Dell EMC VxRail

Designed for VMware, with VMware, to enhance VMware
Dell EMC VxRail™, the only jointly engineered hyperconverged infrastructure system with
VMware, is the easiest and fastest way to extend a VMware environment. Powered by
VMware vSANTM and managed through the VMware vCenter interface, VxRail provides
existing VMware customers a consistent operating experience. As the foundation for Dell
Technologies Cloud, VxRail is the first hyperconverged system fully integrated with
VMware Cloud Foundation SDDC Manager delivering one, complete, automated platform.
VxRail is a distributed system consisting of common modular building blocks powered by
the best-in-class VxRail HCI System Software that allows customers to start small and
grow, scaling capacity and performance easily and non-disruptively from 2 to 64 nodes in a
cluster. Single-node scaling and storage capacity expansion provide a simple, predictable,
cost-effective “pay-as-you-grow” approach for future growth as needed.
VxRail HCI System Software ensures workloads are always up and running with intelligent
lifecycle management (LCM) that automates non-disruptive upgrades, patches, node
additions or retirement to ensure the VxRail infrastructure is in a continuously validated
state. Coupled with detailed health reporting using infrastructure machine learning from
SaaS multi-cluster management, it has never been easier to keep infrastructure smoothly
running.
Built on PowerEdge servers with a choice of Intel® Xeon® Scalable or AMD EPYC™
processors, VxRail is designed for today’s mission-critical workloads in mind, and also
delivers multiple compute, memory, storage, network and graphics options to cover a wide
variety of applications and workloads. VxRail continuously delivers new technologies such as Intel Optane persistent
memory, NVMe cache and capacity drives, 100 Gb/s networking, and NVIDIA Data Center GPUs. And with redundancy
built in at every opportunity – from the SATA M.2 RAID 1 “BOSS”, high-efficiency redundant power supplies, and multiple
networking ports – VxRail delivers 99.9999% high availability
VxRail dynamic nodes expand the way customers can benefit from VxRail HCI System Software. VxRail dynamic node
clusters are compute-only vSphere clusters that allow users to scale compute and storage independently based on
workload needs. By enabling external fiber channel storage to be used as primary storage, for VxRail and VCF on VxRail
solutions, customers can utilize dynamic nodes in a three-tier vSphere architecture to support mission critical data-centric
workloads, like financial services and healthcare applications. VxRail dynamic nodes can also extend to VMware vSAN
HCI Mesh environments where remote vSAN datastores can also be used as primary storage for dynamic node clusters.
VxRail comes stacked with mission-critical data services at no additional charge. Data protection technologies such as a
starter set of licenses for Dell EMC RecoverPoint for VMs is included, with the option of adding Data Protection Suite for
VMware and Data Domain Virtual Edition (DD VE) for larger environments that require more comprehensive data
protection.
Backed by Dell Technologies’ world-class support with a single point of contact for both hardware and software
components and includes Dell EMC Secure Remote Services (SRS) for call-home and proactive two-way remote
connection for remote monitoring, diagnosis, and repair to ensure maximum availability.

VxRail HCI Platforms

Built on the latest Dell PowerEdge Servers, VxRail's broad portfolio provides the flexibility to choose the best platform to
meet your performance, storage, graphics, IO, and cost requirements. No matter your workload, there’s a VxRail platform
to meet your needs.

E Series: Low profile, cost-effective, go “everywhere” platform. 1U platform with an all NVMe option and NVIDIA
Tesla T4 GPUs. Single or dual socket options powered by Intel Xeon or AMD EPYC™ processors. Ideal for remote,
branch office, or edge locations where space is at a premium. Use cases include high performance computing (HPC),
VDI, AI/ML, and in-memory databases.

P Series: Performance-intensive 2U platform configurable with 1,2 or 4 Intel Xeon Scalable processors, or a single
AMD EPYC processor with up to 64 cores. Ideal for business-critical workloads requiring high performance. Use
cases include in-memory intensive database applications such as SAP HANA, HPC and AI/ML.

V Series: Virtualization-extended 2U platform with GPU hardware for graphics-intensive desktops and graphics-
compute workloads. Ideal for specialized use cases such as high-end 2D/3D visualization leveraging NVIDIA Data
Center GPU cards. Use cases include VDI, AI/ML, large/complex CAD models, computer-aided engineering (CAE),
seismic exploration, complex DCC effects, 3D medical imaging, photorealistic rendering, high end virtual science, and

extreme conditions such as intense heat and cold, shock, vibration, dust, humidity, and EMI. Available in MIL-STD
and DNV-GL Maritime certified configurations. Ideal for space-constrained, remote locations with extreme conditions.
Use cases include mobile command centers, retail POS systems, video surveillance, and GPS mapping on the go.

S Series: Storage-dense 2U platform available as single or dual-socket with hybrid storage options to deliver a
maximum capacity of 96 TB per node. Ideal for dense storage workloads whose storage capacity scales faster than
CPU or memory. Use cases include demanding applications such as virtualized Microsoft SharePoint, Microsoft
Exchange, big data, analytics, and video surveillance.

G Series: Compute-dense 2U/4-node platform available as single or dual-socket with up to 224 cores. Ideal for
environments that require maximum processing power in small spaces. Use cases include processor-dense and
general-purpose virtualized workloads.
