Unstructured data growth is exploding and shows no sign of slowing down while increasing regulations require data to be retained longer. Disparate information silos, multivendor storage systems and poor utilization of existing storage assets have all contributed to “accidental architectures.” All the while costs continue to rise.
These challenges have led organizations to seek a real solution to their data challenges; one that involves long term thinking but still delivers short term gain. The solution is a fully integrated unified storage platform to manage all block, file and content storage.
Hitachi Data Systems is leading the way in this arena. The Hitachi Content Platform (HCP), Hitachi NAS platform (HNAS), and the Hitachi Data Discovery Suite allow for convergence of all file, content, and block services, complete with a single management interface for all data. Intelligent Tiering Capabilities allow for policy based and content aware data movement across tiers, and NAS consolidation. Content Aware Search provides federated search capabilities across multi platforms including archive, HNAS, even NetApp filers. Highly scalable, and high performing, these solutions also build in block and file level replication, cluster name space capabilities, multi-tenancy, and deduplication.
For the enterprise, moving to a unified storage platform leads to significant cost savings, operational efficiencies and risk mitigation for legal discovery.
