Dell PowerMax 8000
Dell PowerMax 8000 offers next-generation NVMe and Storage Class Memory (SCM) drives with dual-port Intel® Optane™ persistent storage, end-to-end efficient encryption, real-time machine learning, and six-nines (99.9999%) availability. Perfect for high-demand workloads requiring enterprise-class data services, non-disruptive migration, and scalable consolidation.
Unmatched Enterprise Storage Performance
The Dell PowerMax 8000 delivers extreme performance and consolidation for high-value, high-demand workloads. Supporting 32Gb/s FC-NVMe and Storage Class Memory (SCM) with dual-port Intel® Optane™ drives, PowerMax 8000 reduces system latencies by up to 50%. Real-time machine learning optimizes storage performance through pattern recognition and automated data placement with no overhead, ensuring microsecond-level latency for mission-critical environments.
Advanced Data Security & Availability
PowerMax 8000 arrays support end-to-end encryption from host to storage media with minimal impact on data reduction (compression and inline deduplication). Each PowerMax Brick provides six nines (99.9999%) availability, making it ideal for the most demanding, mission-critical workloads. Global inline deduplication and compression provide up to 5:1 data reduction with virtually zero performance impact.
PowerMax 8000 fully supports Open Systems, Mainframe, IBM i, and File workloads on the same array, delivering flexibility and scalability for mixed environments.
High Efficiency & DevOps Integration
PowerMax 8000 delivers extreme efficiency with global inline deduplication, compression, space-efficient snapshots, and thin provisioning. Its architecture supports seamless automation through APIs, SDKs, and VMware plugins, along with Container Storage Interface (CSI) support for containerized workloads. Preconfigured out of the factory, PowerMax arrays reduce deployment time and enable rapid, non-disruptive migration from legacy VMAX or third-party arrays.
