Case Study: Birla Cellulose achieves integrated IT infrastructure and streamlined operations with Hitachi Vantara

New Manufacturing Facility Chooses a Hitachi Compute Solution to Integrate IT Infrastructure and Streamline Operations

Birla Cellulose, part of the Aditya Birla Group, set up a new manufacturing facility in Bharuch and needed an integrated IT backbone to run critical applications (document management, Exchange, warehouse and supply chain systems) with unified management, reliable storage and strong post-sale support. Hitachi Vantara answered with a solution based on Hitachi Compute Blade 500, Hitachi Unified Storage 110 and Hitachi Command Suite, implemented with services from Hitachi TrueNorth partner ITPL to ensure a smooth greenfield deployment.

Hitachi Vantara’s deployment — CB 500 servers with LPAR virtualization, HUS 110 storage (more than 11 TB capacity) and a single Hitachi Command Suite management console — consolidated compute and storage, improved application performance and enabled efficient storage provisioning and monitoring. The solution delivered end-to-end management, scalability, enhanced reliability and expected reductions in operational costs and power consumption, while ITPL’s implementation support helped ensure rapid, low-risk rollout.
