Hitachi Vantara servers, storage and backup

We are a Hitachi Vantara reseller: VSP-opslagplatforms, HCP objectopslag, Unified Compute Platform. Delivered with the settings already on it, installed where that is needed, and with a price and lead time before you decide.

Servers and storage

What Hitachi Vantara makes

Hitachi Vantara is the part of Hitachi that makes storage, with the VSP platforms at its core. The brand is small in numbers and large in the environments where it sits: banks, insurers and government bodies that keep a storage system in place for ten years or more. That last point is why you meet it on the second-hand market long after a generation has been succeeded.

The trade-off

Why Hitachi Vantara, and where it stops

You choose Hitachi Vantara where a storage system must not fall over and where ten years is not an unusual life: the VSP platforms are built for availability and supported for a long time. The flip side is the size of the market around it; fewer people know it and fewer parties hold parts for it, so whoever picks it should arrange that in advance rather than on the day.

What the price depends on

We do not run a webshop, so there is no rate here that would not apply to your situation anyway. What is here is what the amount depends on, so you know what to send along to get one quickly.

  • Model and configurationWithin one product line the gap between the entry model and the heaviest variant is large. Tell us what the device has to do and we pick the configuration that fits, rather than the most expensive one that would.
  • The quantityOn a larger batch the per-device price comes down. Twenty at once is a different conversation from two, even when everything else is equal.
  • What has to be on itA device delivered with your settings, software and security costs more than a box, and saves an installation day per unit. That is a choice, not a surcharge.
  • Delivery and installationTo one address or to fifteen sites, with or without on-site placement, with or without taking away what was there. That difference is in the price and it is yours to steer.
  • Buying or renting, and for how longThe same equipment can be a purchase or a monthly amount across three or four years. That changes not only the figure but where it lands in the books, and it is the conversation with the most in it.

What we do around Hitachi Vantara

Supplying equipment is one thing. A network that holds on the busiest day is the work that follows.

  • Design before anything is orderedThe building and the usage first, the equipment second. A quote without a design is a guess with a price on it.
  • Configuration that is recordedSettings live in version control, so a replacement device runs like the old one within the hour.
  • Segmentation from the startGuest network, office and equipment kept apart, so one infected device does not take the rest with it.
  • Monitoring on itLines and equipment are watched, so a fault is known to us before you call.

What Hitachi Vantara plugs into

What it hangs together with in practice. If you already run these, the brand fits onto what is there instead of beside it.

  • Hitachi Ops Center
  • VMware vSphere
  • Veeam Backup & Replication

Delivered worldwide

We deliver in the Netherlands, Belgium and Türkiye from our own offices, and beyond that through our distribution partners. On a larger batch the per-device price comes down.

Frequently asked

Do you supply Hitachi Vantara on its own, without management?

Yes. We supply and configure, and whether the management stays with us is a separate choice. What we do not do is hand over a box and leave the rest to you.

Which Hitachi Vantara equipment do you supply?

The business lines: VSP-opslagplatforms, HCP objectopslag, Unified Compute Platform. What fits follows from the number of sites, the number of devices and what is coming in the next few years.

Can you take over an existing network?

Yes, and that always starts with documenting what is there. At a handover it is usually the documentation that is missing, not the equipment.
