BANGALORE: Services oriented storage solutions provider Hitachi Data Systems Corp. today introduced its Universal Storage Platform V.
Hitachi said in a statement that this intelligent storage services platform has the ability for 3.5 million input output operations per second (IOPS) of maximum performance. It also “substantially increases virtualized storage port performance for external storage by up to 500-percent over its predecessor.”
“The USP V takes performance to another level,” said Tony Asaro, senior analyst, Enterprise Strategy Group. “This is also innovation at its best—improving the architecture of a storage system to raise its performance at nearly all levels—in leaps. Performance is not discussed as often as it should be—if your applications don’t perform well—then your business suffers.”
Hitachi also announced, what it claimed as the world’s first 4 Gb/s Fibre Channel Switch (FSW) backplane in an enterprise-class storage platform. It provides customers with a faster and cost-effective way to process and transfer data through a storage controller engine.
