Case Study: SiTV achieves faster media recall and 50% lower operating costs with Hitachi Vantara's Hitachi Content Platform

SiTV Builds Private Cloud for Media Assets, Improves Business Efficiencies With Hitachi Content Platform

SiTV (Shanghai Interactive Television) faced slow, labor‑intensive tape library workflows and the risk of tape‑format obsolescence as it sought to become a tapeless, cloud‑ready media platform. To speed access to original media files and improve operational efficiency, SiTV engaged Hitachi Vantara and adopted the Hitachi Content Platform (HCP) object storage solution.

Hitachi Vantara’s Global Services built a private cloud on HCP, migrating tape archives without downtime and enabling self‑service online access with features like erasure coding and WORM to reduce data‑loss risk. As a result, video recall time dropped from hours to minutes, operating costs fell by about 50%, and SiTV is now positioned to connect seamlessly to future public media clouds.
