It's simple to be efficient with EMC
EMC unified storage makes it simple for you to contain information growth and satisfy the needs of your data-hungry virtual machines while requiring 20% less raw capacity. This works to your advantage when comparing EMC to other unified storage arrays. If, for some unlikely reason, EMC isn't 20% more efficient, we'll match the shortfall with additional storagethat's how confident we are.
The guarantee to end all guarantees
Storage efficiency is one of EMC's fundamental strengths. Even though other vendors try to match it by altering their systems, turning off options, changing defaults, or tweaking configurationsno amount of adjustments can counter the EMC unified storage advantage.
Here's the nitty-gritty for you nitty-gritty types
Our 20% guarantee applies to all EMC unified storage arrays.
- Based on out-of-the-box best practices
- No need to compromise availability or performance
- No caveats on the types of data you use
- No need to auto-delete snapshots to save space
Further, with our strategic partnership with Intel, EMC is able to take full advantage of the scalability, reliability, performance, and security features of Intel's Xeon processors for our unified storage platforms.
According to the Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG), the 20% capacity savings in the guarantee is likely to be "conservative" in practice because it's based on standard, out-of-the-box configurationsbefore implementing any of EMC's new, innovative storage efficiency technologies and VMware integration.
