HDS vision and strategy

HDS channel strategy - Through a dedicated Channel sales model, our indirect business has grown to over 40 percent-more than 50 percent in the United States. HDS was recently awarded the Channel Champion Award as the number one network storage manufacturer to partner with based on a survey of 2,350 VARs conducted by Computer Reseller News. Over the next 18 months, we plan to double the size of our company through a focus on modular storage and by driving over half of our business through Channel partners.
Partner beyond technology strategy - Hitachi Data Systems makes the promise to be a Partner Beyond Technology because this reflects our goal to see business through the eyes of our customers. We partner with our customers to learn about their business and their current and future data storage needs in order to provide a solution that best fits their unique situations.
