EMC VNX Family Supports VMware View 5

Ability to boot 500 desktops in 5 minutes

At VMworld 2011, EMC Corporation added support of VNX unified storage for VMware View 5.

The EMC VNX Family – including EMC VNX  and EMC VNXe-support VMware View deployments in businesses of any size and scale-ranging from hundreds to thousands of desktops.

The EMC VNX Family will deliver VMware View 5 customers with new levels of performance, efficiency, and simplicity, and will enable customers to:

  • Boost Performance during log-in storms. Early test results have shown the ability to boot 500 VMware View 5.0 desktops on VMware vSphere 5 over NFS to steady state-in 5-minutes. This is 40% faster than previous published VNX and FAST Suite results on VMware View 4.5, and enabled by EMC VNX and the EMC FAST (Fully Automated Storage Tiering) Suite. 
  • Maximize Efficiency by leveraging the EMC FAST Suite to deliver the performance and capacity efficiency-automatically for VMware View 5. EMC FAST Cache allows customers to reduce the number of drives used in a VMware View environment while providing fast boot time performance. Additionally, customers can further reduce their storage space requirements in VMware View deployments with EMC VNX deduplication capabilities.
  • Simplify Management by deploying VMware View 5 whether in FC, FCoE, iSCSI or NFS environments.

"The EMC VNX Family is designed from the ground-up to optimize virtual environments. We’ve seen great results in early testing with VMware View 5, and look forward to helping customers to deploy VMware View 5 in environments ranging from hundreds to thousands of desktops," said Eric Herzog, Vice President, Unified Storage Division at EMC. "Applying EMC’s unique FAST technology to a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) enables customers to maximize the full potential of their VMware View deployment. With EMC VNX, SMBs to enterprises can benefit from the solution’s simplicity, efficiency, performance and affordability."
