Case Study: Bumi Armada achieves 100% data availability and minimal downtime with Hitachi Vantara's Unified Compute Platform for VMware vSphere

Largest Offshore Provider in Malaysia Upgrades Data Availability, Ensures Minimum Downtime With Hitachi Solution

Bumi Armada, Malaysia’s largest owner and operator of offshore support vessels, needed immediate, reliable global access to data and near‑zero tolerance for downtime as it scaled rapidly. To address these challenges, Bumi Armada chose Hitachi Vantara and deployed the turnkey Hitachi Unified Compute Platform for VMware vSphere (including Hitachi Unified Storage VM and Unified Compute Platform Director) to modernize and consolidate its VMware environment.

Hitachi Vantara delivered a converged, preconfigured solution with active‑active redundant storage, centralized management and remote monitoring; the system was implemented in four weeks and carries a 100% data availability warranty. As a result, Bumi Armada achieved higher mission‑critical data availability, simplified administration, rapid scalability to support growth, and minimized downtime—ensuring consistent, global access to information.
