Hitachi Vantara, the data storage, infrastructure, and hybrid cloud management subsidiary of Hitachi, Ltd., is launching Virtual Storage Platform One (VSP One) Block High End, a next-generation, all-flash NVMe block storage solution designed to address the demands of most mission-critical business and growing AI workloads.
Completing its VSP One data platform strategy, VSP One Block High End delivers performance, scalability, cybersecurity, and data resilience, empowering organizations to confidently drive data from insight to impact, according to the company.
With seamless workload consolidation across open systems and mainframes, VSP One simplifies data management operations while delivering enterprise-grade security and sustainability, the company said.
As industries enter the era of powering the AI factory, it provides the unified data foundation to help organizations drive enhanced productivity and innovation.
"What we're seeing across industries is a tipping point where data infrastructure must evolve or risk holding back innovation," said Octavian Tanase, chief product officer, Hitachi Vantara. "VSP One Block High End goes beyond performance upgrade; it's a strategic enabler for enterprises to rethink how they capture, manage, protect, and scale data in the AI era."
VSP One is designed to address the growing complexity of data-driven operations. Built on three foundational pillars, VSP One enables:
- Secure resilience: Built-in FIPS 140-3 Level 2 certified protection, with eight nines of availability, while Hitachi's Cyber Resilience Guarantee helps achieve near-zero data loss and rapid recovery.
- Simple performance and management: All-flash NVMe architecture, supporting 50 million IOPS with hardware compression acceleration and support for up to 346TB per RU. VSP 360 provides unified data management operations with centralized fleet management, guided automation workflows, and mobile-enabled observability.
- Sustainable scalability: Future-proof data infrastructure that features a 4:1 Data Reduction Guarantee and automatically switches CPUs into eco mode during low activity periods, significantly reducing energy consumption and carbon footprint.
VSP One Block High End is purpose-built to help enterprises modernize their digital core with a high-performance data platform that simplifies operations and strengthens resilience. VSP One delivers immutable snapshots, automated recovery, and anomaly detection powered by CyberSense.
The solution also delivers enhanced speed and adaptive data reduction that maintains performance even with uncompressible data.
The platform supports consolidation of Open Systems (Block, File, Object) and mainframe workloads, scaling up to 12 controllers and 288 x 60TB SSDs, with advanced connectivity including 100G NVMe over transmission control protocol (TCP) and 64G FC.
Unified data management is streamlined through VSP 360, offering integrated fleet-wide management, simple installation, guided workflows, and mobile access. AIOps-powered analytics and observability enable faster decision-making and simplified administrative operations, the company said.
VSP One is also a cloud-enabled storage platform, supported by leading public clouds including Microsoft Azure, AWS and Google Cloud.
VSP One Block High End will be available globally in early 2026 through Hitachi Vantara and its network of partners.
