Hitachi Storage Virtualization

Unique Ability to Virtualize External Storage

Today's enterprise data centers feature storage systems and storage network infrastructures from many vendors. To leverage this disparity, Hitachi virtualized tiered storage architecture consolidates heterogeneous storage solutions in a single managed set of tiered pools. It provides the external storage with thin provisioning, advanced replication, logical partitioning and advanced virtual server support.

It also provides the performance and scalability needed to truly deliver storage services on demand for critical IT and cloud applications. Hitachi virtualization technologies allow the separation of logical views from physical assets. This enables an architecture that provides the right cost, performance, reliability and availability characteristics of storage, as needed, matched with application requirements. This means you can easily and flexibly align storage infrastructure with business requirements.
