How Dell Storage Aims to Redefine the Economics of Enterprise Storage Today and Tomorrow
WHITE PAPER How Dell Storage Aims to Redefine the Economics of Enterprise Storage Today and Tomorrow Sponsored by: Dell Laura DuBois November 2015 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Today's IT leaders face pressure to reduce infrastructure cost, increase operational efficiency, and provide faster response to the business while evolving from traditional to new IT infrastructure models. It is with these imperatives in mind that storage executives continue to move virtualized workloads to hyperconverged, cloud-based, and/or lower-cost storage approaches. The challenge for these storage professionals is in managing both traditional SAN and NAS storage environments that exist today while evolving to software-defined, server-based, and workload-driven storage approaches in the future. This IDC White Paper analyzes how Dell Storage is helping its customers meet these cost and operational challenges by laying out a vision for redefining the economics of storage. To achieve this, Dell is integrating best-of-breed technologies including flash optimization, data placement, and storage efficiency techniques into a common storage architecture, offering easy capacity expansion to reduce overprovisioning. From a solution perspective, Dell Storage is offering flash performance with the economics of disk as well as innovative licensing models. And from a platform perspective, Dell — as a leading x86 server supplier — is well positioned to leverage its server expertise to offer new storage architectures. As Dell strives to execute on its mission, the company is accelerating the availability of these optimal design attributes from across the Dell Storage portfolio. Dell Storage continues to invest in its existing storage portfolio and customer base. These investments not only provide investment protection today but also enable Dell Storage customers to transition, over time if they choose, to new IT infrastructure and software-defined storage models in the future. -
DELL INC. Darren Thomas, VP & GM of Enterprise Storage
DELL INC. Darren Thomas, VP & GM of Enterprise Storage Business Raymond James IT Supply Chain Conference December 14, 2010 at 7:15 a.m. CT Brian Alexander, Raymond James: Good morning, everybody. Welcome to the Raymond James IT Supply Chain Conference. If I haven't met you, I'm Brian Alexander, and I'm one of the analysts at Raymond James. I cover the supply chain, which includes hardware distribution and EMS. Thanks, everybody, for coming. I think this is our 11th annual event here at Raymond James. The Conference has a long tradition prior to Raymond James. I think we've been doing this for about 20 plus years. Hopefully, you'll find the mix of companies will give you unique insights into demand trends and inventory trends and come away with a lot of good investment ideas. Many of you have come a long way and braved the weather, so we really appreciate all of you being here today. Just a little bit about the lay of the land, we have a very full day. We have 18 company presentations, most of which are followed by breakout sessions. If you could refer to the pocket guides for details on times and presenters and whether there is a breakout. There are also signs outside the breakout rooms that'll let you know. We're running two tracks. Track One is this room, this is Aster Two, and breakouts for this room are right next door in Aster One. Track Two is the Whitney Room, which is just across the hall, and the breakouts for the Whitney Room are in the Manhattan Room. -
Dell Equallogic Fs7500: Unified Storage Simplifies File Sharing and Accelerates Virtualization January 2012
SOLUTION BRIEF DELL EQUALLOGIC FS7500: UNIFIED STORAGE SIMPLIFIES FILE SHARING AND ACCELERATES VIRTUALIZATION JANUARY 2012 With the introduction of the FS7500 NAS appliance for the EqualLogic PS Series, Dell customers now have a unified storage option to further reduce management overhead and improve efficiency. All too often, companies have been forced to de- ploy different storage platforms for different needs: NAS for file-based applications and user file shares and SAN for block-based applications and high-performance virtualized workloads. The FS7500 changes the game. Your unified storage solution should let you easily scale your file shares to handle today’s tremen- dous growth in unstructured data. It should also accelerate and simplify your virtualization efforts by giving you the freedom to choose the best storage protocol for each virtual workload based on your unique application requirements, skill sets, and existing storage investments. Moreover, your unified storage must handle unpredictable and spiky bursts in demand, without run- ning into traditional limits on file system size or adding more work for storage administrators. Per- formance must scale linearly with capacity, and you shouldn’t end up with islands of misfit and ineffi- cient storage due to the limitations of any one array architecture. In this technology brief, we explore how Dell’s customers can benefit from the addition of scale-out NAS to the leading scale-out iSCSI SAN storage family. UNIFIED VIRTUALIZED STORAGE: THE BEST OF BOTH STORAGE WORLDS In the virtual world, storage administrators need more from their networked storage: It must handle the massive growth in unstructured file data of various types It must help to virtualize more workloads without compromising storage efficiency Traditionally, customers have often chosen distinct storage solutions for these challenges. -
