Unlike other EMC offerings that are storage-only or software-only, the VxRail Appliance is an all-in-one Hyper-Converged Infrastructure Appliance (HCIA) that incorporates virtualization, compute, storage, management, and protection in a single product. It provides a streamlined consumption model that eliminates the burden of preplanning and budgeting for growth. The VxRail Appliance provides simplified deployment from a single pane of glass, abstracting complexity with wizard-driven configuration, management, upgrades, and patches. It incorporates built-in data protection and security optimized for virtual environments and can provide unlimited hybrid-cloud storage via the EMC CloudArray Gateway. Lastly, the VxRail Appliance provides end-to-end, one-call support with a single point of accountability for all hardware and software.
