Hitachi Vantara Launches Platform Specialized in Data Recovery
Published2018.05.23 15:14Hyosung Information Systems announced that Hitachi Vantara has released the latest platform 'HDID' (Hitachi Data Instance Director) v6.5, specialized in data recovery.
HDID v6.5 already supports customers in protecting critical databases and applications using the latest snapshot and replication technologies. This latest version enables organizations to repurpose unstructured backup data and generate revenue without impacting the primary operating environment.
Hitachi Vantara is pursuing a 'Data Center Modernization Strategy' that accelerates enterprise digital transformation by focusing on agile infrastructure, AI operations, and modern data protection. Hitachi's modern data protection technology, combined with Hitachi storage, automates integrated data protection and supports snapshot-based immediate protection, disaster recovery, Instant Restore/Full Recovery, and CDM (Copy Data Management) capabilities.
Combined with Hitachi's HAD (Hitachi Automation Director), data protection functionality is automatically configured based on data protection service level agreement (SLA) profiles, and by meeting SLAs through data protection monitoring and re-execution, autonomous data centers are implemented.
In Korea, Hitachi's data protection solution HDID has been provided as a core solution included in 'Live Protector,' a real-time integrated data protection solution package, and has expanded its scope to include disaster recovery, storage replication solutions, and operational management in addition to data protection functions provided by traditional backup solutions. In other words, it now has the characteristics of a more complete true integrated data protection solution capable of implementing data protection, disaster recovery, and storage automation with a single solution. Additionally, HDID provides modern data protection and automated recovery support services that meet stringent data availability and service level requirements.
The newly introduced latest HDID can be integrated and utilized with object storage 'HCP' (Hitachi Content Platform) as a storage repository for long-term file system backups. The value of backup data is only realized when the data is recovered, but backup data continues to generate increasing storage capacity and recurring costs. HDID v6.5 manages long-term retention and data discovery and analytics through cutting-edge data protection technology, flexible replication services that enable backup data repurposing, and governance replication services.
HDID v6.5 transfers file system backup data to HCP in native file or object format. The backed-up data can then be used by HCI (Hitachi Content Intelligence) and Hitachi's Pentaho analytics software to provide compliance-related and search capabilities, data-driven insights, and other new data management use cases.
Furthermore, by working in conjunction with storage replication solutions, it provides fast and reliable block-based data protection techniques and provides an environment where stored backup images can be directly utilized for development, inquiry, and test servers, realizing efficient cost savings based on stability and providing an optimal data governance service environment integrating file and block systems.
Peter Sjoberg, Vice President of Data Intelligence Global Field and Industry Solutions at Hitachi Vantara, stated, "Traditionally, backup data has remained dormant, occupying storage space only until a disaster occurs. An increasing number of organizations want to create enhanced value from backup data and develop various use cases such as data discovery and business analytics. Hitachi Vantara's HDID, through integration with HCP and a comprehensive data intelligence portfolio, will enable enterprises to effectively leverage these capabilities."
With the release of HDID v6.5, organizations can more efficiently utilize backup data to support various tasks including data discovery, governance and compliance, analytics, and DevOps, thereby meeting the requirements of customers, data management professionals, and backup administrators.
