REVOLUTIONIZING THE MIDRANGE


NEW VNX NOW AVAILABLE! ANNOUNCED 09.04.13


"We saw immediate Oracle performance improvements, as well as all other apps. from MCx."

Director of Network Services, American Power Company

“The new VNX really unleashes the power of flash! Our application performance enhanced by 400%

compared to our current all flash array provider!” Sr. Manager, $4.9B American Financial Services Co.

Enthusiastic Beta Feedback…

"Instead of having 21 separate storage arrays for file sharing, the new VNX enables us to

centralize all those services.” Storage Architect, $1.4M Australian Healthcare Company


At any given time, only a small percentage of data is active and it shifts over time—all the time!

DATA PATTERNS ADD UP

Storage system must dynamically tune latency to shifting IO aggregate The Sum of All Workloads…

FAST VP – Dynamically moves data between FAST

VP SSDs, HDD, and NL-HDD tiers at slice granularity of 256 MB

Deploying both together ensures maximum IO granularity

VNX Block Deduplication • Deduplication of data at 8KB

granularity – Deduped LUNs are Thin LUNs

• Settable per pool LUN – Thick, Thin and Deduped LUNs supported

in a single pool

• Freed up blocks/slices are available for re-use within storage pool

• Deduplication occurs out of band to minimize I/O impact

• Considerations: – Fully supported with FAST VP and

replication technologies – Block deduplication not supported for

file or concurrently with compression
