    • VxFlex Ready Nodes offers flexibility in deployment options

      • HCI/single-layer architecture: A hyperconverged infrastructure model, where compute and storage reside within the same server, creates a single-layer architecture and offers TCO savings while allowing you to modernize your data center with greater efficiency.

        Two-layer model: A traditional two-layer model provides efficient parallelism and no single points of failure. Additionally, storage and compute nodes remain separate operationally, giving teams the flexibility to manage each infrastructure independently.

        Either option fits within your existing infrastructure and provides massive scalability with linear performance gains and enterprise‑grade, no‑compromise resilience.

      •  

        Quick and easy deployment: Delivered with the complex configuration steps completed and tested in a known good configuration for simple deployment.

      •  

        Enterprise‑grade resilience:  Designed for extensive fault tolerance and availability, the solution effectively handles failures of media, connectivity, nodes, software interruptions and more.

      •  

        Scalable performance:  Unlike most traditional storage systems, as the number of storage devices grows, so does throughput and IOPS. The scalability of performance is linear with regard to the growth of the deployment.
