EMC Symmetrix V-Max - Workload consolidation, Networked storage

Symmetrix V-Max
Consolidation of more workloads with the world’s most powerful networked storage

EMC Symmetrix V-Max provides high-end storage for the virtual data center. Symmetrix V-Max scales up to 2 PB of usable protected capacity and supplies the power to consolidate more workloads with a much smaller footprint than alternative arrays.

Its innovative EMC Symmetrix Virtual Matrix Architecture™ seamlessly scales performance, capacity, and connectivity on demand to meet all application requirements. Symmetrix V-Max can be deployed with Flash, Fibre Channel, and Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) drives. It supports virtualized and physical servers including open systems, mainframe, and System i hosts.
