significant effects. The final report puts forward strategic suggestions to promote the development of China's storage power, including improving the top-level planning of the storage industry chain, encouraging technological innovation, promoting the coordinated development of storage resources, and paying attention to the cultivation of professional talents. These suggestions are aimed at promoting the high-quality development of energy-saving technologies through technological innovation and policy guidance, and providing solid data support for the sustained growth of China's digital economy.
