Overview:
The EMC Unity™ Hybrid product line sets new standards for storage with compelling simplicity, modern design, flexible deployments, and affordable prices– to meet the needs of resource-constrained IT professionals in large or small companies.
If you are looking for rich features with absolute simplicity in a small footprint, if you are cost-conscious and need the best from the best, EMC Unity Hybrid is for you. Designed for flash with rich data services, Unity Hybrid delivers flash performance with the cost advantage of disk and is the perfect fit for your mixed applications, unified storage and Remote-Office-Branch-Office (ROBO) requirements.
IT professionals are struggling with the ever-changing demands of their jobs – including storage management. They are experiencing data growth like never before and IT budgets are under extreme pressure. This is especially evident in the midmarket, where IT professionals are wearing many hats and becoming generalists - handling servers, networking, mobile devices, desktops, virtualization, and storage – so they are spread extremely thin. These days, IT generalists need simple, modern, affordable, and flexible storage technology to simplify and automate.
- Simple: Data growth is increasing but the IT department is not - therefore you need storage technology that automates many tasks and helps get the job done. You cannot spend time becoming a storage expert or reading a manual - it must be intuitive and simple to use.
- Modern: You need the latest technology so that you have the power to manage the latest workloads. 2016 is the year for flash, including midrange systems. So all systems must be designed with flash in mind and leverage the latest data management and mobility technologies - you don’t want to get left behind.
- Flexible: Storage solutions should be flexible enough to be repurposed for a variety of different workloads – block, file, databases, virtual environments or even as a backup target. Storage should come in a variety of deployment models from purpose-built all-flash or hybrid configurations to converged infrastructure and even virtual storage appliances.
- Affordable: Storage systems must be affordable to purchase and deliver the best total cost of ownership throughout the life of the system. And it should be cost-effective to run all your workloads on these systems.
Mixed workloads meet their match with EMC Unity 500 hybrid flash storage, part of our Unity Hybrid storage series. Like all Unity unified storage, Unity 500 is designed for organizations from midmarket to enterprise. You’re ready to deliver for the widest range of SAN and NAS workloads.
EMC Unity sets a new standard for midrange data storage: simple, modern, affordable, and flexible. We’ve engineered Unity for flash and rich data services. Dense SSD technology helps provide outstanding total cost of ownership.
