Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform to offer VMware VAAI Support

Hitachi Data Systems has announced VMware vStorage APIs for Array Integration (VAAI) support on Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform (VSP) and through the platform's unique 3D scaling architecture, can extend this capability to more than 100 virtualized multivendor storage arrays. As the first storage platform to offer full VAAI support for virtualized storage, Hitachi VSP provides a truly integrated foundation for growing VMware environments, giving customers the flexibility and scalability they need while protecting existing investments.

"While other vendors may support VAAI, only Hitachi Data Systems has the external storage virtualization necessary to address our customers' top business needs to optimize application performance and reduce IT costs," said Hu Yoshida, CTO, Hitachi Data Systems. "Competitive approaches require customers to 'rip and replace' existing infrastructures and go through the painstaking process of migrating hundreds or even thousands of virtual machines to benefit from VAAI. The 3D scaling architecture of Hitachi VSP allows customers to scale up, out and deep to take immediate benefit of VAAI to improve virtual machine density, scalability and virtualized application performance."

In a January 2011 CIO Peer2Peer Research Panel poll, 97 per cent of respondents indicated they were investing in server virtualization projects and more than 50 per cent said they planned to initiate storage virtualization projects over the next 12 months. The number one reason given to support the move to more virtualization-focussed initiatives was the need to remedy existing storage and server resource inefficiencies. Hitachi VSP is the only solution available today that cost-effectively solves these challenges.
