ASSESSMENT TOOL:
Which director draws less power, the Brocade 48000 or the Cisco MDS 9513? Calculate environmental characteristics (AC power draw, heat generated), as well as port and bandwidth performance for the directors based on the number of blades present
EGUIDE:
If you're a small to medium-sized business, you need your storage platform to be manageable by a small IT staff and fit within your budget. This expert E-Guide provides a detailed tutorial to help you navigate the virtual storage marketplace and select the best architecture for you.
WHITE PAPER:
Fibre Channel and iSCSI storage systems are not delivering the price-performance and agility at the storage layer required to keep up with the new virtualized compute layer. This paper explores a third storage networking technology, Ethernet SAN, and why you don’t have to choose between iSCSI and Fibre Channel.
PRESENTATION TRANSCRIPT:
The combination of iSCSI and 10 Gigabit Ethernet is uniquely attractive - find out how by checking out this presentation transcript. Also learn how 10 GbE can simplify connectivity for physical, blade, virtual servers and network storage.
WHITE PAPER:
Overwhelming data growth has caused many storage administrators to move from older, legacy SANs to newer and more robust solutions. This white paper provides best practices and guidelines to follow when migrating to a new SAN technology.
WHITE PAPER:
InfiniBand defines an industry-standard implementation of remote direct memory access, protocols and kernel bypass to minimize CPU overhead allowing computing resources to be fully used on application processing rather than network communication.
EBOOK:
With Fibre Channel, iSCSI and even prepackaged storage-plus-SAN solutions available, figuring out which makes sense for your particular environment can be tricky. So, when it comes to virtual server storage, choose wisely. Learn provisioning tactics that can help organizations make the most of their storage.
WHITE PAPER:
The performance, availability, and data protection requirements associated with tier-1 applications were easy to meet when one application mapped to one server and a dedicated storage system. But a virtual world with shared infrastructure and unpredictable workloads creates new demands. Discover how NetApp solutions address this challenge.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW:
Deploying Dell’s enterprise solutions, including Dell|EMC CX4 Muti-Protocol SANs, 11th generation PowerEdge Virtualization Optimized Servers and Global Infrastructure Consulting Services (GICS) can help organizations confidently deploy, manage and protect your VMware vSphere 4.0 enviornment.
