A taste of our alliance ecosystem

Each one of our alliance partners offers something powerful and unique.

This year’s Cisco Live is an example of this partnership in action. The conference in Las Vegas provided the perfect platform to educate a wide audience on the joint hybrid cloud solutions available from Hitachi Vantara and Cisco. By combining the power of our technologies, you can optimize your hybrid environment for better scale, resilience and reduced complexity. Everything you need to adopt emerging technologies like AI-powered automation and the latest cloud tools you need to stay ahead.

Watch this fireside chat where you can hear experts from Hitachi Vantara and Cisco discuss the partnership, now spanning over two decades.

Better together

Our partner ecosystem works together with our Center of Excellence, so we can pre-test and confidently integrate technologies that provide robust, reliable and scalable solutions for infrastructure, hybrid cloud, and data protection. Giving you the very best from right across the market. Because the best solutions are rarely created in isolation.

What does this look like?

Our latest solution through our partnership with Cisco is Hitachi EverFlex with Cisco Powered Hybrid Cloud. Providing you with a cloud experience, using on-premise infrastructure with a totally elastic consumption, so you get a scalable service to meet your business needs through every up or down. Optimizing costs and satisfying the demands on data and workloads. And because it’s managed by us, it frees up your IT team to focus on other critical areas of the business.

As a joint solution where all the hard work has been done upfront, you also get a clear TCO and a more efficient model for improved sustainability scoring.
