EMC CLARiiON CX4 Enterprise Flash Drives With Microsoft Exchange: Applied Technology

Incorporation of enterprise Flash drives into CLARiiON CX4 provides a new Tier 0 storage layer that is capable of delivering very high 10 performance at a very low latency, which can dramatically improve storage performance for Microsoft Exchange. Traditional magnetic disk drive technology no longer defines the performance boundaries for mission-critical storage environments. The costly approach of spreading workloads over dozens or hundreds of underutilized disk drives is no longer necessary. Depending on the Exchange environment, enterprise Flash drives can lead to increased performance and savings in power, cooling, and data center floor space requirements.
