DES, which is safer, faster, and more efficient, has great advantages over conventional personal storage and network data transmission.

Efficient transmission of massive data to the cloud
In DES, after the migration medium storing your data is received by the Huawei DC, the administrator mounts the device to the server. Then the successful verification with access keys (AK/SK) input by you triggers the data upload over high speed network. DES greatly improves the data transmission rate, shortens the time for massive data transmission to the cloud, and reduces the cost.
Robust data security
- Teleport-based DES provides military class enclosure, which ensures secure transmission.
- Signature files are generated for service orders in Teleport- and disk-based DES. A signature file is the unique identifier for matching a DES order with a device, which prevents mis-operations caused by manual matching.
- Before the data is uploaded to OBS, you need to enter the access keys (AK/SK) to trigger data upload. When the data is uploaded to OBS, SSL encryption is supported. In addition, OBS uses access keys (AK/SK) to authenticate your access and controls the access to buckets and objects in various ways, such as ACL and bucket policies. These measures ensure the security of data upload and access.
- Data transmitted by DES is stored on OBS. It is stored in shards and then randomly distributed on different disks. For this reason, even if some disks are stolen in the DC, your data cannot be completely restored with those lost disks. The security of your data storage is ensured.
Multiple transmission options
DES provides two data transmission options, which can be selected based on the data amount and data type. One is Teleport-based DES, where Teleport with high I/O performance provided by a Huawei DC is selected as the transmission medium. The other is disk-based DES, where you store data to be transmitted on your own compatible transmission medium and mail it to a Huawei DC.
Lower maintenance costs
After you store massive data in OBS buckets via DES, no maintenance personnel are required to maintain storage devices, because device maintenance and data management are processed by Huawei DCs.
Simple configuration
Teleport is a plug-and-play device with power cables, 10GE optical fibers, and 10GE network cables. Simply by configuring IP addresses, you can start data replication within one minute.
