EMC Storage Solutions

Organisations face escalating demands for accessing, managing, storing and securing increasing volumes of data. Higher-performance storage capacity is therefore essential,but it  must be balanced against other considerations such as compatibility with existing solutions, future costs, capabilities and competitiveness. It is also important to recognise that servers are best used for processing, not managing and safeguarding data.

The new generation of storage technologies effectively meets the challenges of management, scalability and availability. However, the skills required to accurately design and deploy these new solutions are not ubiquitous. While a well deployed Storage Area Network (SAN) or Network Attached Storage (NAS) solution can eliminate the operational and infrastructure challenges associated with server-based or highly-distributed storage implementations, a poorly  deployed SAN or NAS environment has the potential to extend or exacerbate problems.

Advantages of Future Data storage solutions

1. Agile scaling balances performance and capacity for your specific workloads

• The flexible configuration options of Dell EMC Unity and SC Series storage solutions allow small and midsize organizations to scale to multi-node clusters (all managed from a single pane of glass) to support up to 60PB of raw capacity per cluster and over 1M IOPS on some models.

2. Automated management features simplify storage operations

• Flash storage technology optimised for midsize companies now offers pre-configured settings to automate common tasks like provisioning. Policy-driven response makes storage more “self-managing” with features like vendor-developed and tested workflow templates for recurring operations.

3. Bundled data services and software reduced costs

• Instead of paying a la carte for enterprise-class data services and software, mid-size companies can now benefit from a more inclusive, bundled data services and software model that includes compression, in-line deduplication, and zero-detect capabilities — with the base price of an array that’s licensed out to the full capacity of the system.

4. Improved cloud integration optimises availability, functionality and TCO

• Cloud-based predictive analytics platforms, such as Dell EMC’s CloudIQ SaaS application, remotely collects detailed data and uses big data analytics to increase availability and functionality, automate operations and lower TCO.

5. Post-purchase investment protection guarantees your storage (and peace of mind)

• Comprehensive post-purchase vendor programs can add significant value. The Dell EMC Future-Proof Loyalty Program includes satisfaction, efficiency, data migration and hardware guarantees. This program also provides predictable, low maintenance costs over the life of your storage solution

EMC benefits of Data Domain protection storage

• Dell EMC said the new generation of Dell EMC Data Domain protection storage systems offers new scalability as well as enhanced protection for virtual environments and efficiency for tiering long-term retention data to the cloud.
• The deployment of the new Data Domain Cloud Tier software within Data Domain increases the total volume of data that can be managed through a single appliance by 200 percent, with a maximum logical capacity of 150PB.
• Data Domain Cloud Tier establishes Data Domain as the only protection storage to natively tier de-duplicated data to public, private, or hybrid clouds for long-term retention, including Dell EMC Elastic Cloud Storage and Virtustream Storage Cloud.
• The new Data Domain appliances can access protection instances of virtual machines (VMs) 20x faster. Customers are able to boot up VMs using a protection copy of the virtual machine files (VMDKs) directly from Data Domain instead of needing to restore the VM to a separate primary storage system.
• “Our four new Data Domain systems with integrated flash technology deliver new levels of scale and performance, allow customers to instantly restore large application environments and further reduce the time it takes to protect large volumes of data,” said Beth Phalen, SVP and GM, data protection solutions, Dell EMC.
• The new Data Domain appliances are powered by the next generation of the Data Domain operating system, DD OS 6.0.“Protection storage is every bit as important to us as primary storage so we have relied on Dell EMC Data Domain for many years.
• As the volumes of data that we manage grow, being able to tier data intelligently to more cost-efficient targets, such as the cloud, becomes more important to us,” said Anthony Gizzarelli, senior manager, backup and recovery operations and engineering, AIG.
