GAIN THE FLEXIBILITY THAT DIVERSE MODERN WORKLOADS DEMAND WITH DELL POWERSTORE

A Principled Technologies report: Hands-on testing. Real-world results.
With Dell ™ PowerStore ™, you can...

This paper explores the advantages of a disaggregated infrastructure featuring Dell PowerStore over HCI, focusing on data reduction, pricing, and lifecycle management. In our testing, a Dell PowerStore solution achieved up to 3.1 times more data reduction than a solution from a vendor we call HCI Vendor U. For the same amount of effective storage, Dell PowerStore would cost 21.9 percent less over five years, while offering familiar lifecycle management tools.

Evolving storage strategies: How a disaggregated infrastructure using Dell PowerStore can support onpremises data growth while offering flexibility and choice
As the volume of data organizations must store and the complexity of the application landscape both increase, so do demands on storage. p
