Reasons to Migrate to Dell EMC Unity XT 680F All-Flash Unified Storage

The Dell EMC Unity XT 680F All-Flash Unified Storage device ensures powerful performance and low latency for a broader  range of mixed workloads. This platform is NVMe-ready and has the capability of high-speed access to business data. It can also enable mixed application workloads to run simultaneously, in addition to inline data reduction and data services with no performance overheads.

The raw capacity delivered is upto a max of 8.0PB, with up to 5:1 data reduction with inline deduplication and compression. Investments are also protected with Future-Proof Programs, subject to support agreement requirements.

The 5:1 data reduction capability ensures reduced storage footprints and lower TCO. Moreover, multi-cloud strategies can be enabled when it comes to disaster recovery as a cloud service, in addition to VMware Cloud Foundation integration, cloud storage and automatic data tiering to the cloud too.

The Dell EMC Unity XT 680F All-Flash unified storage comes with file and block support, point-in-time snapshots, remote and local data replication, built-in encryption and integrations with VMware, OpenStack and Microsoft.

What makes this storage device modern is the 2U NVMe-ready design future proofing the investment, making it scalable to 1500 drives. The dual-socket Intel CPUs, dual active controllers, more cores & memory drive of two times more performance with lower latency makes it more powerful. In terms of simplicity, the device installs in 15 minutes, with a configuration of 10 minutes and easy-to-use, intuitive, web-based HTML5 management. Moreover, the Dell EMC Unity XT 680F All-flash unified storage device boasts of higher system efficiency, with up to 5:1 DRR. This results in more effective usable capacity that lowers TCO. And as for flexibility, the device can be deployed as physical, software defined or converged infrastructure systems which all share a common OS.

The benefits of migrating to the Dell EMC Unity XT 680F All-Flash Unified Storage device is in terms of performance, since it boasts of 2x more performance across Reads, Writes and Mixed R/W workloads with up to 75% lower latency. Also, you can consolidate mixed workloads, such as file, block and VMware VVOLs, onto a single storage solution. Density is reduced with lowered opex, or floor space, with higher density up to 790TBe per RackU. Built for the multi-cloud, the device enables integration with VMWare Cloud Foundation, Cloud Tiering Appliance, CloudIQ, Cloud Storage Services for DRaaS and workload migration, in addition to Dell EMC Unity Cloud Edition.

Fortigate Next Generation Firewall delivers optimum digital protection

FortiGate Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFWs) are powerful performers with high security and strong visibility to protect against security threats with simplicity. They are equipped with multiple security processors to facilitate top-tier protection against breaches and attacks, in addition to enabling SSL-encrypted traffic performance.

Advanced security features are implemented in order to protect data and keep organizations safe from unwarranted breaches. Features such as deep-packet inspections, intrusion detection and prevention (IPS), application control, malware detection and enhanced network visibility through encrypted traffic inspection. NGFWs can be implemented on a private or public cloud environment, and can be located from on-premise network edges to internal boundaries as well.

NGFWs are designed to quickly and intelligently determine threats by means of supervision over IoT devices, uses as well as applications. Protection is provided over the following breaches to security:

1. Malicious sites & botnets

2. Ransomware & unknown attacks

3. Exploits & encrypted malware

NGFWs provide high performing services in intense environments, such as hyperscale data centers, in order to segment, inspect and secure locally hosted data and workloads at network speeds.

There is a requirement for integration of security tools and devices in order to function in even the most demanding network environments. Complex network infrastructures and threat landscapes call for Security Fabric integration, which combines simplistic, unified management, granular control, broad visibility and centralized compliance capabilities to protect attack surfaces with a straightforward and intuitive approach.

Fortinet NGFW is the only NGFW in the industry which integrates access proxy capabilities in order to establish zero trust network access, which allows organizations to host applications anywhere with consistent policy controls to facilitate hybrid workforce models with enhanced user experience.

With a networking environment in today’s world, things are more complex, complicated and dynamic than ever. Rather than risking borderless network structures, there is now a porous network integrity with endpoints & access points multiplying at rates never experienced before. This demands various capabilities, such as high intensity decryption, deep packet inspection post decryption, malicious URL detection, malware download, threat correlation and command and control activities detection. Therefore, there is a requirement for high-end NGFWs such as Fortinet’s NGFW to guarantee security span across the organization’s network.
