Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform


Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform combined with Hitachi Command Suite management software transforms the data center, making IT more agile:

  • The only 3D scaling storage platform designed for all data types
  • The only storage architecture to flexibly adapt data storage infrastructures for performance, capacity and multivendor storage, which optimizes return on storage assets
  • Data mobility to reduce business impact when adapting to change
  • Highly efficient design for top performance and capacity combined with lowest power and cooling requirements
  • Unique dynamic tiering for data mobility across virtual storage tiers for block, file and content data

3D scaling delivers a storage environment that is more reliable, dynamic and open.

  • More reliable, thanks to leading data protection and high availability capabilities
  • More dynamic, because data placement and the addition of resources is automated
  • More open, due to support for a wide variety of operating systems, data types, storage and server environments

  • Up to 256 flash drives supported for exceptional performance
  • Unmatched multiplatform connectivity with up to 192 Fibre Channel 8Gb host ports, 192 IBM® FICON® 8Gb host ports, 88 Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) host 10Gb port and network attached storage (NAS)

Scale Out

  • Up to 8 virtual storage directors and 1TB single image global cache
  • Powered by the fifth generation Hitachi Hierarchical Star Network™ crossbar switch architecture that joins multiple control chassis under one logical system

Scale Deep
