Sales strategies of T series V2 High specification Quick Good Economical Large cache Mass disks High performance Excellent architecture and interoperability Reduced cost and effort Compared with counterparts of peer vendors, T series V2 provides higher hardware specifications. The numbers of nodes, caches, and disks are 1.5 times to twice those of peer vendors' counterparts. In the SPC-1 performance test, OceanStor T series is in an absolutely leading position. For example, S6800T takes the lead among all mid-range storage products with its striking 250,000 IOPS. Excellent architecture: 1. OceanStor T series uses the RAID 2.0+ disk virtualization to provide the fastest disk data repair service. The repair speed of the architecture used by the OceanStor T series is 20 times that of traditional architectures in the industry. For example, OceanStor T series recovers 1 TB of data within 30 minutes. As for competitive products, the recovery of 1 TB data takes 10 hours. 2. Mid-range OceanStor T series supports scale-out. Customers can purchase storage devices on demand and flexibly expand storage devices to meet service requirements. Currently, the products from EMC, Fujitsu, HDS, Inspur, Sugon, UIT, and TOYOU do not support this technology. Excellent interoperability: OceanStor T series mid-range storage systems can communicate with software platforms of Huawei high-end storage systems. Unified management and DR interconnection are achievable. Most peer vendors do not support interworking of high-end and mid-range storage systems. The overall DR solution cost of other vendors is higher than that of Huawei. Reduced cost: Adhering to the principle of one-time charge, OceanStor T series does not charge customers additional license fees for capacity expansion. Reduced effort: Huawei has fast service response capabilities, provides engineer support, and sets up provincial branches in China (China market has the advantage.) 24

Sales strategies of unified storage products (1) OceanStor T series unified storage products are sold on the global market. In China market, use low-end products to compete with peer vendors' high-end products. Highlight IDC reports and compatibility certification to cheapen products of peer vendors such as Inspur, Lenovo, and TOYOU. Highlight high specifications of T series to prevent malicious price competition with HP and DELL. Besides, highlight specifications such as the number of disks, caches, and front-end and back-end interfaces of T series to force EMC and IBM to resort to high-end products with high prices in their bidding. Since T series V2 can be scaled out up to four controllers, it can be used to cheapen dual-controller products of HDS and Chinese peer vendors. (The specification of four controllers is used to cheapen peer vendors' products. Dual-controller products are recommended in actual sales.) Meanwhile, we can employ our efficiency improvement software to technically cheapen products of Chinese peer vendors such as Inspur, Sugon, and TOYOU. In fields such as governments, public security, and power, we can highlight our independent intellectual property rights to win the bidding. In market outside of China, construct sample projects for critical named accounts (NAs) and build HUAWEI brand image to drive regional storage product sales. In 2014, T series V1 and V2 are available on the market. T series V2 is the hero product featuring advanced technologies and rich software functions. Highlight the scale-out capability of mid-range HUAWEI storage products to cheapen the products of EMC. (The specification of four controllers is used to cheapen peer vendors' products. Dual-controller products are recommended in actual sales.) State that HUAWEI storage products have good interoperability and ensure data reliability and reconstruction efficiency. Besides, midrange and low-end HUAWEI storage products support SmartPartition. Launch differentiated competition in the midrange market. 25

Sales strategies of unified storage products (2) Peer Vendor Analysis How to Beat EMC NetApp HDS EMC consolidates its product lines by purchasing, offering the most diversified storage solutions in the industry. The mid-range and high-end products account for 80% of EMC's total sales. NetApp offers unique file system features. NeApp is the first storage vendor that provides unified storage products and is a leader in NAS products. Moreover, NetApp products have rich software functions. NetApp's sales modes are Value Advantage Plus (VAP) and OEM out. Hitachi focuses on high-end storage arrays and its products are well accepted by customers. It has a long-term OEM cooperation relationship with HP. Hitachi's mid-range and low-end products are sold in distribution mode. Highlight our performance in SPC-1 tests. EMC products have rich software features but ordinary hardware performance. Since the performance of the Windows kernel adopted by EMC products is not high, EMC rarely participate in third-party performance tests. Promote specification-leading T series whose performance is at least 30% higher than that of EMC VNX counterparts. Employ four-controller T series V2 to cheapen dual-controller EMC products. Focus on the competition in mid-range products and avoid competition in software features. Inform independent software vendors (ISVs) of the fact that EMC has inadequate capabilities in performance tuning and secondary development in China market. Emphasize SAN advantages. The performance of Huawei's SAN products is at least 40% higher than that of NetApp products. (NetApp s SAN products do not offer ideal performance.) Focus on the competition in mid-range products and avoid competition in software and specifications. Focus on the competition in mid-range products since HDS has advanced disk array technologies and HDS products deliver high reliability. Highlight the specifications and prices of T series. The specifications of T series are two times higher than those the HDS counterparts and the T series has price advantages. Highlight the cache specifications of the T series to force HDS to resort to high-end products in the competition in midrange products. Employ four-controller T series V2 to cheapen dual-controller HDS products. IBM HP Chinese peer vendors MicroSAN IBM has a profound understanding of customers' requirements. It sells products through comprehensive industry solutions and powerful IT channel systems. HP consolidates its storage product lines by purchasing 3PAR and re-launching LeftHand. However, HP's storage marketing strategy is not clear. The market share of high-end 3PAR products increases whereas the competitiveness of HP's mid-range products declines. HP's low-end products are sold through its powerful IT channel system. Products are mainly OEMed from different vendors. Those products do not have sufficient capabilities in interoperability or unified management and they do not have rich software functions. MicroSAN originated from H3C. H3C products deliver high specifications and rich software functions. Focus on selling products instead of selling product suites (servers plus storage devices) like IBM. Highlight the cache specifications of the T series to force IBM to resort to high-end products in the competition in midrange products. Highlight high specifications, rich ports, and diversified protocols of HUAWEI storage. The hardware specifications of midrange HP products are lower than counterparts. Highlight specifications to cheapen HP products and avoid price competition. Employ four-controller T series V2 (S5500T to S6800T) to cheapen HP EVA. Highlight IDC reports and CAAI certification to cheapen products of other Chinese vendors and avoid direct competition with them. Set thresholds in terms of performance, certification, and software features when competing with other Chinese vendors. Focus on unified management and interoperability of storage products to cheapen products of Chinese vendors.

Sales support for T series V2 Phase Frontline Marketing Personnel Contact Project analysis: Hold project analysis meetings for projects that do not comply with sales scheme to learn about project requirements and determine solutions and delivery time. Market technology engineers Pre-sales development POC test Project reporting: 1. In principle, the sales of T series V1R5 do not need to be reported. However, the sales of file engines and value-added functions must be reported to regional market technology engineers. 2. The sales of S2600T disks dedicated to video surveillance must be reported to marketing representatives for quotation. 3. The sales of T series V2R1 are under control. Before sales, contact market technology engineers for technical review and quotation. 4. The scale-out feature of T series V2R2 is mainly used to win bidding. In actual sales, dual controllers are recommended. The sales of four-controller T series V2R2 must be reported to the market technology engineers for technical review. 5. The sales of products involving critical financial applications must be reported to the market technology engineers for technical review. Confirm POC test plans with customers and support the tests. In principle, POC tests must be performed for all critical projects to ensure the rationality of application scenarios.
