5 Reasons – Why EMC for VMware
1. Simple, easy-to-use solutions that integrate
with and extend all VMware advanced
functions (e.g., DRS, Storage VMotion, SRM)
50%
2. Flexibility for iSCSI, FC, and NFS – every
protocol VMware needs = no risk, no
sacrifices, no protocol wars
40%
3. Proven scaling, proven replication, proven
availability, proven tier 1 app solutions
4. Unique capabilities in VMware environments:
– Backup built for VMware
– VDI solutions – from 1 image to 10,000 in minutes
– Change control and end-to-end virtual-to-physical
management
– Virtual appliances
– Joint VMware/Exchange/SQL/Oracle/SAP solutions

5. Net – more customers choose EMC for VMware
“For virtual servers, networked storage solutions are more heavily
weighted toward EMC storage. In previous years, storage attached to
virtual servers was highly captive relative to the server hardware purchase.”

Information Protection – Backup Built
for VMware
Virtualization enables new backup choices
 Impact to existing process
– Virtualization reduces or spare CPU/IO resources
– Virtualization consolidates backup workloads
Traditional
Full and incremental backup: move 150–200% of data/week
 Virtualized systems have a significant
amount of redundant data
– 90% of data in VM’s is duplicate (C:\)
 Need more efficient method of backing-up
in a virtualized environment
EMC delivers
 Integrated data-de-duplication and
backup-to-disk solution

Managing the VMware Enabled Data
Center
Need to Manage Physical and Virtual
Environments End-to-End
 Traditional view of resources change
– Virtual servers, networks
– One application per server becomes many to one
 Flexibility of virtualization enables
relationships to change frequently
– VMotion, DRS, Storage VMotion
EMC Delivers
 Management Tools Built for VMware
– Simple views of virtual-physical relationships for
IO (network and storage)
– Dependency-driven configuration and problem
management
– Simplified planning and management of virtual
infrastructure
– 100% integrated with VMware APIs

Virtual Desktop Environments
Simplifying, Accelerating, and Securing
the Desktop
Golden
Desktop Image
 VDI and VDM
– Centralized management and provisioning of
desktop environments
– Does 1000 10GB VMs mean 10 TB? And how to
copy them fast?
EMC Delivers
 From 1-1,000s of VMs in minutes

Snap LUNs
Disk
(Virtually Provisioned
– Instantly snap images in seconds, using no
additional capacity
– Makes patching obsolete – build a new image and
replicate
 User data redirection
– Store user data in highly available storage outside
their desktop
– Transparent to the user – looks like “My
Documents”
– Simpler backup, simpler image management
