Dell Technologies , the leader in enterprise storage[1], announces Dell EMC PowerStore – a modern infrastructure platform built from the ground up with superior technology and
expertise to address the challenges of the data era.
“Customers tell us a main obstacle keeping them from achieving their digital
transformation initiatives is the constant tug-of-war between supporting the ever-
increasing number of workloads–from traditional IT applications to data analytics –and the
reality of cost constraints, limitations and complexity of their existing IT infrastructure.”
said Dan Inbar, president and general manager, storage, Dell Technologies. “Dell EMC
PowerStore blends automation, next generation technology, and a novel software
architecture to deliver infrastructure that helps organizations address these needs.”
Modern Infrastructure for the Data Era
Organizations can accelerate decision making, data access and application performance
with PowerStore, which is designed for six-nines (99.9999%) availability[2]:
• Any Workload:PowerStore simplifies IT infrastructure by supporting a wide range of
traditional and modern workloads with its scale-up, scale-out architecture for block, file and VMware vVols.
• Performance Optimized:PowerStore is seven times faster[3] and three times more
responsive than previous Dell EMC midrange storage arrays[4], because of its end-to-end NVMe design and support for Storage Class Memory as persistent storage powered by dual
port Intel® Optane™ SSDs.
• Efficiency Without Compromise: Customers can save on IT budget and capacity with
always-on deduplication, compression and a guaranteed 4:1 data reduction[5].
Machine learning and intelligent automation allows for faster delivery of applications and
services with up to 99% less staff time to balance volumes[6]
• Programmable Infrastructure: Streamlines application development and reduces
deployment timeframes from days to seconds [7], with VMware integration and support for leading management and orchestration frameworks including Kubernetes, Ansible and
VMware vRealize Orchestrator.
• Autonomous Infrastructure: Built-in machine learning automates labor-intensive
processes like initial volume placement, migrations, load balancing and issue resolution.
• Infrastructure Insights: Dell EMC CloudIQ storage monitoring and analytics software
combines machine learning and human intelligence for real-time performance and capacity analysis and historical tracking for a single view of Dell EMC infastructure. Dell
Technologies will integrate CloudIQ across the full Dell Technologies infrastructure portfolio for even greater insights.
PowerStore transforms data center operations and allows organizations to evolve their
infrastructure in lockstep with everchanging business needs:
• Container-Based Architecture:PowerStoreOS, the system’s container-based software
architecture, enables feature portability, standardization and rapid time-to-market for new capabilities.
• Introducing AppsON: The only purpose-built storage array that includes a built-in
VMware ESXiHypervisor[8] , administrators can deploy apps directly on the array for greater flexibility. An industry-first, AppsON is ideal for data-intensive workloads in core or
edge locations and infrastructure applications.
• Ease of Migration: New native tools within the PowerStore Manager wizard allow customers to automate entire migrations in fewer than ten clicks[9]. Customers can take
advantage of a number of non-disruptive options to migrate from existing storage like Unity, SC, PS Series, VNX and XtremIO.
• Dell Technologies On Demand (DTOD): With DTOD, PowerStore customers can respond to
workload spikes and new service requests with elastic capacity and cloud economics. Organizations can choose between two flexible pay-per-use consumption models with
short-and-long term commitment options, including a new one year term for flexible consumption. Global support, deployment and managed services can be included to help
simplify IT infrastructure management.
Dell EMC Future-Proof Program Adds Anytime Upgrades
PowerStore is covered by the Dell EMC Future-Proof Program, which provides greater
choice, predictability and investment protection through new Anytime Upgrades, the industry’s most flexible controller upgrade program[10].
Unlike other controller upgrade programs, customers can expand or enhance their
PowerStore performance and capacity after 180 days[11]. The combination of Anytime Upgrades and Dell EMC PowerStore’s adaptable architecture effectively ends disruptive
platform migrations.
Cloud Flexibility with PowerStore
Customers can deploy PowerStore in the way that best meets their cloud strategy and business needs:
• Dell Technologies Cloud Validated Designs for PowerStore for deployment flexibility of
demanding workloads in hybrid cloud environments.
• Dell EMC Cloud Storage Services can directly connect PowerStore to all major public
clouds including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Azure and Google Cloud as a managed service. Cloud Storage Services provide Data Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) to VMware
Cloud on AWS.
• PowerStore can be deployed as a storage option within Dell EMC PowerOne autonomous
infrastructure, which accelerates an organization’s shift to cloud-like operations.
Availability
• Dell EMC PowerStore is now generally available globally.
• Dell EMC PowerStore will be available as an option for PowerOne autonomous infrastructure this summer.
