Hitachi Command Suite – Product Brief

This document is no longer maintained as of 2024

Hitachi storage management consists of specific products that perform separate functions in managing the Hitachi storage environment. Originally multiple products were collected into a solution and called Hitachi Command Suite, which was an over-arching suite of storage management tools that included storage resource management, tiered storage management, and storage system management. The expanded offering for managing storage and for monitoring and reporting on all elements in the storage infrastructure now includes:

  • Hitachi Storage Advisor – Configuration and management for Hitachi VSP family of storage systems. HSA has an easy to understand GUI and recommended configuration practices. The recommendations are Hitachi’s best practices for the VSP systems. Many of the storage tasks in managing a high-function system like VSP are automated including pool creation, port assignment, zone creation, and parity group initialization.
  • Hitachi Automation Director – HAD expands beyond the specific Hitachi devices to automate many of the tasks for the infrastructure. Virtual machine (VMware, Hyper-V, and KVM) resources may be automatically configured and assigned. Switch zoning for Brocade and Cisco can be set with resiliency and performance parameters. Specific applications can have resources assigned and QoS set at the LUN level. Data protection policies for the Hitachi Data Instance Director can be set based on best practices.
  • Hitachi Infrastructure Analytics Advisor – HIAA is a SaaS-based offering that analyzes telemetry data to detect anomalies for preventive actions, predict issues when planning for changes with use of historical data, provide correlation to infrastructure changes and performance, and monitor elements for optimizing performance. HIAA allows analysis and resolution with the collected data. Reports are generated from the multi-vendor devices monitored.

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.
