Case Study: Conova Communications GmbH achieves doubled performance and 100% data availability with Hitachi Vantara

Conova Stays Competitive in Aggressive IT Services Market With High-Performance Hitachi Solution

Conova Communications GmbH, a fast-growing Austrian IT services provider operating a high-security data center in Salzburg, needed to meet customers’ fluctuating demands for storage capacity and consistent, high-performance block storage. To avoid performance issues during traffic spikes and simplify onboarding, Conova evaluated vendors and selected Hitachi Vantara to deliver an enterprise-grade storage platform.

Hitachi Vantara implemented Hitachi Unified Storage (HUS) VM and the Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform (VSP) G series (with VSP G200 for backup), delivering equipment within a week and commissioning the solution in under a month. The Hitachi Vantara deployment doubled customer performance in many cases, produced up to 50% faster batch runs, reduced backup lag, ensured 100% data availability, and simplified scaling and onboarding—helping Conova remain competitive and handle any I/O workload.
