One highly efficient and intelligent turn-key solution
Greater Aptitude
By combining storage, computing and networking into a single integrated system,
NEC's HyperConverged Infrastructure (HCI), powered by Scale Computing's HC3 software, transforms and simplifies data and storage management.
It replaces arduous fragmented infrastructure with one intuitive, centralized solution.
Built on the company's high-density dual-socket modular server - the D120h - and Scale Computing's intelligent HC3 operating system,
NEC HCI delivers cloud-like economy and scalability without sacrificing control of on-site systems.
A single pane of glass console delivers advanced visibility for increased transparency and ease of management.
