Hitachi Vantara streamlines hybrid cloud storage by introducing Hitachi Cloud Connect
By MYBRANDBOOK
Hitachi Vantara added new capabilities to its block storage offering, Virtual Storage Software Block (VSS Block), and introduced its Hitachi Cloud Connect, giving users on-premises performance and reliability along with access to public cloud services.
The vendor is looking to ease hybrid cloud deployments while increasing storage performance and scale. The new products and services are designed to provide a more seamless experience across on-premises and cloud environments, enabling the flexibility to access data from anywhere at any time.
The company also introduced Virtual Storage Platform (VSP) E1090 to its midrange storage portfolio. Hitachi's VSS Block is a software-only version of the vendor's Storage Virtualization Operating System (SVOS), the OS used for VSP storage systems.
VSS Block may help customers overcome some of the storage hurdles hybrid cloud deployments introduce by having the same OS throughout. Using VSS Block, customers will have up to 3.8 petabytes of software-defined storage capacity, which is ideal for customers running applications such as those from SAP or Oracle.
Radhika Krishnan, Chief Product Officer and General Manager at Hitachi Vantara, said, “We're addressing [the push for flexibility] using a combination of products and services that, irrespective of where it's deployed, can understand how the application is performing and come up with recommendations.”
She added, “Hitachi added its Polyphase Erasure Coding as an option to give higher performance and scalability, along with high data availability to VSS Block. Erasure coding is a data protection method that breaks data into redundant fragments in the event of a drive failure. While erasure coding consumes CPU resources and takes a toll on latency, Hitachi's Polyphase Erasure Coding is designed to strategically store data fragments more efficiently.”
