In  my  experience  VMware  solutions  are  rock  solid…we’re  ready  to  nearly  double  our  Virtual  SAN  deployment.“

”EVO:RAIL  adoption  has  lowered  our  TCO  by  40%.“ ”

Key  Features• Scalable  and  modular  architecture  housed  in  a  small  form  factor– 2U/4N  form  factor  including  compute,  storage,  network  and  management  resources– Flexible  hardware  configuration  (up  to  100  configuration  options)– Linear  and  automated  scale  out  design,  up  to  16  appliances  (64  nodes)

• Fully  orchestrated  deployment,  configuration  and  management– First  VM  in  minutes  (from  power  up)  – Radically  simple  management  of  your  VM,  appliance,  cluster  and  across  clusters– Non-­disruptive  updates

• High  performance  and  resiliency– For  all  virtualized  workloads,  including  tier-­1  apps  

– Four  independent  ESXi hosts  for  non-­disruptive  migration  during  planned  maintenance  or  failure– vSphere  HA,  vMotion,  DRS  and  Virtual  SAN  for  high  availability  

• Reduce  complexity  and  support  costs,  and  time  to  recovery– Single  point  of  support  for  both  hardware  and  software– Advanced  log  analysis  capabilities

Simplified  Linear  Scale  Out

• Scale  performance,  bandwidth,  and  capacity  by  simply  adding  appliances  – Each  appliance  adds  compute,  networking,  and  storage  resources  in  minutes

• New  appliances  are  automatically  discovered– Add  to  the  cluster  with  zero  configuration

• Supports  16  appliances   (64  hosts)  in  v2
