The editors at CRN picked the 50 hottest data center companies of 2024, which includes tech giants, colocation specialists and edge providers.

Data center innovation is being taken to the next level in the dawning age of AI, note the CRN editors, and these 50 data center superstars are meeting challenges head on.

Market watchers predict that data center capacity will double over the next six years. That’s a huge opportunity for specialized data center providers, colocation leaders, and of course the hyperscalers.

The CRN editors named Hitachi Vantara to this prestigious list, for its enterprise data storage systems, DataOps software, converged infrastructure, and infrastructure-as-a-service offerings.

CRN called out Hitachi Vantara’s advances in the hybrid cloud space, including the introduction of the Hitachi Unified Compute Platform for GKE Enterprise, a unified platform to manage hybrid cloud operations.

Hitachi Vantara also recently teamed up with Cisco to create the Hitachi EverFlex with Cisco Powered Hybrid Cloud, a managed service offering that provides consumption-based hybrid cloud solutions to help businesses reduce their TCO and improve availability and accessibility of digital services.
