Dell and EMC will become a single source for the technology requirements for enterprises. The move comes as the hyper-converged infrastructure solutions become one of the fastest-growing parts of the IT industry. The analysts state that hyper-converged infrastructure is growing at an a exponential rate, about 60 percent a year. The Dell EMC Executive briefing focuses on current and future adoption of hyper converged infrastructure to include resource, compute, integrated networking and storage and software defined networking and storage.

Dell Converged and Hyper Converged Solutions for modern Enterprises  
Rapidly scale your virtualized environment with high-performance Dell XC Series web-scale solutions powered by Nutanix. Deploy additional resources quickly and easily, expanding performance and capacity as your different projects evolve. These include:

• Desktop and server virtualization
• Test and development
• Private clouds and database applications

Build incrementally with pay as you grow, scale-out expansion, and meet future needs without over-provisioning. Based on proven PowerEdge technology and powerful Nutanix software, and backed by the exceptional capabilities of Dell Global Services and Support, the XC Series of hyper-converged appliances enable you to deploy new applications with minimal upfront investment and IT complexity.
Dell – VMare VX Rail
Turnkey hyper-converged VMware virtualization appliances

Deliver rapid value with web-scale infrastructure Run virtualized workloads and storage software on virtual machines (VMs) within o web-scale appliance. Combining CPU, memory, storage, hypervisor and networking interface functions with the software into a single chassis allows you to quickly implement scale-out performance and expand capacity at the same time, in small increments, delivering rapid value to dynamic environments.

VxRail Series delivers an all-in-one IT infrastructure transformation for a wide variety of applications and workloads. Based on VMware’s vSphere and Virtual SAN, and EMC software, the VxRail Appliance Family can increase workload capacity, performance, scalability and control with:

• Fully integrated and preconfigured appliances
• Modular building blocks that let you start small and grow as needed
• An efficient infrastructure that combines compute and storage
• VCE VxRail Appliance Family – Flexibility and choice

Flexibility and choice

The VxRail Appliance architecture is a distributed system consisting of common modular building blocks. Multiple compute, memory and storage options deliver configurations to match any use case.

Choose next-generation Intel® processors, variable RAM, storage selections and cache capacities with increased limits per appliance that allow for more flexible CPU-to-RAM-to-storage ratios.Employ single-node scaling and low-cost entry-point options that give you the freedom to buy just the right amount of storage and compute, whether just beginning a project or adding capacity to support growth

Easily scale and manage Manage storage for virtualized workloads at a VM level using policies based on the needs of each workload. Expand your storage capacity with an Dell, VMware and Nutanix Series scale-out solutions, that has enterprise-class storage management capabilities — including automated tiering, thin provisioning, snapshots and replication, and compression and deduplication. Depend on a highly available, fault-tolerant architecture with comprehensive diagnostic and self-healing capabilities.

Focus on innovation

Deploy new workloads quickly and simply with the modular and balanced architecture of the hyper-converged appliances  Shift your focus from supporting operations to strategic decision making, providing innovative solutions that meet your business objectives.

Optimize for virtualized workloads

Easily deploy and scale in small increments for desktop virtualisation without requiring deep storage management expertise. Efficiently implement private cloud deployments as well as test and development environments, managing virtual environments at the VM level rather than managing individual LUNs, volumes or RAID groups. Aggregate storage drives across all nodes, with thin provisioning, automatic compression and deduplication to increase effective storage capacity.
