Star Storage launches Hitachi Unified Storage in Romania

HUS is the fastest mid-range storage system available, thus allowing private and public sector companies to achieve a high-level performance at efficient costs.

The Hitachi Unified Storage (HUS) 100 family redefines storage systems through a unique object-based file system that intelligently adds metadata for each file and enables automated tiering and migration, fast file snapshots and clones, faster replication over WAN, and fast data searches. HUS stores multiple data types with more flexibility and more balanced scalability than any other midrange solution.

The equipment offers a series of facilities that were only met in the Enterprise level so far: automated tiering, 99.999% availability, complete component redundancy and unified management of the system, from a single console.

“The long term partnership between Star Storage and Hitachi allows us to be the first launching HUS in Romania. This platform will be used in the Star Storage Data Centre, the safest data centre in Romania (Tier III – built according to the TIA 942 and Uptime Institute specifications) and will allow us to offer a new level of cloud services, with enterprise facilities. Star Storage offers its customers a scalable perspective helping them manage their critical business applications and meet their growth requirements without compromising performance, scalability or cost efficiency. This is another proof of the fact that we continually invest in the newest technologies in order to deliver real added value services to our customers.”, declares Catalin Paunescu, Managing Director Star Storage.

Together with HUS, the blade servers developed by Hitachi, present in Romania through Star Storage, optimally integrate, offering the best administration option.
