Hitachi Content Platform

Enabling Digital Transformation

SANTA CLARA, CA--(Marketwired - May 25, 2016) - The Hitachi Content Platform (HCP) is an object-based storage solution and is one of the foundational elements for data management. It's been demonstrated to drive digital transformation and a building block in driving IT automation. With over 1,500 global customers, HCP is one of the fastest growing solutions in our portfolio. The use cases for HCP are as diverse as the businesses we serve whether it is the foundation for cloud services, workforce mobility, security, compliance or simply as a robust content repository.

A recent study from IDC validates how the Hitachi Content Platform addresses these digital transformation requirements for 3rd Platform workloads and applications. From the report:

"There are a few storage suppliers that have a robust solution to integrate the requirements of the new and existing applications. Hitachi Data Systems' (HDS') object-based storage solution, Hitachi Content Platform (HCP), combined with Hitachi Data Ingestor (HDI) and Hitachi Anywhere, brings to market a robust solution that meets the demands of the 3rd Platform while maintaining the requirements of existing applications."

Powering Digital Transformation

The real strength of HCP is the ability to handle all kinds of data and almost any application and is a real asset to empower DevOps by automating routine IT tasks. It's highly reliable, scales massively, provides seamless data mobility and storage across private clouds and public cloud services, encryption, access control, easy provisioning, chargeback measurement and more.

Massive Scalability and Broad Public Cloud Support

At its core, HCP is a singular, massively scalable solution (up to 497 PB per cluster) for storing data from multiple applications and data sources. Unlike some other object storage solutions, it can also scale independently for either performance or capacity. Along with a tightly integrated Enterprise File Sync-n-Share solution (HCP Anywhere) and cloud gateway (HDI), the HCP portfolio is a foundational element to enable digital transformation. Policy-based automation provides significant cost benefits and enables easy data movement to a choice of lower cost on-premises storage, offsite to a public cloud provider or a combination of both. Hybrid cloud support includes Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, Microsoft Azure, Verizon Cloud, as well as our own Hitachi Cloud Service for Content Archiving and any public cloud that supports S3.
