Dell EMC PowerScale All-Flash Platforms
The PowerScale family of all-flash nodes - powered by OneFS - can drive workloads at the edge, in the datacenter or in the cloud. These nodes are available in a cost-effective all-flash form factor which deliver blazing performance and massive capacity to address the needs of the modern workloads of today and tomorrow. PowerScale is well suited to store and manage your unstructured data across all industries and vertical markets for use cases like big data analytics, HPC, safety and security, and genomics.
The PowerScale family comprises of PowerScale and Isilon scale-out file storage platforms configured with the PowerScale OneFS operating system. PowerScale OneFS provides the intelligence behind the highly scalable, high–performance modular storage solution that can grow with your business. A OneFS powered cluster can be built with a flexible choice of storage platforms including all-flash, hybrid and archive nodes. These solutions provide the performance, choice, efficiency, flexibility, scalability, security, and protection for you to store massive amounts of unstructured data within a cluster.
PowerScale Hybrid NAS platforms are highly flexible and strike a balance between large capacity and high-performance storage to provide support for a broad range of enterprise file workloads. The PowerScale hybrid platforms co-exist seamlessly in the same cluster with your existing PowerScale or Isilon nodes to drive your traditional and modern applications.
Embedded, integrated, or attached OEM versions are available for PowerScale hybrid nodes as either de-branded or re-branded solutions.
It’s not just data, it’s your business
A large portion of your data is unstructured data and that dataset is growing exponentially – not just in the datacenter but at the enterprise edge and in the cloud. PowerScale OneFS powered scale-out storage solutions are designed for organizations that want to manage all their data, not their storage. Our storage systems are powerful yet simple to install, manage and scale to virtually any size. The storage includes a choice of PowerScale and Isilon all-flash, hybrid or archive nodes to meet the most demanding business needs. And, unlike traditional enterprise storage, these solutions stay simple no matter how much storage capacity is added, how much performance is required or how business needs change in the future.
In a world where unstructured data is growing rapidly and taking over the data center, organizations are looking for ways to get more out of their data. Whether it is driving innovation, getting to market faster or creating differentiation, they want the data to start creating value. Instead of thinking of destinations for your data, you think about what the data is going to be used for, who will be using it and how the data will help you solve for their business needs. When you have a data first mindset, the goal is to get any data to where it needs to be for business needs. Whether it is all-flash Edge offerings or the cloud to take advantage of the tools and access, data must be located where it needs to be for the business
With OneFS powered clusters consisting of PowerScale or Isilon nodes, you can eliminate storage silos, consolidate all your unstructured data, store petabytes of file data and analyze them in a data first world. With up to 252 nodes in a cluster, you can scale both capacity and performance in a few minutes to meet your specific business needs—all without any additional IT burden. With the performance of all-flash node that are configured with NVMe, you can drive demanding workloads like Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Deep Learning.
