Back to basics: Why we need hardware-agnostic storage | #VMworld
by Marlene Den Bleyker | Sep 1, 2015
In a world full of hyper this and flash that, George Teixeira, president and CEO of DataCore Software Corp., explained how going back to to the basics will improve enterprise-level storage solutions.
Teixeira and Dustin Fennell, VP and CIO of EPIC Management, LP, sat down with Dave Vellante on theCUBE from the SiliconANGLE Media team at VMworld 2015 to discuss the evolution of architecture and the need to move toward hardware-agnostic storage solutions.
Pure VM
VMworld 2015 offers a refreshed look at virtualization and its focus on I/O and storage performance, but as Teixeira explained, “I am worried about the fundamentals, because virtualization in the early days was real pure. Extract away from the hardware and let this thing run on top.” VM-aware storage, in his opinion, is the antithesis of what virtualization should be due to the need to have flash devices tied to a VM.
Fennell discussed the CIO’s dilemma with infrastructure management. He said that infrastructure is a fundamental part of what the CIO needs to deliver, but he feels there needs to be a shift in delivery. “We need look at how we deliver services, get away from how we try to manage it and hold on and own everything,” he stated. He went on to reiterate that the end user wants applications wherever they are and on whatever device they are using.
Managing hyper convergence
Teixeira and Fennell agreed that enterprise solutions need to become scalable, interoperable and easy for the end user. Fennell likes the DataCore strategy of not having dedicated storage because companies do not need to hire experts to run or manage the infrastructure. DataCore is enabling enterprise to be independent from hardware and offering increased performance.
