The 3D Scaling Advantage

How 3D Scaling Drives Ultimate Storage Efficiency

With the creation of data increasing exponentially, the demand on corporate IT resources is growing dramatically. At the same time the pressure to reduce staff, be more environmentally friendly and reduce costs is also increasing. While these seem to create a "no win" situation, advancements in hardware design, virtualization and better tools for the IT staff are making it possible to address these demands.

Transforming the Data Center to Information Center

Five ways enterprise storage platforms can help it make informed business decisions and turn data centers into information center

In today’s global business world, data must drive strategic decisions. Being a truly agile enterprise means giving executives access to the right information at all times, enabling them to make choices that will propel business, improve revenue streams and foster growth.

In order to enable the agile enterprise, technology platforms that store and manage essential data must evolve from static silos of information into flexible, scalable information centers. At the heart of the progressive data center is an information platform that stores all of an organization’s data—both structured and unstructured—and adapts to changing performance and capacity needs while simplifying multiplatform management.

Separating Hype from "How To"

A Practical Guide to Understanding and Deploying Cloud for the Enterprise

While the promise of cloud is heady, especially in a tumultuous business climate, there is much confusion about the different types of cloud, what they actually offer, and which, if any, will meet stringent business requirements. Knowing when and how best to deploy cloud is critical to protecting the lifeblood of the organization — the data itself. Enterprises are concerned about security beyond the firewall and gaining the most value from cloud without undergoing forklift changes to existing investments. As a global leader and longtime innovator in data center technologies and services, Hitachi Data Systems has been integrally involved in researching and maturing cloud best practices and end-toend cloud solutions. This paper focuses on separating the hype of cloud from the crux of how to deploy cloud safely and cost-effectively for the enterprise.
