EMC WORLD, LAS VEGAS, MAY 04, 2015 — /BackupReview.info/ — EMC Corporation (NYSE:EMC) today announced new updates to the EMC® VMAX3™ platform, the industry’s leading data service platform, fundamentally changing what has been possible with enterprise storage by delivering new levels of automation, modernization and consolidation to customers. EMC is extending enterprise data services to multiple platforms with the launch of FAST.X™, automating storage tiering across the data center.
VMAX3 is a radically new approach to enterprise storage architecture, separating software-based data services from the underlying hardware, allowing the hallmark VMAX® capabilities – local replication, remote replication, and storage tiering – to extend to other platforms from EMC and third-party vendors. VMAX3 also dramatically simplifies management at scale through service level objectives (SLOs), improving overall staff productivity and allowing them to focus on the needs of the business, rather than the management of technology.
This VMAX3 data service platform architecture allows customers to build a flexible storage infrastructure in which decisions are not bound by what is possible within a single “frame”. Customers can now choose the optimal platform for each workload while consistently protecting and managing them based on their service levels, using industry-leading VMAX capabilities.
EMC is announcing an expanded set of VMAX3 data services and capabilities that further automate, consolidate and protect mission-critical IT operations.
Key highlights include:
AVAILABILITY:
FAST.X for VMAX3 with support for XtremIO is planned for release this quarter. SRDF/Metro and FAST.X support for CloudArray and third-party storage is planned for release later this year.
CUSTOMER QUOTE
Tony Harte, Director of Infrastructure and Business Solutions, Lids Sports Group
“Over the past couple of years, we’ve seen the demands of our IT department increase as our business continues to try and evolve. Coupled with tremendous data growth, the ability to automatically tier data across multiple platforms frees time and provides us the ability to respond rapidly to the business as they take advantage of market trends and implement more pieces of their omni-channel strategy. And with the ability to automatically tier data to the cloud, we are able to save money by selectively offloading cold data to low-cost cloud storage.”
INDUSTRY ANALYST QUOTE
Mark Peters, Practice Manager and Senior Analyst, Enterprise Strategy Group
“Tiering data across multiple storage platforms is a compelling capability both operationally and financially, and should enhance the way IT looks at tiered storage. Organizations today are constantly looking for new ways to improve business operations and drive efficiency everywhere – IT included. By automating application data service level objectives across platforms, IT organizations can spend more time focusing on their business and less time on tiering their data.”
EXECUTIVE QUOTE
Guy Churchward, President, Core Technologies, EMC Corporation
“VMAX3 is a truly transformational solution that can change the way that businesses build their data centers. Separating software data services from the underlying hardware allows organizations to take advantage of fundamentally different ways of delivering enterprise storage architectures. As the industry’s first enterprise data service platform, VMAX3 delivers new levels of automation and consolidation while redefining what is possible within, and beyond the data center.”
