Jonathan Siegal, then with EMC's Core Technologies Group, discussed product announcements and strategy at EMC World 2014 and 2015. In 2014, he highlighted new capabilities for the VNX and V-Max platforms, including bringing data-at-rest encryption from V-Max to VNX2 as a non-disruptive software upgrade. He also described Project Liberty, a software-defined version of VNX that could be deployed on commodity hardware or in the cloud. In 2015, Siegal discussed the DD 9500 backup appliance, which he said delivered 1.6 times the performance and four times the scalability of competitors, and emphasized that the company's data protection strategy was centered on software, including DD 5.6 and ProtectPoint. He also referenced Project Falcon, a software-only version of Data Domain for remote offices and cloud providers. Siegal stated that the company's approach was to provide a best-of-breed portfolio integrated through automation, with Viper as a unified interface, to simplify infrastructure for customers managing hybrid cloud environments.
“When we introduced the V-Max 3 last fall, it was the first and still is the Enterprise data service platform. We've separated the Enterprise data services software from the underlying platform, enabling us to extend trusted data services like SRDF synchronous replication and ProtectPoint to other platforms and storage...”
“What we're giving customers, and one of the key differentiators of V-Max 3, is enabling them to manage their infrastructure as a service, ensuring performance, data protection, and availability levels for workloads running behind it.”
“Data protection everywhere means customers deploy and consume data and applications in various ways—traditional on-premise, virtualized infrastructure, hybrid cloud, and born-in-the-cloud environments. We must provide data protection solutions across this entire spectrum.”
“We announced the new DD 9500, which resets the bar for performance and scalability in purpose-built backup appliances. It delivers 1.6 times the performance and 4 times the scalability of our closest competitors.”
