The Symmetrix DMX800 networked storage system lowers the entry-cost barrier to high-end storage. The industry’s first modular high-end offering, the DMX800 delivers all the power, functionality, and non-stop availability of the Symmetrix DMX series—yet can be installed outside the data center. It’s an ideal solution for data center consolidation as well as dedicated, remote/distributed, or OEM applications.
The DMX800s pay-as-you-grow structure enables configuration flexibility, allowing you to add additional capacity and connectivity as needed. And the DMX800 can be installed outside the data center, and does not require raised-floor or dedicated-cooling considerations.
The DMX800 features Symmetrix Direct Matrix Architecture, a fundamentally new storage array architecture that delivers up to four times the bandwidth, five times the processing power, and ten times the cache throughput of the nearest competitor—with significant cost savings.
The Symmetrix DMX series unique, non-blocking interconnect surmounts bus or switch contention to deliver the highest performance in the industry. Coupled with completely new high-performance parity RAID, the DMX800 provides unprecedented price/performance.
The best just got better. The DMX800 includes more redundancy to cache and power supplies—and new features like end-to-end data integrity validation and Triple Module Redundancy with Majority Voting. And as always, EMC Symmetrix networked storage sets the availability standard with continuous monitoring, integrity checking, fault isolation, and "phone-home" remote diagnostics.
The DMX800 employs Enginuity, the most intelligent and thoroughly proven storage operating environment on the market. And it runs EMC’s complete suite of storage management software—the richest in the industry—for absolute functional compatibility with previous generations.
