We have been having multiple storage solutions, however they are old and was not in a position to get supoprt from the vendors as they were too old. We were looking for an option to virtulize our sotrage enviroment so that we can leverage the old storage appliances for DEV / TEST environments. Hitachi SVOS was the solution which provided us with the required feature set.

Hitachi SVOS is well suited for all environment in todays world. Storage plays a pivot role in all services provided in the current digital age. The Hitachi SVOS along with their blade proides magnificient perfromance boost which is not comparable to any vendors.
Companies which has a huge database should consider this an option to evaluate.
In addition orgnization who has a highly virtualized enviroment could also look at this product during their evaluation stage.
This product is less benfit due to its cost in an environment where they have more number of physical servers as there are other solution which can be leveraged at a lower costs as they would not be utilizing the full feature set provided by the appliance.
