Enterprises continue to struggle with growing challenges of optimizing their IT infrastructure, including reducing costs in an increasingly competitive landscape. The complexity in managing and operating traditional data centers exacerbates these challenges, often leading to inefficiencies and increased operational costs. To compound matters, there’s a growing need to reduce operational overheads, specifically with power, cooling, and space requirements, to streamline operations and enhance sustainability efforts. A recent report found data centers across the world produce up to 3.7% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and use huge amounts of water for cooling. The report also showed data centers emitted the equivalent of 300 metric tons of C02 in 2020.
To address such massive resource demands, businesses must seek partnerships offering high-performance, energy-efficient hybrid cloud and database solutions that align with goals of cost-effectiveness, simplicity, and sustainability. Offering breakthrough performance and sustainable computing, the new Hitachi Vantara converged and hyperconverged solutions deliver the much needed high-performance, scale, and cost-reduction for hybrid cloud, database and high-performance environments.
“With increasing demand from businesses and customers to maximize the performance of business applications, organizations need innovative solutions to stay ahead. This announcement represents a convergence of expertise and innovation aimed at empowering businesses with transformative solutions,” said Octavian Tanase, chief product officer, Hitachi Vantara. “By leveraging the exceptional performance of AMD 4th Gen EPYC processors, we are delivering high-density and throughput solutions with 100% data availability guarantee that redefine industry standards.
