Dell Unveils New Systems and Solutions to Accelerate the Adoption of Converged Infrastructure

The company debuts its next-generation converged systems for virtualized environments at VMWorld 2016.

At VMworld 2016 in Las Vegas, Dell unveiled the Dell Validated System for Virtualization, a next-generation converged infrastructure system, as well as new client virtualization solutions with enhanced performance for demanding power users.

A growing number of organizations are attracted to the benefits of converged systems, which combine compute, storage, and networking components for simply deployed and managed systems. Based on Dell’s service-defined infrastructure approach, the new Validated System for Virtualization is more flexible than any other converged system in the industry to date, according to the company, and incorporates a wide range of form-factors, technology choices, and deployment options. Dell also introduced a customizable hybrid cloud from VMware that is designed to work with the new converged infrastructure system. The cloud is managed through VMware vRealize Suite, and combined with Dell’s automated provisioning across physical and virtual environments, enables customers to easily plan and operate their own cloud.

Additionally, Dell announced that it is expanding its client virtualization solutions for VMware to include the Dell Solutions for VMware Virtual SAN Ready Nodes and the next generation of the Dell Precision Appliance for Wyse.

The new Dell Solutions for VMware Virtual SAN Ready Nodes is a hyperconverged solution for desktop and application virtualization. Deployment options range from a reference architecture to a fully configured VMware Virtual SAN appliance that’s been certified by VMware. Configuration options include discrete GPU graphics for uncompromising density and productivity as well as storage options including hybrid storage (HDD & SDD) or an all-flash SSD configuration. The solutions come with a choice of virtualization software broker options: VMware Horizon 7 or VMware Horizon Air Hybrid-Mode.

The next generation of the Dell Precision Appliance for Wyse offers a new configuration based on the Dell PowerEdge R730 server and the NVIDIA Tesla M60 GRID 2.0 graphics card for demanding power users. This solution offers customers higher user density with up to 32 users per appliance.

Dell is also adding support for VMware Blast Extreme remote display protocol, which will be incorporated on Dell Windows Embedded thin clients running VMware Horizon 7 with Horizon Client 4.0. This enables Horizon end users to access their virtual desktops via a Web browser or a full-featured VMware Horizon client.

“For more than a decade, Dell and VMware have closely collaborated to help customers achieve greater efficiencies from their datacenters and simplify IT operations,” says Jim Ganthier, vice president and general manager, Dell Engineered Systems, HPC and Cloud. “With today’s announcements, we continue to demonstrate how our innovations can enable customers of all sizes to accelerate their journey to hyperconvergence, convergence, and the cloud.”
