How do you deal with data dispersion? As your organization’s business-critical data continually experiences compound growth, you may find that maintaining a sense of control over that data is nearly impossible, especially in the age of ransomware.
The most recent found that 76% of organizations suffered at least one ransomware attack last year. As the threat of cyberattacks increases, now is the time to identify any potential weaknesses in your data protection strategy — most importantly, before bad actors find them. As mentioned before, a pervasive data estate can certainly be a weakness, so how do you adequately scale a data protection strategy that evolves with your business?

Last week, Veeam announced a new strategic partnership with Hitachi Vantara. Hitachi Vantara, a wholly owned subsidiary of Hitachi, Ltd., provides data storage, resilient infrastructure systems, intelligent data management, and AI-ready hybrid cloud storage to many of the world’s leading organizations.

Key Features and Integrations
There are several stand-out features that come to mind when thinking of what differentiates the Hitachi Vantara and Veeam solutions:
- Direct-to-Object Storage: Leverage Hitachi Content Platform or Hitachi Content Platform for Cloud Scale as backup storage to easily scale with your business as your data grows. Object storage provides performant and immutable storage at a cost-effective price point.

- Object Storage Backup: Back up production object storage workloads on Hitachi Content Platform or Hitachi Content Platform for Cloud Scale. As more and more production applications like medical imaging systems (PACS) use object storage for production, Veeam Data Platform can provide these applications with robust data protection and recovery capabilities.
