EMC Unified Storage is 20% more efficient that the competition. Even Erik Estrada from CHiPS knows that now.It's simple to be efficient with EMC EMC unified storage makes it simple for you to contain information growth and satisfy the needs of your data-hungry virtual machines while requiring 20% less raw capacity. This works to your advantage when comparing EMC to other unified storage arrays. If, for some unlikely reason, EMC isn’t 20% more efficient, we'll match the shortfall with additional storage—that's how confident we...

CLARiiON Flare release 29 (04.29.000.5.001) introduce support for several new features as follow: 1) Virtualization-aware Navisphere Manager - Discovery of VMware client always were difficult in earlier release but Flare 29 enables CLARiiON CX4 users and VMware administrators to reduce infrastructure reporting time from hours to minutes. Earlier releases have allowed only a single IP address to be assigned to each iSCSI physical port. With Flare 29, the ability to define multiple virtual iSCSI ports on each physical port has...

EMC is introducing a revolutionary new Virtual Matrix architecture within the Symmetrix system family which will redefine high-end storage capabilities. This new Symmetrix V-Max system architecture allows for unprecedented levels of scalability. Robust high availability is enabled by clustering, with fully redundant V-Max Engines and interconnects. The Symmetrix V-Max series is built on a revolutionary Virtual Matrix architecture. Symmetrix...

Performance tuning has always been a challenge for System administrators and Database administrators for a long time. As virtualization continues to grow in every aspect of the IT infrastructure, tuning the OS, DB or storage tends to become even more complex.Apart from CPU power and memory size, disk subsystem handles the movement of data on the computer system and has a powerful influence on its overall response. Also performance disk layout must also be designed to provide appropriate data protection with overall cost in...

For best performance with most applications, each SP should have its maximum amount of cache memory and you should use the default settings for the cache properties. Analyzer shows how the cache affects the storage system, and lets you tune the cache properties to best suit your application.A storage-system cache has two parts: a read cache and a write cache. The read cache uses a read-ahead mechanism that lets the storage system prefetch data from the disk. Therefore the data will be ready in the cache when the application...
