HDS announces Survey Results

Hitachi Data Systems (HDS) has announced survey results indicating that India is leading in cloud storage and converged system adoption in Asia-Pacific. The survey results also revealed that more than 50% of the large Asia-Pacific enterprises that participated in the survey are not anticipating or planning for the advent of "big data". The survey results clearly indicate that enterprises need to embrace advanced cloud technologies and solutions to manage data growth, transform data into actionable information and harness its power as a strategic asset for business insight and innovation.

The survey results are published in an HDS-sponsored IDC white paper titled "The Changing Face of Storage: A Rethink of Strategy that goes Beyond the Data". The survey was conducted by IDC from August to September 2011 with 150 IT executives from large enterprises in Australia, New Zealand, China, Hong Kong, India, Malaysia and Singapore. HDS commissioned the survey to better understand their storage management challenges, needs and strategies.

"The regional survey results reveal varying levels of maturity and understanding of storage management. The challenge of ensuring data relevancy and managing data growth, which ranked among the top five common issues faced, clearly indicates that the anticipated trend toward big data is something few are ready to take on," said Simon Piff, Associate Vice- President, Asia/Pacific Enterprise Infrastructure Research, IDC.

"HDS believes that data and information must be stored, governed and managed for insight and innovation in order to drive strategic and competitive value. Embracing the latest technologies, like cloud services, not only enables enterprises to manage data growth but also to collect and connect data to create valuable information. Our three-tiered strategy of infrastructure cloud, content cloud and information cloud uses a dynamic infrastructure and enables fluid content to gain faster and more sophisticated insight and greater value from stored data," said Kevin Eggleston, Senior Vice-President & General Manager, Hitachi Data Systems Asia-Pacific.
