Hitachi Vantara, Tuesday, July 29th, 2025
As artificial intelligence (AI) reshapes industries, it's quietly revolutionizing the heart of IT: The data center. The explosive growth of AI workloads is driving up power usage, challenging cooling systems, and demanding a fundamental rethink of how we store and move data.
In this new landscape, flash storage stands out - delivering the performance, efficiency, and scalability that AI needs to truly accelerate. Yet, disk-based storage still plays a crucial role for many organizations, especially where cost or archival needs dominate. This isn't about a sudden switch from one technology to another. It's about finding the right mix to support each organization's unique journey.
