Accelerate shift to hybrid cloud "new changes" in EMC Enterprise storage

Today, industry users are applying to the hybrid cloud model, which provides flexibility and choices for cloud storage, and is informed by EMC World 2012 that EMC's "new changes" in enterprise storage portend accelerated applications on mixed clouds. EMC launches the new VMAX series Enterprise Storage Array, which consists of VMAX 10K, VMAX 20K, and the newest members VMAX 40K. The new EMC Vmax series is a comprehensive enterprise storage array product line based on a virtual matrix architecture that delivers powerful, intelligent storage solutions to help organizations of all sizes build hybrid clouds.

The new VMAX 40K is the most powerful and important product in the EMC VMAX series, with a performance of VMAX 40K 3 times times higher than other enterprise storage offerings, twice times higher usable capacity, and VMAX 40K with a new configuration with 2.5-inch SAS drives and MLC (EMLC) flash disks. VMAX 40K optimizes the global integration of the world's most demanding large data, transaction processing, data analysis, and cloud computing applications.

In addition, the new Vmax federated tiered Storage (FTS) is provided free of charge through Vmax FTS, which can be used as a capacity pool for fast VP (fully automated storage tiers that support virtual pools) or as a direct device management.

For this new Vmax 40K storage product, learn from the data that with up to 32 2.8GHz Intel Xeon 6 core processors, up to 2TB of mirrors (1TB available) and ECC-protected DDR3 DRAM, the internal exchange matrix bandwidth is twice times that of previous EMC Vmax. At the same time, the new Vmax 40K provides continuous cache misses 3 times times greater than twice times the total ioPS.

Noteworthy for large data and cloud computing applications, the VMAX 40K supports up to 4PB usable capacity, and the new high-density optional component employs a 2.5-inch SAS drive, compared to a 3.5-inch drive, configured with the same array, with only 2/3 footprint, 2/3 power consumption, Supports up to 3.2PBu of capacity.

The new 2.5-inch EMLC (multistage unit) Enterprise Flash Drive (EFDS) delivers the same performance, reliability and longevity as the SLC Efds, and the price is lower than the 3.5-inch SLC Efds. These new EMLC Efds were initially available only in the Vmax 40K high-density configuration, and the Fast VP configuration was established to reduce the cost per gigabyte and per ioPS.

It can be seen that the new Vmax 40K combined with fast VP for mainframe will help users automate the dynamic performance optimization of the flash layer, especially by leveraging the capacity of each layer to achieve performance improvement, so that users focus on providing services to customers.

For users, using a hybrid cloud to store and provide information is both flexible and dynamic to the hybrid cloud model. At EMC World 2012, the launch of the Vplex virtual storage and EMC Recoverpoint Data protection consolidation solution, compared to the previous version, has increased the performance of the new EMC Vplex by 40% and increased scalability by twice times. The solution enables a dual-live hybrid cloud deployment with Recoverpoint and Vplex.

EMC Vplex Virtual Storage and recoverpoint data protection consolidation results in the industry's first dual-live data center and third-site disaster recovery data protection capabilities, now customers can benefit from Vplex Accessanywhere? High availability of cache-related technologies and full application of Recoverpoint protecteverywhere across all EMC and non-EMC block storage systems.

Compared to the previous version, the new EMC Vplex Performance improvement of 40%, increased performance monitoring and scalability by up to twice times to help customers achieve mobility, availability, and collaboration in more IT environments, allowing different virtual servers to access the same data simultaneously, simplifying the virtual environment.

Vplex users can protect the data security of all EMC storage product lines through Recoverpoint, including the Vmax series, the Vnx series, and Vplex (local and Metro). Use Recoverpoint's continuous data protection capabilities and Vplex to provide a copy of your production data to recover data quickly and efficiently when data corruption issues occur.

In addition, Recoverpoint provides local continuous data protection and local and remote data replication with any Point-in-time data recovery capability, and after events such as data corruption, recoverpoint can quickly and easily bring databases and applications back online and increase the number of recovery points.

With mixed clouds and large data presenting two revolutionary trends, the Vmax series, based on existing high-end solutions, offers new hardware and software features tailored to a mixed cloud environment. In addition, the integration of Vplex with Recoverpoint enables a new generation of data center-required performance and flexibility to maximize data availability and data protection in the data center. With the advent of the cloud and large data, the IT industry has opened the most transformative era of all time, and EMC's new storage offerings and consolidation programs set new benchmarks in this transformative era.
