Case Study: Oncore IT achieves expanded SMB cloud services and reduced storage costs with Hitachi Vantara

Oncore IT Leverages Hitachi Technology to Gain New Cloud Revenue Opportunities

Oncore IT, a London-based managed cloud and IT services provider, needed to refresh and reinforce its storage infrastructure to expand into the SMB market after legacy LSI systems suffered disk failures and lacked flexibility for growing unstructured-data needs. To address this, Oncore IT selected Hitachi Vantara (leveraging the Hitachi Data Systems ecosystem) and deployed a converged stack including Hitachi Unified Storage VM, Hitachi NAS Platform with Hitachi Data Ingestor, Hitachi Content Platform and Hitachi Compute Blade 500.

Hitachi Vantara, working with partner Zycko, delivered a consolidated, virtualized storage and cloud-on‑ramp solution that enabled object archival and tiering, simplified management, and supported mixed legacy environments. The rollout let Oncore IT expand its service portfolio for SMBs, meet strict SLAs more reliably, speed customer onboarding, reduce time spent fixing faults and lower overall cost per terabyte — measurable improvements that opened new cloud revenue opportunities.
