• New Dell EqualLogic FS7500 brings the first scale-out NAS and unified storage capabilities to the Dell EqualLogic platform providing up to 10 times more file share scalability than legacy unified storage offerings
• New Dell EqualLogic software to deliver support for Data Center Bridging over iSCSI; enhanced, automated load balancing
• Dell Compellent demonstrates 16Gbps Fibre Channel infrastructure interoperability
• Dell PowerVault MD3600f/MD3620f adds Fibre Channel to the PowerVault lineup

At its Dell Storage Forum customer and partner event, Dell today announced new solutions built on its Fluid Data Architecture to optimize cost, performance and protection as storage scales with a growing organization. New solutions include its first unified Dell EqualLogic platform, updated Dell EqualLogic software capabilities, a Dell Compellent demonstration of 16Gbps Fibre Channel, and the introduction of Fibre Channel on its PowerVault product line.

These solutions represent a milestone in Dell’s vision for a Fluid Data Architecture designed to help customers efficiently and flexibly manage data. Dell is uniquely unencumbered by legacy storage technologies and rigid philosophies that do not support customer needs in the Virtual Era. Instead, Dell is focused on the development and acquisition of storage intellectual property that delivers productivity and efficiency gains for highly-virtualized data centers.

It’s great to see Dell’s innovation and continued investment in their Fluid Architecture to improve their offerings in the storage virtualization and consolidation space, it will be interesting to read up more about their innovations in their EqualLogic and PowerVault platforms, I’m off to read up more.
