Dell EMC Brings New Updates to VxBlock and Ready Stack

Joining VxBlock 1000 in their converged infrastructure lineup is Dell EMC Ready Stack, a portfolio of validated designs for those who seek to build their own infrastructure solutions. With sizing, design and deployment resources, Ready Stack enables customers and channel partners to build their own converged infrastructure, with flexibility of component choice and expert guidance, all from a single trusted vendor.

It has been 10 years since the first VCE Vblock debuted, the world’s first fully integrated converged infrastructure system. In the world of IT infrastructure, it was a groundbreaking first, and it quickly evolved to become one of easiest ways for organizations to deploy a mission-critical cloud within a hybrid cloud strategy. After more than 4,500 installations, which if stacked up would nearly reach Mt. Everest’s peak, the steady beat of innovation continues for the best-selling Certified Reference Systems & Integrated Infrastructure portfolio in the industry. According to IDC Q4 2018 report, the portfolio is ranked #1 with 46% revenue share.

New VxBlock features now allow customers to:

Deliver cloud operations faster and more efficiently with new validated support for:

  • VxBlock Central Orchestration workflows with VMware vRealize Orchestrator version 7.5
  • VxBlock Central Operations analytics with VMware vRealize Operations version 7.0
  • VMware vSphere 6.7 virtualization platform

Consolidate and protect high-value, mission-critical workloads with new storage and data protection options built for efficient backup, archiving and cloud tiering, featuring:

  • Dell EMC Unity Hybrid Flash (Models 300, 400, 500 and 600)
  • Dell EMC Data Domain with high availability (Models 6800, 9300 and 9800)

Optimize high-value enterprise workloads with the added scale and performance provided by new server and networking options from our long-time partner Cisco:

  • Cisco UCS 6454 Fabric Interconnect (Gen 4)
  • Cisco UCS C480, extending the range of Cisco M5 rack servers available in VxBlock 1000

One size doesn’t fit all, and Ready Stack is another way to help unburden IT so they can focus more on what matters most to their business: innovation, new applications and new services.

The updated Ready Stack validated design portfolio will include:

  • VMware-based IaaS on Dell EMC PowerEdge MX servers and Dell EMC PowerMax storage
  • VMware vSphere on Dell EMC PowerEdge 14th generation servers and Dell EMC Unity storage
  • Microsoft Hyper-V on Dell EMC PowerEdge 14th generation servers and Dell EMC Unity storage
