Dell EMC gets flexible with VxRack hyper-converged infrastructure on demand
The benefits of Hyper-Converged Infrastructure are driving a transition from the traditional computing architectures to a new topology that provides more flexibility to deploy applications, according to Gil Shneorson, senior vice president and general manager, VxRail, at Dell EMC, Dell’s infrastructure group.
“With traditional storage, you either buy too much or you buy too little. And even if you plan properly, you use only part of it until you migrate that data in, and then you use all of it. … Now you have this technology where you buy small. You don’t have to plan at all, and you can automatically increment,” Shneorson said, referring to Dell EMC’s VxRack HCI system.
Shneorson spoke with host Rebecca Knight (@knightrm) and guest host Keith Townsend (@CTOAdvisor), of theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s live streaming mobile studio, during Dell EMC World in Las Vegas, Nevada. They discussed Dell EMC’s new portfolio offerings around HCI, as well the VxRack offering’s unique pricing models that allows customers to consume infrastructure on an as-needed basis. (*Disclosure below.)
A new type of skillset
In order to reap the benefits of HCI, however, business people must think differently about how to bring together technologies for storage, network and compute that have typically been separated into different organizations or planning strategies, explained Shneorson.
“It is time to consolidate practice. … Is it really true that you need to all budget for storage, budget for network? Do you have the right people that know all of those disciplines? Those that support and understand this must have a broader skillset than they did before,” he concluded.
