1 EMC XtremIO and the Future of Application Services K. Aggelakopoulos EMC - Sr. Systems Engineer 28 th of May

2 What Problem Are You Solving? Simple Agile Data Center Creating the 3 rd Platform Data Center Creating new application services where storage is a true enabler 2

3 XtremIO #1 All-Flash Array in the Market OVER 40PB SOLD 3

4 What Is The #1 Benefit of This Car? What Is The #1 Benefit of XtremIO? Did you consider? Only one moving part No oil changes Did in you 4.4 sec say Lowest center of gravity NEEDS Silent, zero NO emissions GAS? More interior space Five star crash ratings Tax Rebates Access to carpool lanes Did you consider? Data reduction Simpler to configure Did No tuning you or hotspots say More reliable PERFORMANCE? Green- power & space efficient Space-efficient snapshots Lowest TCO really! Entirely new application services 4

6 Architecture Matters Vblock VSPEX VMware VAAI VMware vcenter Enterprise Grade Flash (EMC VPLEX) (via VSI Plug-ins) Native Thin Provisioning Native Inline De-Duplication Purpose-built for Flash All-commodity Hardware Application Mobility/DR Space-Efficient Snapshots Scale-Out Design Multi-path Failover (EMC PowerPath) Flash-specific Data Protection 70+% Capacity Utilization Active/Active Controllers RDMA Backplane ZERO Tuning 6

7 XtremIO s Unique Architecture CONTENT-BASED DATA PLACEMENT Scale-out. Inherent balance. Data reduction. DUAL-STAGE METADATA ENGINE Consistent. Predictable. No garbage collection. XTREMIO DATA PROTECTION Superior capacity, endurance, performance. SHARED IN-MEMORY METADATA Zero impact copy services. 7
