Hitachi Vantara, the data
storage, infrastructure, and hybrid cloud management subsidiary of Hitachi,
Ltd, today announced a new solution that combines Red Hat OpenShift
Virtualization with Hitachi Vantara Virtual Storage Platform One (VSP One). The
new offering enables organizations to reduce reliance on costly, proprietary
hypervisors and adopt a unified, hybrid cloud platform to help modernize aging
virtualization environments while delivering enterprise resilience and
performance.

The new offering comes as
enterprises face rising virtualization licensing costs, limited flexibility,
and increasing pressure to modernize. According to a recent survey, the
increasing complexity of vendor licensing and rising prices has turned routine
upkeep into a costly exercise, with nearly three-quarters (73%) of enterprises
having been audited, and more than a third acknowledging that compliance,
including managing excessive licensing, was the top issue facing their
organization.
To address these challenges, the new Hitachi Vantara solution integrates Red Hat OpenShift, which includes the Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization feature, and includes pre-validated reference architecture and a powerful VM migration tool that simplifies and accelerates the transition from legacy platforms. VSP One delivers multi-site resilience and seamless failover features that can support continuous operations during outages. The solution allows organizations to run virtual machines (VMs) and containers side by side on the same platform, reducing the need for separate virtualization infrastructure and avoiding duplicate environments, which reduces hardware, software licensing, and operational costs. Additionally, VSP One provides a unified data storage platform for block, file and object storage across on-premises systems and the cloud, which improves data visibility and offers a consistent experience wherever data resides.
