According to the company, the Hitachi NAS Platform offers up to two petabytes of capacity and 100K IOPS per node, which enables consolidation for midrange companies.

The Hitachi NAS Platform is optimized with Hitachi storage systems and the Hitachi Storage Command Suite, offering customers a single console for management of unified NAS and SAN environments.

Additionally, it is integrated with commercial application environments such as Microsoft Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and Oracle while used in VMware vSphere environments, the company claimed.

The Hitachi NAS Platform is designed for data-driven organizations and is suited for healthcare applications, according to the company.

The platform is available through Hitachi direct sales and channel partners.
