Virtual Storage Platform One integrates object storage and extends software-defined cloud integration to handle data demand.
Data storage company Hitachi Vantara expanded its cloud storage with new solutions available through its Virtual Storage Platform One data platform. These include a new suite that includes a quad-level cell (QLC) flash storage array with public cloud replication, and an object storage appliance.
The addition of an all-QLC flash storage array reduces the cost per gigabyte compared to other flash types, making it a more economical choice for large-scale data storage needs without sacrificing performance.
Additionally, the new object storage appliance is designed to accommodate vast amounts of unstructured data that is prevalent in fuelling AI use cases. Each object is stored with metadata which allows for easier categorisation, searchability, and data lifecycle management.
“Enterprises today are navigating an incredibly complex data landscape, with hybrid and multi-cloud environments and the growing influence of GenAI transforming how they operate,” said Octavian Tanase, chief product officer, Hitachi Vantara.
“Our latest Virtual Storage Platform One solutions are designed to address these challenges head-on, providing customers with the advanced tools they need to harness their data, drive innovation, and achieve sustainable growth. By simplifying infrastructure and enhancing scalability, we are empowering businesses to unlock the full potential of their data in ways that were previously unimaginable.”
“The addition of all-QLC flash and object storage appliance provides a compelling solution for organisations looking to manage large-scale data environments efficiently,” said, Scott Sinclair, practice director for cloud, infrastructure and DevOps at Enterprise Strategy Group. “Hitachi Vantara continues to address the pressing needs of modern IT infrastructure, which helps businesses stay competitive in an era defined by data-driven innovation.”
