Product Description
The ETERNUS DX8900 S3 disk storage system is purpose-built for biggest enterprises and ideal for the data management of business-critical core applications and the hyper-consolidation of large-scale data centers. ETERNUS DX8900 S3 provides non-disruptive capacity upgrades with up to 4608 disk drives, just by adding disks or complete drive enclosures. Performance of more than 4 million IOPS is provided by configurations based on 2 to 24 controller units and a maximum of 384 front-end ports for host connectivity. For simultaneous connection to different network types, FC, FCoE and iSCSI host interfaces can operate in mixed configurations.
Tiered storage optimization using a range of SAS, Nearline SAS and SSD drive options lowers the overall total cost of storage. The challenges of data exposure protection are addressed by self-encrypting drives (SED). Flexible and automated management across different quality of service profiles, using different drive types for each application scenario, ensures efficient assignment of system resources matched to the performance priorities of different applications.
Highest availability and seamless business continuity is guaranteed by redundant interconnections to the storage array and internal redundant components and completed by transparent failover which ensures uninterrupted operation in case of an outage.
