Hitachi Data Systems (HDS) has added the Hitachi Flash Storage (HFS) A series family of all-flash arrays to its flash portfolio. The Flash Storage A series joins the recently announced all-flash Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform (VSP) F series and enhanced models of the hybrid Hitachi VSP G series.
“Hitachi has delivered a full portfolio of optimised flash solutions bound together by a software-defined approach to storage infrastructure. This gives customers the ability to optimise solutions for a particular set of use cases while getting the power and efficiencies of common management, workflows and policies across their infrastructure,” said Adrian De Luca, CTO, Hitachi Data Systems Asia Pacific.
“Customers looking to solve for the growing pressure points around cost, operational performance, and response times will be amazed by Hitachi Flash Storage. Unequivocally, it delivers the most effective cost per gigabyte with the highest efficiency, fast response times and high performance,” said Mark Poon, MD of the Hong Kong based ICON Business Systems.
Available in three models, HFS A series includes a pair of high-performance controllers and up to 60 SSDs in a single 2U tray. With up to 384TB of effective capacity and 1 million IOPS, customers can consolidate multiple applications to reduce the data centre footprint while alleviating management headaches.
Hitachi Flash Storage A series systems include user-selectable data services that cater for a variety of workloads like virtual desktops, virtual servers, real-time analytics and database environments. Advanced features and selectable data services include inline data deduplication and compression, thin provisioning, snapshots, replication and data encryption.
Customers can realise an average of 5:1 more effective capacity and optimise data reduction rates with performance through optional deduplication tuning. They can also save even more space by allocating capacity on demand with thin provisioning technology.
Hitachi Flash Storage A series arrays also provide data protection. Customers can protect data with copy-on-write snapshots per logical volume. Full clones of logical volumes can also be created and copied for redundancy.
Finally, QoS controls can be set for maximum IOPS and bandwidth consumption per logical volume to enable consistent application performance.
“With best-in-class density, capacity, and efficiency as well as selectable data deduplication and compression, thin provisioning and quality-of-service controls, the new Hitachi Flash Storage solutions will change the face of flash storage for many organisations. This is a game changer,” said Christine Zagielski, SVP, Sales & Marketing, Lumenate.
As one of the leading suppliers of enterprise flash in the industry, Hitachi has been meeting customer demand for flash technology since 2008, having shipped more than 250PB of total flash capacity and supporting the world's largest all-flash deployments for critical business applications.
