BANGALORE: Hitachi Data Systems said it successfully completed the compatibility and interoperability testing of its storage supporting IBM's GDPS (Geographically Dispersed Parallel Sysplex) solutions versions 3.2 and 3.3.
“A significant number of Hitachi storage customers—in the financial services, telecommunications and travel industries, among other key sectors—rely on mainframe systems to run mission-critical applications,” said Jack Domme, executive vice president, Global Solutions Strategy and Development, Hitachi Data Systems. “The successful completion of the interoperability and compatibility testing of Hitachi’s storage systems with IBM’s GDPS demonstrates Hitachi’s commitment to this strategic segment of its storage business. As a result, users can be confident when they consider Hitachi in their data center purchasing decisions.”
Hitachi said in the press release that it has seen increased customer satisfaction and sales momentum across the globe since agreeing in May 2005 to begin product interoperability testing to validate Hitachi storage system compatibility with IBM zSeries mainframes.
The interoperability tests were conducted with the Hitachi TagmaStore Universal Storage Platform, Hitachi TagmaStore Network Storage Controller, Hitachi SANRISE Universal Storage Platform and Hitachi SANRISE Network Storage Controller.
