The company also unveiled its new Hitachi Data Ingestor, an on-premise appliance for the storage and recovery of CIFS and NFS data on the HCP v4.

The HDI is a new “on ramp” to the Hitachi Content Platform and is integrated with HCP’s massive 40 petabytes (PB) of capacity and new data and storage management capabilities.

Miki Sandorfi, chief strategist, File, Content and Cloud, Hitachi Data Systems, said: “The new Hitachi Data Ingestor and Hitachi Content Platform directly address distributed IT customers’ pressing challenges such as getting data and users into cloud at their own pace by delivering an integrated edge-to-core cloud infrastructure. This enables enterprise organizations and cloud service providers to easily, quickly and cost effectively create a cloud-based service.”
