The portfolio is seeing a significant increase in new customers, evolving use cases and industry recognition.

"Customers are using Hitachi Content Platform to enable their digital transformation journey.

Hitachi Content Platform tackles these challenges, arming companies with the tools they need for their digital transformation journey.
Hitachi Content Platform delivers unique value to customers in that it offers a tightly integrated ecosystem of solutions surrounding the object storage platform to enable customers greater business value and benefits.
