Hitachi VSP 5000 – Product Analysis

The Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform 5000 continues the high end enterprise system with Hitachi’s virtualized storage architecture with an updated PCIe switching interconnect, newly designed controller cards, and NVMe attached devices. The VSP 5000 is a purpose-built, Intel-based hardware with the same embedded Storage Virtualized Operating System (SVOS) for the prior high-end and midrange systems.. The VSP 5200H and 5600H are hybrid systems and the VSP 5200 and 5600 are all flash systems that build on the high-end, highly reliable systems before it. Advances in the technology have increased performance with the new interconnect and NVMe devices.

The seamless continuation of the Hitachi VSP will allow customers familiar with the earlier systems to expand on their value derived from the system with the new capabilities and performance. Environments where the Hitachi VSP high end systems are used can be expanded with the new capabilities and simplified operations.

This document provides an overview and analysis of the Hitachi VSP 5000 that was announced in October 2019. HPE resells the VSP 5000, along with software options, as the HPE XP8. HPE’s software options have different names and may also differ in terms of functionality in some areas. Competitive systems that support mainframe and open systems attachment alternatives include the Dell EMC PowerMax and IBM DS8900.

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.
