The transformation program was not as simple as the vendor had indicated.The non disruptive migration at the time was quite com-lex and intrusive. The vendor did not apply the co9rrect due dilligence therefore we had platforms unable to be deployed due to incompatibility

Performance of Hitachi VSP G Series (Legacy) Across Market Features

Hitachi VSP G Series (Legacy) Likes & Dislikes

Like

Seamless blend of high performance and ease of management. The automated data tiering and robust management tools allow me to optimize storage without constant manual intervention, while its reability ensures uptime.

Like

The resilience of the product and its new performance capabilities

Like

1. The storage consists of FMD disks which are not seen in another storages. 2. These disks provide maximum throughput and IOPS for applications and DBs such as SAP HANA, Oracle and MySQL. 3. Overall reduction ratio is 6.85:1, which is much more higher than other vendors in the market. 4. Overall cost is much lower than the other competitive products in the market.

Dislike

Complexity during the initial setup and configuration. While the platform is powerful, it can have a steep learning curve for users unfamiliar with enterprise-grade storage systems. Additionally, the cost of the system, including mantenience and upgrades, can be high, which might not be ideal when my organization has budget restrictions.

Dislike

The management tooling

Dislike

There are no such dislike about the product in terms of performance or throughput. The only thing that could be improved that there should be web browser based access for management of the storage, instead of windows based server.
