D-PCR-DY-23 study help - Dell PowerProtect Cyber Recovery Deploy 2023 Updated: 2024

Dell EMC and some of its strategic partners used the exact Dell Technologies World conference to highlight significant advances in storage tech for managing and protecting on-premises and cloud-based data, but Dell kept mum on its coming "Midrange.next."

Dell EMC And Friends Showcases Latest In On-Prem, Cloud Storage

Dell EMC is expanding much of its storage portfolio with an eye on helping customers and their channel partners better manage data in cloud and other fast-changing environments. And it is counting on some of its vendor partners to help it in its quest.

During the recently-concluded Dell Technologies World conference, the company unveiled major enhancements to its midrange Unity, flagship PowerMax, and unstructured data Isilon lines, and introduced a new range of cloud storage services. It also unveiled a new line of data protection software and appliances.

Dell EMC is making the cloud a more central part of its storage offerings with the introduction of its first Cloud Storage Services, and is working with Intel to bring Optane dual-port enterprise server-class memory to its flagship PowerMax line. Dell EMC also introduced its new PowerProtect data protection software and appliance family.

However, the company was not yet ready to roll out its upcoming midrange storage array slated to eventually replace multiple current midrange lines. That new array, for now known as "Midrange.next," is likely to get its formal unveiling some time before year-end.

For a look at that mystery "Midrange.next" array, and at the technology openly touted at Dell Technologies World, check out our slideshow.

Dell EMC Opens Kimono For Peek At New "Midrange.next" Storage Coming This Year

One thing not publicly shown at Dell EMC World was a new midrange storage platform that will eventually unify and replace its legacy Unity midrange line, the midrange SC family from Dell's acquisition of Compellent, and the older PS line from Dell's acquisition of EqualLogic.

Dell EMC's many acquisitions over the years has given it a product line card with multiple incompatible and, in some cases, competing, storage lines. However, even as it continues developing both its Unity and its SC families, it is quietly working on a new single midrange line expected to hit the market by year-end, said Caitlin Gordon, senior director of product marketing for Dell EMC storage.

The multi-track development continues because of customer requirements, Gordon told CRN. "There is a massive installed base for the Unity and SC platforms," she said. "EMC has done lots of transitions in the past. We know what it takes to transition customers to new platforms."

While multiple channel sources have told CRN that the new midrange platform is code-named "Trident," Gordon said the new platform is internally known as "midrange.next." However, it is likely to come with Power as part of its name, given that it will sit between the entry-level PowerVault and flagship PowerMax, she said.

Cloud Storage Services

Dell EMC introduced Dell EMC Cloud Storage Services as a way to extend data center storage services to public clouds in conjunction with its Unity XT, PowerMax, and Isilon lines.

Dell EMC will initially support two use cases with Cloud Storage Services. The first is an automated disaster recovery-as-a-service supporting the Unity and the PowerMax platforms, and the second is multi-cloud access for use in bursting to the cloud for things like workload analytics and test/dev.

Cloud Storage Service is currently available in North America.

"[These will] help our customers extend their data centers from on-premises into the cloud," Grocott said. "Our Cloud Storage Services deliver the performance and resiliency of the Dell EMC storage that [customers] would expect on-prem, but now can leverage and take advantage of the agility of the public cloud's compute in an as-a-service model."

PowerMax

Dell EMC introduced several major enhancements to its flagship PowerMax line in addition to its ability to work with Cloud Storage Services.

The biggest is the introduction of a new storage-class memory technology for a big jump in performance. That technology was jointly developed by Dell EMC and Intel and based on Intel's Optane technology, and first introduced at Dell Technologies World.

Gordon said PowerMax will be the first scale-out storage platform to ship with Intel's dual-port, enterprise-class storage-class memory device. "Intel has made its storage-class memory available for PCs and servers, but this is the first to be available inside a storage device like the PowerMax," she said.

Also new with PowerMax is a big expansion into automation with a new plug-in for VMware's vRealize Orchestrator, or vRO, to automate workflow. Support for Ansible playbooks will be added this Summer.

This Summer will also see compatibility with the new Container Storage Interface, or CSI, making PowerMax the only platform to support everything from mainframes to containers, Gordon said.

Unity XT

The Dell EMC Unity XT, the latest in the company's Unity midrange storage line, is aimed at improved performance and efficiency, as well as to help clients more quickly move to multi-cloud infrastructures.

