Hitachi Data Systems (HDS) has announced a new fully integrated, software-defined data center (SDDC) rack-scale platform, powered by VMware Cloud Foundation.
Hitachi UCP RS enables customers to embrace hybrid cloud for faster time to market and pay-as-you-go economics. It also gives customers the freedom to optimize their IT investments by leveraging private and public cloud as an agile extension to their business.
Hitachi says UCP RS provides flexibility to customers to either deploy integrated SDDC stack or build their own using Hitachi’s vSAN ready node and VMware software.
Understanding the new demands placed on IT by data center modernization initiatives, Hitachi has collaborated with VMware to develop the fully integrated, turnkey system to deliver reliable IT infrastructure for hybrid cloud deployments.
Hitachi UCP RS is generally available to customers and partners now in all regions.
Alongside the launch of Hitachi UCP RS, the company has enhanced its hyperconverged system Unified Compute Platform (UCP) HC.
