Hitachi Data Systems, a wholly owned subsidiary of Hitachi, Ltd.,
today announced version 2.1 of Hitachi Content Platform (HCP) Anywhere
that allows service providers and IT organizations to quickly and easily
deliver the most secure content mobility solution offered by HDS to
their users under their own brand. These new capabilities for file sync,
folder sharing and end-user data protection will be on display next
week at Mobile World Congress in the Hitachi booth in Hall 6, Stand
6G21. HCP Anywhere v.2.1 brings new features that allow external parties
to upload data to shared HCP Anywhere folders, enhance team folders,
and evolve beyond file sync and share with new data protection tools for
end-user files. This new release also includes enhancements that
further improve the security, ease of use, and intelligence of
underlying storage and network resources.
Today, workers -- the
producers and consumers of corporate information -- are increasingly
mobile and carry multiple devices. Balancing the information access and
usability needs of these users with the need for the enterprise to
ensure corporate information is protected and secure has resulted in a
needs gap between producers and consumers.
Whether a business is
regulated internally or by an outside organization, there are growing
requirements for businesses to be sure their organizational information
is visible, under control and secure, regardless of location or device.
HCP Anywhere directly addresses these requirements.
With HCP
Anywhere, service providers and private IT organizations can deliver
next-generation file services for their users without compromising
business expectations or the conveniences of the mobile workforce. With
the most recent release of HCP Anywhere, organizations and service
providers gain new features such as data protection and self-service
recovery of users' files and folders, secure external data sharing,
collaborative workspaces, full auditability, and better content control.
HCP Anywhere is a well-integrated, tested, and supported
solution that lets organizations easily deliver extensible cloud storage
solutions under their own brand to improve user adoption. IT service
providers, both public and private, can now offer their users these
advanced file services without having to develop them themselves.
"As
an IT service provider specializing in telecommunications and data
center services, we were able to speed our time to market for new cloud
services based on the integrated Hitachi Content portfolio. Through a
combination of Hitachi Content Platform as the core cloud storage
repository, Hitachi Data Ingestor as the cloud gateway and Hitachi
Content Platform Anywhere for file synchronization and sharing and
remote management, we were able to quickly and easily bring to market
new value added services for our customers." -- Sergio Grassi, Sales
Director, Infracom Italia SpA
HCP Anywhere has won many awards for its new capabilities. Most recently, HCP Anywhere was selected as a TechTarget 2015 Product of the Year finalist in the enterprise storage system software category. HCP Anywhere also received the TMC 2015 Cloud Computing Excellence Award and the 2014-2015 Cloud Award for Best in Mobile Solutions category.
"We
are proud to announce that HCP Anywhere is the most secure offering in
the market -- the newest release is the first HDS product to sync, share
and protect users' data. Our passion for data means we are committed to
continually enhancing the HCP portfolio, guaranteeing secure,
intelligent data management by optimizing data control and visibility."