Unity XT features a combination of software enhancements and the latest generation of Intel processors to double the performance of the previous generation of Unity. It is slated to ship in the second quarter of 2019.

The Unity XT is NVMe-ready, Grocott said. "Customers over time to will be able to seamlessly and non-disruptively add NVMe drives to their Unity XT system," he said.

"NVMe-ready" means that customers in about a year after Unity XT is released will be able to do a non-disruptive software upgrade to take advantage of the high-performance NVMe protocol, Gordon said.

Unity XT officially features a 5-to-1 data reduction capability, although many customers see more, Gordan. Dell EMC offers a guaranteed 3-to-1 data reduction guarantee, as long as the data in question does not contain large amounts of photographs or other files which are very difficult if not impossible to deduplicate or compress, she said.

Isilon OneFS 8.2

Dell EMC introduced the Isilon OneFS version 8.2 software and hardware to help provide customers with the scalability and performance need to manage the massive deluge of unstructured data they are continuing to see, particularly with the new kinds of workloads including artificial intelligence, Grocott said.

The new version of Isilon OneFS will support an increase of 75 percent in terms of capacity to up to 58 petabytes of capacity in a single file system and a single volume compared to the previous version. Dell EMC also expanded Isilon's multi-cloud support with the Cloud Pool technology that allows data to be moved from Isilon to both the Google and Alibaba public clouds. The new Isilon OneFS technology is also being given native Google Cloud Platform support for file services, with early access scheduled to be available this Summer. By year-end, Isilon will also support Dell EMC's CloudIQ cloud-native mobile application to provider infrastructure insights and analytics.

Dell EMC also introduced a new entry-level node for the Isilon. The H5600 is a 4U chassis that can fit up to four nodes starting at 200 TBs each using 10-TB SATA hard drives.

The new Isilon OneFS 8.2 appliances and software are slated to ship some time in the second quarter of 2019.

PowerProtect Software

Dell EMC used Dell Technologies World to beef up its data protection capabilities with its new PowerProtect software.

The new PowerProtect software is Dell EMC's next-generation data management platform designed from the start as a software-defined offering that supports self-service SaaS environments in multi-cloud environments, and comes with what Grocott called "best-in-class" VMware integration to simplify protecting applications living within a VMware environment.

The PowerProtect software has native integration with VMware, Oracle, and other applications, and allows the development of a centralized governance and oversight capability while enabling long-term retention to public clouds.

PowerProtect X400

Also new at the conference was the PowerProtect X400, a data protection that comes integrated with the PowerProtect software. The newest member of the Dell EMC IDPA (Integrated Data Protection Appliance) family, the PowerProtect X400 scales up and out, and can be configured as a hybrid-disk or an all-flash appliance.

The PowerProtect X400 is scheduled to be available in July.

IDPA 4400

Dell EMC went a bit down market with the introduction of a new entry-level version of its (Integrated Data Protection Appliance) family. The IDPA 4400 can be configured as small as 8 TBs, compared to the existing model which starts at 24 TBs, and is targeted at remote office and branch office environments.

There has been some overlap between the IDPA family and the Dell EMC Data Domain family of integrated data protection appliances, particularly at the entry-level end of the Data Domain family which starts at 32 TBs of physical capacity and can actually be priced lower than the existing IDPAs. The introduction of the 8-TB version of the IDPA 4400 will help differentiate the two lines.

Pavilion Data Shows New NVMe-oF

Pavilion Data Systems, San Jose, Calif., use Dell EMC Technologies World to unveil the availability of version 2.2 of its Pavilion Data platform featuring NVMe over Fabric, or NVMe-oF. The new release features increased write performance to as high as 90 GBs-per-second, with write latency as low as 40 microseconds with RAID-6 protection. It also offers fast SWARM recovery for RAID rebuilds and consistency groups for snapshots. With SWARM, a single SSD can be rebuilt at a rate of under 5 minutes per terabyte, the company said.

The Pavilion Data Platform also includes a suite of data management capabilities including thin provisioning, snapshots, and data at rest encryption. Through disaggregated rack-scale flash, customers have the flexibility to either reuse existing standard 2.5-inch NVMe SSDs or newer higher-performance flash drives from other manufacturers.

