Hitachi Vantara’s Advanced IaaS Can Help Customers Reduce IT Cost and Increase Flexibility

Many organizations shifted to the cloud over the past five years, but it has become quite clear that on-premises data centers remain relevant for specific applications, workloads, and use cases. The calculus has shifted again—to hybrid cloud environments—but organizations still want the agility of public cloud, but with lower TCO and simpler operations than today.

As organizations consider the right balance in a hybrid cloud environment as they forge ahead with digital transformation, they are increasingly adopting consumption-based IT models. This shift is a lucrative opportunity for partners: The global IaaS market is expected to grow from $156 billion in 2024 to $738 billion in 2032, according to Fortune Business Insights.

To meet the rising demand for scalable, efficient hybrid cloud and consumption-based IT models, Hitachi Vantara introduced the next generation of its Hitachi EverFlex infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) to help customers modernize and transform IT operations, reduce overall costs, and increase flexibility.
