EqualLogic PS Series Storage Array
Infrasys revolutionised storage in the UK & Ireland when we introduced the EqualLogic family of iSCSI SANs in 2005. Since then, the technology has fundamentally changed the way enterprises think about purchasing and managing storage. Built on a virtualized peer storage architecture, the EqualLogic PS Series simplifies the deployment and administration of consolidated storage environments. Its all-inclusive, intelligent feature set streamlines purchasing, delivers rapid SAN deployment, easy storage management, comprehensive data protection, enterprise-class performance and reliability, and seamless pay-as-you grow expansion. All EqualLogic PS Series arrays are completely interoperable, and can be mixed and matched to build tiered storage within a single SAN or across SAN groups.The PS Series range provides all the features of a SAN including Management Tools, Backup, Replication, Windows integration, etc
Intelligent Storage
The PS6000 Series is an intelligent storage array that provides rapid installation, simple management, and seamless expansion. All PS Series storage arrays include SAN configuration features and capabilities that sense network topology, automatically build RAID sets, and conduct system health checks to help ensure that all components are fully functional. A PS6000 can often be installed, configured and serving storage in less than 1 hour.
Modular Architecture
EqualLogic PS Series arrays are based on a virtualized modular storage architecture that enables IT managers to purchase only the storage that is needed when it is needed – to help prevent both under utilization and over-provisioning. Using patented data movement technology, all PS Series arrays can work together to automatically manage data, load balance across system resources and expand to meet growing needs.The EqualLogic PS Series is designed to meet and exceed the rugged requirements of the data center. The PS6000XV includes fault tolerance capabilities through fully redundant and hot swappable components – dual-controllers, standard dual fan trays, dual power supplies and disk drives with hot spares. Self tuning write-back caches are battery-backed and mirrored across controllers for ultimate protection without compromising performance.
Breakthrough in storage economics
Dell EqualLogic PS Series arrays represent a breakthrough in storage economics, from purchase and setup to operation and upgrades. Unlike traditional SANs, the EqualLogic PS Series includes software and applications expected from an enterprise-level SAN at no extra cost. The PS Series scales on-demand and online allowing storage growth without disrupting applications. As a result, EqualLogic arrays provide exceptional flexibility at a low total cost of ownership.
Whether consolidating a direct-attached storage (DAS) infrastructure, migrating data from and existing SAN, streamlining data protection processes or simply adding storage capacity, the Dell EqualLogic family of proven, high-performance, self-managing storage arrays is designed to meet the requirements of today’s critical datacenter environments.
