Dell India announced the launch and delivery of next-generation iSCSI storage area network (SAN) arrays - the Dell EqualLogic PS5000 Series. It shares a revolutionary architecture to serve as the backbone of virtual datacenters.  This dynamic architecture can deliver advanced storage functionality, simultaneous scaling of performance with capacity and enterprise-class management for one upfront price - eliminating up sells and hidden licensing fees. Using the iSCSI interconnect, the Dell EqualLogic architecture creates a flexible, virtualized environment for dynamic volume creation and movement, thin provisioning, scalability, remote replication, and easy interoperability within any IP-based datacenter.

Dell EqualLogic PS5000 Series Attributes

• Virtualization in the Array - built-in virtualization architecture provides extensive flexibility, intelligent automation of routine processes and on-the-fly performance optimization that responds to application demands.

• Modular Scalability - each modular storage array is a complete SAN; as arrays are added to a group, storage performance grows linearly, network bandwidth expands and the group continues to behave as one virtual SAN.

• Advanced Storage Management - built-in enterprise-class storage management capabilities, including remote replication and thin provisioning.

• Configurable for Capacity/Performance - configure each array for the desired ratio of capacity to performance; create multiple tiers of SAS and SATA-based storage in a single SAN, and optimize each tier for the applications it serves.

• iSCSI Interconnectivity - utilizes the IP protocol to enable fully virtualized storage arrays and storage networks that work seamlessly in the IP datacenter.
