Anatomy of a VXRAIL Appliance node

• An appliance has 1-4 nodes and a

chassis – Start with a fully populated appliance

– Add additional nodes in any increment

• Each node contains: – A compute blade with CPUs, DIMMs, and

NICs

– A disk pack with a cache SSD and storage

HDDs/SSDs

• New form factors coming soon!
