Hitachi data systems
introduces new,
enhanced flash
storage line-up
Hitachi Data Systems (HDS) has
announced new systems and
software, designed to deliver better
customer experiences and return
on investments. Powered by the
next generation of Hitachi Storage
Virtualisation Operating System
(SVOS) the expanded Hitachi Virtual
Storage Platform (VSP) line-up
delivers performance, resiliency and
workload scalability.
The new SVOS 7 has been
engineered with selectable data
services, which recognise the
customers’ need to receive
information in real time, whilst
achieving maximum cost efficiency
from their operations.
For a consistent user experience,
the SVOS features Quality of Service
(QoS), and as data levels grow, data
reduction services can be dedicated
to workloads for more predictable
response times.
Cloud tiering for all-flash VSP F
series is also available, transparently
moving files to private or public
cloud storage, reducing data centre
footprint and enabling lower, more
predictable storage costs for superior
IT efficiency.
SVOS 7 is available on all
new and existing Virtual Storage
Platform G series and F series
systems. Existing customers can
take advantage of SVOS 7 through a
nondisruptive upgrade.

Dynatrace launches enterprise ready digital
performance monitoring solution for OpenStack
Dynatrace has announced the first enterprise ready monitoring solution for OpenStack.
Dynatrace will provide OpenStack users with the ability to confidently manage and control
the performance of applications running in OpenStack environments.
Until now, businesses have had no visibility into how OpenStack infrastructure is
impacting on the performance of digital services. Dynatrace solves this by providing endto-end visibility into the service delivery chain, enabling IT teams to identify problems before
they impact the user experience. As more businesses deploy OpenStack in production, the
ability for them to quickly pinpoint performance issues will be essential.
The Openstack market is expanding and Dynatrace is wholly supporting this change,
making the transition to OpenStack smoother, quicker, and more transparent

INTEGRAL MEMORY AND NOVACHIPS
DEVELOP NEW SOLID STATE DRIVES
Integral Memory and
Novachips have teamed
up to develop their first
co-produced product, the
SVR-PRO SATA III SSD.
The new breed of
solid state drives (SSDs)
use a unique storage
control architecture,
that meets the growing
need for ‘upscale’
expansion among
enterprise data centres
and is designed to deliver
increased capacity and
performance.
At the core of the product is a new daisy-ring architecture that releases the capacity
restrictions of conventional parallel configurations. As each HyperLink NAND (HLNAND) Flash
is connected directly to the next device in the loop, each unit of flash is driving a single load,
allowing an unlimited number of devices per channel.
The SVR-PRO SATA SSD 100SRI and 200SMW models offer up to 8TB of data storage.
The 100 SRI series is geared for performance hungry applications, featuring a good balance of
low latency and read and write IOPs, ideal for video on demand, streaming, web server and file
servers. The 200SMW model has endurance in mind, delivering 11,680 TBW, ideal for servers
that constantly perform mixed workload tasks.
