Aiming to help customers on their digital transformation journey, Dell EMC has announced the latest iteration of the VxBlock System, looking to provide a streamlined approach.
The VxBlock System 1000 has been specifically designed to support all workloads by making a full spectrum of storage options available to the user. In addition to this, the latest system will provide more options for data protection.
An improvement in server scalability is also out outcome intended by Dell EMC, the system will allow a mixture of storage arrays to be used, including Isilon, VMAX, XtremIO and Dell EMC Unity. Another expected outcome noted by Dell EMC is a 60 per cent reduction in rack space.
In a statement, Dell EMC Storage Division president Jeff Boudreau said: “When customers deploy converged infrastructure, what they are really looking to do is invest in technology that removes datacentre cost while, ultimately, improving outcomes.”
“Our role is to deliver converged infrastructure innovation that has the right mix and capacity of IT resources and data services that evolving applications require, but with pooled resources, so the datacentre is more efficient even as workload requirements change,” Boudreau said.
