Full Story:
EMC Corporation (NYSE: EMC) today introduced new foundational
offerings designed to support and accelerate customers' digital
transformation initiatives and address the four major pillars of
the modern data center – flash, scale-out, software-defined and
cloud-enabled. New offerings include the new Native Hybrid Cloud™
(NHC™) platform, VCE® VxRack™ System 1000 with Neutrino™ Nodes, and
major updates to DSSD™ D5™.
New technology-centric companies born in the digital era are
leveraging cloud computing, modern software development techniques
and an array of smart connected devices to enter and disrupt almost
every industry, delivering radically improved consumer experiences.
To respond, more traditional organizations must re-kindle
innovation within their own IT teams and build out new modern data
center architectures to support them. These architectures and
infrastructure are very different from what resides in most IT
environments today.
EMC Executive Quote:
David Goulden, EMC Information
Infrastructure CEO
"There is an explosion of data from connected smart devices as
sensors and telemetry are being built into every product
imaginable. To compete in the modern digital economy, companies are
embarking on digital transformations to exploit this
ever-increasing amount of data. The new EMC technologies announced
today are designed specifically to underpin these business
modernization initiatives."
