Note: Evaluator Group research of Converged Infrastructure has been discontinued. The following Product Brief has been archived and is no longer being maintained for updates as of January 2023.

Cisco and Hitachi Adaptive Solutions for CI (Hitachi Adaptive Solutions) is converged infrastructure comprised of Cisco UCS Blade Servers, Cisco switches, VMware vSphere and Hitachi’s VSP enterprise storage systems. This solution, which uses Cisco servers and switches, replaced Hitachi’s Unified Compute Platform-CI which used Hitachi servers and either Cisco or Brocade switches.

An integrated, rack-level solution, Hitachi Adaptive Solutions is designed to simplify deployment of enterprise infrastructure by configuring complete systems to support specific use cases on hypervisor and container platforms or bare-metal servers. These use cases include private and hybrid cloud, database, big data analytics, data center consolidation, etc.

Software in Hitachi Adaptive Solutions includes VMware vSphere, Cisco UCS Manager and Hitachi UCP Advisor. Optional software includes Cisco Intersight, Cisco Data Center Network Manager and Hitachi connectors for VMware Site Recovery Manager and vRealize Orchestrator.

Configurations are based on Cisco Validated Designs. Orders are fulfilled and deployed by Hitachi or authorized channel partners. Hitachi provides end-to-end support (L0 – L3) for the Hitachi Vantara hardware components, Cisco UCS servers and Cisco networking components. OEM software is co-supported by that vendor.

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