Virtual Instruments, Dell EMC, Cisco, SANBlaze Demo Enterprise-class NVMe-oF

Together with Dell EMC and Cisco, along with Littleton, Mass-based storage testing expert SANBlaze Technology and San Jose, Calif.-based enterprise performance technology developer Virtual Instruments, got together at Dell Technologies World to show that the NVMe-oF storage protocol is ready for the enterprise. Together, they collaborated to demonstrate a complete enterprise-class NVMe-oF ecosystem from testing to deployment. The demonstration simulated an NVMe-based, workload-heavy enterprise environment. It featured Virtual Instrument's VirtualWisdon infrastructure monitoring and AIOps platform and WorkloadWisdom storage performance validation platform, the Dell EMC PowerMax NVMe storage array, Cisco MDS 9100 series 32-Gbit multilayer fabric switches and its SAN Analytics and SAN Telemetry streaming technology, and SANBlaze's VirtuaLUN storage emulation.

Faction Joins Dell EMC Select Partner Program

Faction, a Denver-based MSP with capabilities for VMware Cloud on AWS, joined the Dell EMC Select Partner Program allowing its products and services, which support part of the recently announced Dell EMC Cloud Storage Services portfolio, to be quoted and sold directly by Dell EMC sales as part of the Dell EMC Select catalog.

Faction also added support for Dell EMC's storage portfolio to its Hybrid Disaster Recovery-as-a-Service (HDRaaS) and Cloud Control Volumes (CCV) products across Dell EMC Unity, Isilon, and PowerMax. HDRaaS provides Dell EMC customers with a warm standby disaster recovery offering with VMware Cloud on AWS, while Faction CCV on Dell EMC storage provides cross-cloud storage for public cloud customers using AWS, Azure and Google Cloud Platform.

Dell EMC is making the cloud a more central part of its storage offerings with the introduction of Cloud Storage Services and is working with Intel to bring Optane dual-port enterprise server-class memory to its flagship PowerMax line.

Dell EMC is expanding much of its storage portfolio with an eye toward helping channel partners better manage data in cloud and other fast-changing environments for their customers.

The company Tuesday unveiled major enhancements to its midrange Unity, flagship PowerMax and unstructured data Isilon lines. Dell EMC also introduced Cloud Storage Services.

The company also used its Dell Technologies World conference, being held this week in Las Vegas, to unveil a new line of data protection storage software and appliances.

Sam Grocott, senior vice president of marketing for Dell EMC's Infrastructure Solutions Group, said during a pre-conference briefing that Unity XT was designed for performance and efficiency, as well as to help customers more quickly move to multi-cloud infrastructures.

"Compared to the midrange storage market, we feel we've really leapfrogged the competition," Grocott said.

Unity XT also features a combination of software enhancements and the latest generation of Intel processors to double the performance of the previous generation, he said. It is slated to ship in the second quarter of 2019.

Unity XT is NVMe-ready, Grocott said. "Customers over time to will be able to seamlessly and non-disruptively add NVMe drives to their Unity XT system," he said.

"NVMe-ready" means that in about a year after Unity XT is released customers will be able to do a non-disruptive software upgrade to take advantage of the high-performance NVMe protocol, said Caitlin Gordon, senior director of product marketing for Dell EMC storage.

Unity XT officially features a 5-to-1 data reduction capability, although many customers see more, Gordon told CRN.

Dell EMC does offer customers a 3-to-1 data reduction ensure as long as the data in question does not contain large amounts of photographs or other files that are very difficult if not impossible to deduplicate or compress, Gordon said.

She said that in all the time Dell EMC has offered a data reduction guarantee, it has not had to do any remediation for not meeting its promise.

The platform upgrade to the Unity family comes as no surprise, said Michael Tanenhaus, principal at Mavenspire, an Annapolis, Md.-based solution provider and longtime Dell EMC channel partner.

"Coming out with a new controller is a constant in this industry," Tanenhaus told CRN. "Dell EMC has to keep modernizing the technology. So it's pressing the trigger. This is both an evolutionary and a revolutionary upgrade in an incremental sense. It shows Dell EMC is continuing to enhance the family."

Dell EMC also introduced a new offering, Cloud Storage Services, for extending data center storage services to public clouds in conjunction with its Unity XT, PowerMax and Isilon lines, Grocott said.

