Dell EMC VxRail
Continually being updated in 2018, Dell EMC's hyper-converged offering, VxRail, is one of the most popular in the market. Powered by VMware's vSAN and built on Dell EMC PowerEdge servers, the offering is the only full VMware integrated offering for software-defined data centers. It offers single-node, nondisruptive scaling and storage capacity with a pay-as-you-grow approach. The offering has been growing at a triple- digit clip this year. In 2018, Hopkinton, Mass.-based Dell EMC broadened its PowerEdge server choices for HCI and improved the VxRail release cycle to include the latest vSAN software within 30 days of general availability. The offering also now includes support for VMware Cloud Foundation and fully automated network configuration with Dell EMC's Networking SmartFabric Services. The enhancements enable VxRail to scale more rapidly and reduce network configuration and administration work through integration with VxRail Manager and VMware vSphere.
