Data Storage
Dell EMC PowerStore, PowerMax, Unity XT, and PowerFlex
With Validated Designs for VCF using Dell EMC PowerStore™, PowerMax™, Unity™ XT, and PowerFlex™ , organizations can build their own hybrid cloud infrastructure, combining the best of software-defined and external storage architecture delivering a strong foundation for both traditional and cloud-native workloads. VCF supports Fiber Channel (FC) and Network File System (NFSv3) as principal storage, iSCSI/NFSv4 as supplemental storage for workload domains using PowerMax, PowerStore, and Unity XT arrays. Additionally, PowerFlex system provides a validated deployment option for workload domains as supplemental storage. These external storage options complement VCF deployments for applications with unique external storage-intensive requirements and challenges around performance and scalability.