"[These will] help our customers extend their data centers from on-premises into the cloud," he said. "Our Cloud Storage Services deliver the performance and resiliency of the Dell EMC storage that [customers] would expect on-prem, but now can leverage and take advantage of the agility of the public cloud's compute in an as-a-service model."

Dell EMC will initially support two use cases with Cloud Storage Services, which Grocott said is now available in North America. The first is an automated Disaster Recovery as a Service supporting the Unity and the PowerMax platforms, and the second is multi-cloud access for use in bursting to the cloud for things like workload analytics and test/dev.

Dell EMC has been investing heavily in storage and data protection all with a focus on integrating with the cloud, said Paul Clifford, president of Davenport Group, a St. Paul, Minn.-based solution provider and longtime Dell EMC partner.

"Cloud Storage Services is the natural evolution of Dell," he said. "They'll get it right."

Enhancements to Cloud Storage Services should be a turbocharge across all the Dell EMC storage lines, Clifford said. "Dell EMC wants to bring everything in an environment where they can communicate and share," he said.

Dell EMC also introduced several enhancements to its flagship PowerMax line in addition to its ability to work with Cloud Storage Services, Gordon said.

The biggest is the introduction of a new storage-class memory technology for a big jump in performance, she said. That technology was jointly developed by Dell EMC and Intel and is based on Intel's Optane technology, she said.

"This will be the first scale-out storage platform to ship with Intel's dual-port, enterprise-class storage-class memory device," she said. "Intel has made its storage-class memory available for PCs and servers, but this is the first to be available inside a storage device like the PowerMax."

Also new with PowerMax is a big expansion into automation with a new plug-in for VMware's vRealize Orchestrator, or vRO, to automate workflow, Gordon said. Support for Ansible playbooks will be added this summer.

This summer will also see compatibility with the new Container Storage Interface, or CSI, Gordon said. "This will make PowerMax the only platform to support everything from mainframes to containers," she said.

Mavenspire’s Tanenhaus said that while PowerMax already had the performance of NVMe drives, NVMe is only a protocol like SAS and SCSI and as such has become the next storage performance bottleneck, making new technology like the Intel Optane server-class memory so important.

"The next bottleneck in storage is the cache memory," he said. "The dual-ported Intel Optane removes that bottleneck. Server memory used as cache can maintain super-fast performance on a consistent basis. The bottleneck keeps moving. You have to follow the bottleneck and crush it."

The new PowerMax's automation capabilities are also important in the software-defined world, Tanenhaus said. "Big data and AI workloads need the automation to push the envelope on what the system has access to."

Also introduced at Dell Technologies World is the Isilon OneFS version 8.2 software and hardware to provide customers with the scalability and performance needed to manage the massive deluge of unstructured data they are continuing to see, Grocott said.

"This new version of Isilon software and hardware really focuses on delivering this next level of scale and performance for some of the fastest-growing workloads," he said. "We typically see AI workloads or autonomous driving or [other next-generation] applications really, really pushing the bar in terms of scale and performance."

The new version of Isilon OneFS will support an increase of 75 percent in terms of capacity to up to 58 petabytes of capacity in a single file system and a single volume, bringing ease of use at scale to higher-volume use cases, Grocott said.

"We're also expanding the multi-cloud support with the Cloud Pool technology that allows us to move data into the cloud," he said. "We are now supporting Alibaba as well as the Google public cloud. We're continuing to enhance the multi-cloud capabilities of the Isilon system."

Gordon said the new Isilon OneFS technology is being given native Google Cloud Platform support for file services, with early access scheduled to be available this summer.

By year-end, Isilon will also support Dell EMC's CloudIQ cloud-native mobile application to provide infrastructure insight and analytics, Gordan said. "It supports the full Dell EMC storage line," she said.

Dell EMC also introduced a new entry-level node for the Isilon, The H5600 is a 4U chassis that can fit up to four nodes starting at 200 TB each using 10-TB SATA hard drives.

The new Isilon OneFS 8.2 appliances and software are slated to ship in the second quarter of 2019.

Dell EMC also beefed up its data protection capabilities with its new PowerProtect software and appliances.

The new PowerProtect software, which Grocott called a next-generation data management platform, was designed from the start as a software-defined offering that supports self-service SaaS environments.

