    I think the strong suite here is backup and recovery of data, very fast recovery times which are essential in any environment. Smaller companies who have limited budget and may not reap the tangible benefits due to smaller IT departments. Learning curve is required and with a small staff, many companies do not have the luxury of having to learn a more complex product.

    • [Hitachi Content Platform (HCP) is] well suited for needs requiring a highly secure, multi-tenant on-premise object store.
    • Exceeds expectations with respect to object level attributes and permissions
    • Has excellent S3/HS3 REST API feature set
    • Situations which require versioning and proven Immutability (certified by Governments)
    - Expensive to use for general file storage publishing where meta data, compliance, retention, versioning are unnecessary.

    • Cost structure is by capacity and is expensive
    • Some access settings are mutually exclusive for performance (REST vs. CIFS)
    • QoS by Tenant requires use of external ADC (Hitachi suggested and sold us Pulse Secure) and their support on this product offering is not up to their normally high standard

    At the end of the day, it's about return on investment with products, ease of use in the environment, support of the product. Many of these products are very good and do exactly what they say they can do, but in today's times, companies are very strict with budgetary dollars and want the most bang for the buck. HyperStore was proven thru demonstrations that it was a cohesive fit, but again it comes down to cost.

    My company has close ties with Hitachi. NetApp chargeback was more per Gig and for cost saving purposes, we had to choose HCP.

    • Best on premise solution of its' kind that encapsulates all our needs
    • ROI has been positive but it does raise questions at renewal time in terms of cost/GB vs other 2nd tier storage types
