Hitachi Vantara Announces Cooperation with NVIDIA to Create a New Industrial AI Solution Portfolio

On April 25, Beijing time, Hitachi Vantara announced its cooperation with NVIDIA to jointly create a new generation of revolutionary AI solutions. Hitachi Vantara will develop a solution portfolio called Hitachi iQ, and promote the production of targeted AI results by layered deployment of specific industry functions on its AI solution stack, so as to make the results more clear and more relevant to enterprise business.

As exciting new data intensive technologies such as generative AI set off a wave of business transformation, the already strained operating environment is facing more severe challenges. According to a recent report of S&P Global Market Intelligence, "IT infrastructure is under strain due to the resource demand of AI workload. Only one third (32%) of respondents said that their enterprises can always support internal AI workload demand." With this cooperation, Hitachi Vantara will be able to help enterprises meet market demands by creating AI functions that support hybrid clouds, thus promoting users to accelerate the acquisition of effective insights.

Sheila Rohra, CEO of Hitachi Vantara, said: "As a member of the Hitachi family, we have rich expertise in energy, transportation, manufacturing and other industry segments, so we have the ability to accelerate AI drive The ability of digital transformation. Successful cooperation is to meet the current and future needs of customers at the same time. NVIDIA takes the lead in the AI field, while Hitachi Vantara has rich expertise in future oriented hybrid cloud infrastructure solutions and services. This cooperation enables us to combine the advantages of both sides and help our customers build innovative data bases. "

Based on NVIDIA's latest AI technology, combined with Hitachi Vantara's next-generation storage platform, the Hitachi iQ solution portfolio will meet market demand by creating AI functions, thus accelerating the digital transformation of enterprises in all walks of life. Hitachi Vantara will provide customers with the data storage consumption mechanism they need through multiple consumption modes, while providing higher internal deployment performance and return on investment (ROI).

Support complex AI workloads with HCSF

The first product in the Hitachi iQ solution portfolio will be based on the latest generation of computing power NVIDIA AI Enterprise end-to-end Software The platform will be launched in the first quarter of Hitachi's 2024 fiscal year. In addition, Hitachi Vantara will also use the storage technology of the high-performance parallel file system Hitachi Content Software for File (HCSF) to release a new 5th generation accelerated storage node to provide fast storage solutions for complex AI workloads. At the same time, Hitachi Vantara will also release PCI-E based GPU products, including NVIDIA H20 and L20 GPUs.

Charlie Boyle, vice president of NVIDIA DGX platform, said: "Enterprises in all walks of life are building AI factories to try to transform data into intelligence. With the solution built by NVIDIA DGX infrastructure and software, Hitachi Vantara's customers will be able to create AI centers of excellence to optimize their generative AI strategy."

Give full play to Hitachi's operational technology and industry expertise

Hitachi is transforming to meet market demand. In 2023, the Group announced the establishment of Hitachi Generic AI Center of Excellence. As part of a broader cooperation with NVIDIA, Hitachi will focus on creating a basic model for specific operational technologies (OT). Based on this, Hitachi has become one of the first companies to develop generative AI models for specific industries to meet the market demand for data-driven digital transformation. In addition, through Hitachi iQ, Hitachi and its subsidiaries and partner ecosystem will help customers explore the potential that AI can provide to optimize their enterprise business.