"It has multi-cloud connections," he said. "It has best-in-class VMware integration. We're really, really focused on simplifying protecting your applications as they're living within a VMware environment."

The PowerProtect software has native integration with VMware, Oracle and other applications, Grocott said. "It provides a centralized governance and oversight capability while enabling long-term retention to the public cloud."

It is joined by the PowerProtect X400, which comes integrated with the PowerProtect software. The newest member of the Dell EMC Integrated Data Protection Appliance (IDPA) family, the PowerProtect X400 scales up and out, and can be configured as a hybrid disk or an all-flash appliance.

"The new X400 radically simplifies deployment, scale and efficiency for the most demanding data management workloads," he said.

The company also introduced a new entry-level version of its IDPA 4400 that can be configured as small as 8 TB, compared with the existing model, which starts at 24 TB, Grocott said. It is targeted at remote office and branch office environments, he said.

The smaller configuration of the IDPA 4400 is important for helping smaller customers take advantage of the technology, Tanenhaus said.

"It's a smaller appliance, one we've been waiting for for a while," he said. "Some of our smaller customers have to choose between Data Domain and IDPA for data protection. But the entry-level Data Domain appliance starts at 32 TB of physical capacity, and the entry-level IDPA appliance was even higher. With the new version starting at 8 TB, it will be easier for customers to choose the right experience they want.”

Improve your study skills with our assistance. We provide many forms of academic help, but studying begins with you. Check out some of these resources about self-management and learning, two areas essential to your academic success.

Management

Motivation

• Motivation is the force behind all learning.  Without motivation, you may dread going to class, procrastinate, or your mind may wander during homework.  Try setting goals or learning more about your mindset in order to boost your motivation. 

Time

• Learning takes time, but you have to make time by blocking out your weekly schedule and finding the best times to study. Use a planner to keep track of daily tasks and activities. Write detailed to-do lists to keep yourself on track in accomplishing your goals. 

Productivity  

• Focus is imperative for learning, and phones and computers are both a gift and a curse. Use your time wisely by taking frequent brief breaks and avoid multi-tasking.

Self-care

• Sleep aids learning. Shoot for 8 hours, although some people need a bit more or less. When you exercise, proteins and hormones are created and released which boost learning power and memory. Eating well is important for learning, and affects sleeping and exercise habits too.

Learning

Learning skills

• Learning takes time and effort; there are no short cuts. Here are tools and techniques to help you apply that time and effort well.

Note-taking

• Remember, you should MAKE notes, not take notes. notes are most helpful when they involve active listening, and you return to them on a regular basis. Make sure to engage with your notes when reviewing by asking questions, speaking aloud, reorganizing, and discussing with classmates.

Reading

• Professors assign textbooks for a reason. reading can take time, but ti is worth it to prime your brain to the Topics you will discuss during class, and textbooks are an invaluable resource when reviewing for tests.

Test taking

• Tests are one of the most intimidating aspects of college, but with good preparation and understanding of how testing works, you can come out ahead. Remember to communicate with your professor to know what to expect, and always start studying at least 5 days ahead of the test date.

A new study suggests getting that cute dog in one's more mature years might be a good idea after all. 

Researchers from the Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou, China, found that pet ownership can be associated with slower rates of developing dementia. 

The study, published on Tuesday in JAMA Network Open, determined that owning a pet made a difference in verbal memory and fluency among adults who lived alone.

NEW STUDY SHOWS THE EFFECT OWNING PETS HAS ON OWNERS' BRAINS

The study's author, professor Ciyong Lu, said in the study that slower rates of declining verbal memory and fluency were seen in those who lived alone — but not in those who lived with others.

"Pet ownership offset the associations between living alone and declining rates [of] verbal memory and verbal fluency," he said. 

The research involved more than 7,900 participants over the age of 50, with roughly 35% of them owning pets and 27% of them living alone.

In the study, Lu said that those living alone with a pet showed slower rates of developing signs of dementia.

"These findings suggest that pet ownership may be associated with slower cognitive decline among older adults living alone," he said.

"Contrary to living alone," the authors also wrote, "pet ownership (for example, raising dogs and cats) is related to reduced loneliness, an important risk factor for dementia and cognitive decline."

Lu said that clinical trials will be necessary in order to confirm the study's findings.

Currently, more than 55 million people worldwide have dementia — with nearly 10 million new cases each year, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
