Frequently Asked Questions

The Hitachi Vantara Partner Program is designed to help partners grow faster with flexible engagement models, industry-leading solutions, and shared success. Unlike one-size-fits-all models, our program offers four distinct business tracks (Resell, Create, Manage, and Deliver), which allows our partners to engage in the ways that best align with their capabilities and business goals. Whether you're a solution provider, developer, managed service provider, or system integrator, there's a structured path that supports your growth.

In addition to a broad portfolio of infrastructure, data, and hybrid cloud solutions, partners gain access to robust enablement resources such as training paths, demo environments, sales support, and technical certification. The result is a program designed to accelerate innovation, build trust, and create lasting, profitable partnerships.

Hitachi Vantara’s partner program is built on three core values: trust, profitability, and sustainability. These pillars reflect our commitment to more than just transactional engagement: they form the dedication to long-term, meaningful business relationships. Trust means prioritizing partner value and strengthening collaboration; profitability ensures that ROI is front and center; and sustainability positions both parties to thrive in a changing global landscape.

This values-driven approach is designed to foster true alignment. Whether co-creating solutions or entering new markets, Hitachi Vantara provides consistent support to help partners drive transformation for their customers while achieving their own growth targets.

Profitability is a key tenet of Hitachi Vantara’s partner strategy. The program is designed to maximize financial outcomes through a range of benefits: deal registration discounts, Market Development Funds (MDF), performance-based rebates, and incentive structures that reward partner success. Tools like sales planning workshops, joint go-to-market (GTM) strategies, and access to lab environments further equip our partners to close deals efficiently and scale impact.

Whether you're focused on services, solution sales, or infrastructure delivery, Hitachi Vantara offers a clear path to boost market share and meet long-term ROI goals—while maintaining the agility needed to grow in competitive markets.

The Hitachi Vantara Partner Program supports resellers, distributors, ISVs, OEMs, developers, managed service providers, consultants, and systems integrators. With four engagement models—Resell, Create, Manage, and Deliver—the program ensures every type of partner has the tools and resources to succeed. The program offers four customizable business models designed to reflect the diverse ways partners operate and deliver value:

Resell: For traditional resellers and distributors, with benefits like deal registration, rebates, and MDF.

Create: Tailored for ISVs, OEMs, and developers, offering integration and certification support plus lab and workshop access.

Manage: Designed for managed service providers and consultants with flexible financial models and joint GTM planning.

Deliver: Built for systems integrators and delivery partners with a focus on services enablement, front-line support, and margin expansion.

Each model comes with dedicated tools, resources, and partner ecosystem alignment to support targeted, scalable success.

Sustainability is a strategic priority in Hitachi Vantara’s partnership approach. We empower our partners to lead with eco-friendly infrastructure solutions that reduce carbon emissions and support data center energy efficiency. From ENERGY STAR-certified storage systems to operations powered by renewable energy, We provide the tools and technologies needed to drive measurable environmental impact.

For partners, this means gaining a competitive edge by offering sustainable solutions that align with customer ESG goals. Whether in sales positioning or technical delivery, sustainability becomes a shared business advantage and key differentiator in the market.
