The trends are clear and spectacular.
We create, collect and store an immense amount of data and information at an exponential rate.

HDS is excited to be a Premier Sponsor at this year’s Gartner Symposium/ITxpo 2011 held October 16 – 20, 2011 in Orlando, FL. Attendees should expect the conference to be packed full of classes, labs, and have access to tons of information on emerging technologies. A few key examples on how the agenda has expanded from last year: Read More »

Last week I posted a review of the definitions and differences of data, information, knowledge and wisdom (DIKW) on this blog. I wanted to continue that thread to look at why it’s important to understand these sometimes-subtle distinctions.

It’s no wonder we have so much buzz around Big Data: we’ve reached a tipping point, which Michael Hay discussed in a previous blog post on how ‘Big Data Is Turning Content Into Appreciating Assets.’ I find news of discoveries and innovation based on massive amounts of data pretty inspiring, and, as you can imagine, we at Hitachi Data Systems talk about these topics among our colleagues and friends…and sometimes even to the point of annoyance among our families. (I can personally attest to a glazed stare this morning as I chatted again about this very blog post.)

Last year, VMworld was all about virtual machines. All the partner plug-ins focused on helping to do just about anything to virtual machines. From backing up to deploying virtual machines, almost every eye was on the virtual machine ball. What a difference a year makes!

I’m an idea junkie: deconstruct an old one or give me a new one and I’m happy.
That might be why the team asked me to introduce our new blog.
We all have good and great ideas and the only way to know the difference and capitalize on them is to share.

Today we announced a new set of converged data center solutions. Convergence is one of latest hot words given the industry movement recently. What’s unique about HDS converged solutions, you might ask? They’re combinations of enterprise class storage and compute from Hitachi, combined with industry standard networks, and management software that are optimized for one or more tasks. In particular, we view these solutions as building blocks upon which you can construct your private cloud – without fear of infrastructure silos. All of this falls under the broader Unified Compute Platform strategy we’ve been talking about for some time now.

Stepping Further into the Cloud
Last October, I told you about our new Edge-to-Core solution. Today, I’d like to give you an update on that and to show how we can help you step further into the cloud.

Storage Visions is an event focused on digital media storage that occurs every year just before CES. I am lucky enough to have presented at Storage Visions the past four years, and am pleased to share this year’s presentation with you here (see the bottom of the post).
During this time, the conference has increased in attendees and in number of exhibitors but continues to stay focused on the forefront of what’s next in storage technology. It only makes sense that this year the cloud was a major topic of presentations, panel discussions and the buzz around the exhibition hall.
