Data-driven organizations require an agile and efficient IT infrastructure to meet the demand for fast, secure, and continuous data access. A fundamental first step in undertaking an IT transformation is to modernize your infrastructure with all-flash storage to improve speed and responsiveness for critical business applications. New workloads, such as data analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), and deep learning (DL), demand extreme performance that first-generation flash systems can't deliver. Additionally, more and more organizations are adopting a “cloud first” strategy, which means they need enterprise-grade data services for a shared environment across on-premises data centers and the cloud. As a result, modern all-flash arrays must provide robust data services, integrated data protection, seamless scalability, and new levels of performance plus deep application and cloud integration.

Accelerate applications

• Speed up your critical applications with lightning- fast end-to-end NVMe enterprise all-flash array.
• Run artificial intelligence and machine learning applications with lowest latency.
• Support twice as many workloads and cut application response time in half with a modern NVMe-based SAN infrastructure.

Reduce data center costs

• Minimize your data center footprint by storing up to 2PB of data in a 4U compact system.
• Save SSD storage by 5 to 10 times with inline data reduction technologies.
• Reduce power and cooling, rack space, and support costs dramatically.

Simplify IT operations

• Unify data services across SAN and NAS environments, both on the premises and in the cloud.
• Set up and configure a complete system and serve data within 10 minutes.
• Safeguard your data with best-in-class integrated data protection and seamless cloud backup and recovery.
