The Most Affordable Hybrid Storage

The newest member of the EMC® VNXe® Series is the most affordable unified hybrid array out there - and it's also the most capable. The new VNXe3200™ has the power of EMC's VNX2 unified storage systems - compressed into an efficient, easy-to-use package designed for resource-constrained IT departments in any size company.

The VNXe3200 adds powerful features which were only available on higher end VNX models including FAST™ VP auto-tiering, FAST Cache SSD caching, Fibre Channel host connectivity, and MCx™ multicore optimization. The new multicore enhancements alongside a beefed up quad core 2.2 GHz processor delivers up to 3X the performance compared to the previous generation VNXe3150 - supporting over 200 VM's, 2500 Exchange users, or 600 Virtual Desktops in a very small space.

The hybrid VNXe3200™ storage system retains the affordability, simplicity, and efficiency that VNXe systems are known for - including Unisphere™ awardwinning simplicity, unified connectivity, and EMC's next generation support services - to deliver an incredible value in entry-level storage.

Hybrid For Mixed Workloads

Industry analysts report that the most economical way to deploy high speed flash drive technology is in hybrid or multitier storage arrays combining lowcost, high-capacity hard disk drives (HDDs) with a small amount of highperformance solid-state drives (SSDs) to deliver low storage cost per I/O. Hybrid arrays have the intelligence to detect hot spots and balance workloads from SSD to HDD as required.

Common use cases include:

  • Applications -Microsoft Exchange, SQL, SharePoint, Oracle
  • Private Cloud - VMware® ESX® or Microsoft Hyper-V virtual machines
  • Virtual Desktops and Home Directories

Simple. Efficient. Protected.

The VNXe3200 can be setup for NAS or SAN in minutes and is designed to integrate directly into your application and virtualization environments. It stores and protects your data while lowering your total costs in terms of $/IOPS and $/GB. The VNXe3200 was also designed for 99.999% availability utilizing dual controllers, flexible RAID options, and non-disruptive upgrades.

Simple

The VNXe3200 was designed with ease of use in mind.

  • You can setup DAS or NAS or SAN in less than 15 minutes with the new VNXe Configuration Wizard. With the free add-on EMC Storage Integrator for Windows you can provision storage for Microsoft applications in minutes not hours. Unisphere Central can be used for more advanced multisite deployments of mixed VNXe and VNX's.
  • Now, you can easily deploy an automated private cloud with deep VMware and Microsoft integration. The VNX family has the best virtualization integration with over 96 integration points into both VMware and Hyper-V. For three years in a row, an independent research firm Wikibon named EMC VNX and VNXe the #1 storage for VMware integration.
  • The improved, integrated service ecosystem includes EMC Secure Remote Support (ESRS) for remote monitoring and repair capabilities as well as dial home and remote chat.

Efficient

The VNXe3200 also has leading edge efficiency features which lower the overall cost of the system.

  • You can boost performance while lowering costs using our hybrid array powered by EMC's FAST Suite. FAST will use SSD first and then put colder data on high capacity HDDs. FAST is automated for set it and forget it tuning.
  • Reduce capacity requirements by up to 50% with thin provisioning and file dedupe. In the past, you had to make a trade-off between performance and efficiency features. Combined with the FAST suite, you can deploy thinly provisioning LUN's and filesystems without performance degradation.
  • This system does a lot in a densely packed space. With a flash optimized architecture, MCx, 48GB RAM, and support for SSD's and HDD's, you can store up to 200 VM's in 4U.

Protected

The system delivers the right combination of built-in and add-on EMC software capabilities to support your recovery SLAs.

  • Unified Snapshots and Remote Protection provide array-based data protection and disaster recovery.
  • With AppSyncTM protect all of your critical applications in a single click, dial in the correct service level and enable application owners to drive protection.
  • RecoverPoint provides local and remote Continuous Data Protection for recovery to any point in time. You can replicate with RecoverPoint to both VNXe and VNX systems with automatic sync options and choice for RPO's.
  • You can use VSPEX® proven architectures (available from partners) to purchase a holistic (server, network, storage) architecture that integrates the new VNXe3200 & Data Domain2200 backup appliance.

VNXe3200: Most Affordable Unified All Flash Array

The VNXe3200 is EMC's most affordable unified, hybrid storage array and has earned the recognition for its leading simplicity and efficiency in entry-level storage. However, recognizing that sustained and predictable performance can also be a requirement in this segment for certain workloads, the VNXe3200 Unified All Flash Array is positioned to address this performance need. Offered in 2TB, 3TB, 4TB and 8TB slim 2U form factor configurations, the all flash VNXe3200 maintains its full enterprise feature-set, management simplicity, and Connect Proactive Support capability while providing a real price/performance alternative in the entry all-flash segment.

Powerful

Using its MCx multicore optimization features, the VNXe3200 Unified All Flash Array is poised to support hundreds of VMs on a single system while delivering predictable performance of up to 84K IOPS (4TB) that can turbo-charge a variety of virtualized application, database, and transactional NAS workloads.

Affordable

The VNXe3200 is available in 2TB, 3TB, 4TB and 8TB configurations. Each is aggressively priced that help customers reduce $/IOPS and $/GB making it the most affordable Unified All Flash Array in the entry all-flash segment. The starting price for the VNXe3200 Unified All Flash Array is competitive compared to similar offerings in the entry all-flash market.

Unified

VNXe3200 Unified All Flash Array integrates SAN and NAS into one system - delivering both file and block storage in a single array while supporting multiple storage protocols (CIFS, NFS, iSCSI, FC). In the case of the VNXe3200 Unified All Flash Array, you always have the flexibility to add more flash to the system or convert it to a hybrid flash array to deliver the performance of Flash with the cost of Disk.
