In application modernization, how does one scale expertise without compromising the quality of products?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

IT services provider Hitachi Vantara LLC has an established portfolio of specialized solutions to guide digital transformations across data storage and analytics. And to maintain a quality-over-quantity approach while keeping costs in check, the company looks to a knowledgeable partner ecosystem as an extension of its own sales efforts.<\/span><\/p>\n

How will this strategy evolve as new partner types emerge across verticals, and how can Hitachi Vantara leverage this ecosystem to signal the technologies that will make the leap from what\u2019s now to what\u2019s next?<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe actually have a utility company in North Carolina whose customers are able to save on their electricity and water bills,\u201d said <\/span>Radhika Krishnan<\/span><\/a>, chief product officer of Hitachi, in a recent\u00a0<\/span>interview<\/span><\/a> with theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media\u2019s livestreaming studio. \u201cThis particular company had to contend with millions of sensors that were constantly streaming data back. That\u2019s where a partnership with [NoSQL database provider] MongoDB really paid off \u2026 we were able to leverage Hitachi Pentaho to integrate all of the data and have the data reside on MongoDB.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

During the Dec. 6 \u201cHitachi Vantara Drives Customer Success With Partners\u201d event<\/a>, theCUBE analysts will talk with Hitachi Vantara executives about the company\u2019s plans for hyperconverged infrastructures, including its expanding channel strategy and notable product\/solution partnerships. <\/span>(* Disclosure below.)<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

The appeal of data-driven solutions<\/h3>\n

Under parent company Hitachi Ltd., Vantara claims nearly 80% of the Fortune 500 as clients, looking to help organizations unlock new competitive advantages, improve customer experiences and identify novel revenue streams. The company sees a current annual revenue of around $2.5 billion, with over 6,000 employees worldwide.<\/span><\/p>\n

Recently, the company announced that its Hitachi Content Platform object storage solution is expected to grow at a\u00a0<\/span>projected rate of 40%<\/span><\/a> in Q2 2022 compared to the same period in 2021, outstripping the market compound annual growth rate of around 13.6%. This market growth is due mostly to organizations seeking data-driven solutions, according to the company.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHitachi\u2019s portfolio has evolved over the years, and the latest Hitachi VSP E Series is very attractive for midmarket customers and departments within large enterprises,\u201d said\u00a0<\/span>Pierre Munro<\/span><\/a>, product account executive at Eclipsys Solutions Inc., speaking on Hitachi\u2019s popular flash hybrid storage solution.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe strength of the Hitachi portfolio is underpinned by its go-to-market approach,\u201d Munro furthered. \u201cHitachi Vantara is really partner-focused, and they\u2019ve demonstrated more than once that they will go the extra mile to bring value to the customer and support us through the sales cycle.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Creating strategic, value-focused partnerships<\/h3>\n

Partnerships are the heart of any solutions-based expansion plan, but a balanced approach is critical to the success of the overall ecosystem. To this end, Hitachi Vantara is focused on tight integrations in order to simplify its own points of interaction across products in a world of increasing cloud complexities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Hitachi culture is unique, the depth and breadth of knowledge and experience the Hitachi engineering team has is something you don\u2019t always see,\u201d said\u00a0<\/span>Sachin Soni<\/span><\/a>, co-founder and chief technology officer of Centum Technologies. \u201cThat experience makes a big difference when I need to find solutions for my customers.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

One such <\/span>alliance<\/span><\/a> is with VMware Inc., spanning three major areas: hypberconverged infrastructure solutions, hybrid cloud and digital workspaces. The Hitachi Unified Compute Platform HC, for instance, combines storage, compute and virtualization into one appliance and is powered by VMware vSAN.<\/span><\/p>\n
