Hitachi Content Platform Architecture Fundamentals

Organizations are swiftly assessing and adopting new technologies and information management practices to defend against and ultimately transcend digital disruptors that are emerging across every industry. Initiatives such as cloud, big data, mobile and social are no longer just buzz, but imminent.

With the IT landscape continuing to evolve, ensuring the right data is at the right place at the right time is a serious challenge. New technologies, third-party applications and mobile devices mean data is everywhere and constantly changing. The challenge becomes how to retain security, control and visibility of that data, at all times.

A secure, multipurpose and distributed object-based storage system, Hitachi Content Platform (HCP) is designed to support large-scale private and hybrid cloud repositories of unstructured data. The smart web-scale solution enables IT organizations and cloud service providers to store, protect, preserve, retrieve and distribute unstructured content with a single storage platform. HCP supports multiple levels of service and readily evolves with technology and scale changes. With a vast array of data management, data protection and content preservation technologies, the economical system can significantly reduce resource requirements, and even eliminate its own tape-based backups or backups of edge devices connected to the platform.
