Secure-24 Customer Example
ViPR Automation Eliminated Multi-Step, Multi-Hour Processes
“ViPR automates all of the
mundane storage
management tasks we do
every day, freeing up staff.”
- Eric Mowry, Director of Automation
and Internal Tools , Secure-24
Business Benefit Secure-24 Results
Faster time to Value Reduced provisioning time from hours or days to on-demand
Better Return on IT
Spend/Efficiencies:
Provided a single point of management for its broad and diverse infrastructure
No Vendor Lock-in Leveraged single API to manage storage environment; primary storage to backup
IT Staff that Innovates: Allowed six storage managers to focus on strategic initiatives

A Simple Way to Manage Mixed Storage Environments
Centralizes Storage Management
• ViPR Monitoring and Reporting
– Capacity and chargeback reporting for ViPR
virtual resources
– Discovers physical arrays and available
capacity to support provisioning capacity to
ViPR
• Storage Resource Management Suite
– Enables management of physical infrastructure
under ViPR control
– Tracks use of capacity on physical arrays to
support purchasing processes
– Enables SLA management for traditional and
ViPR software-defined storage

ViPR CAN HELP

Cloud-enable existing storage and data
ViPR Data Services
 Storage services at cloud scale
– Built in software
– Layered over both traditional and new
storage devices
 Object and HDFS data services
– Many more to follow, at regular intervals
 Unified platform
– Data services can be used as different
semantic views on the same data e.g.
Object on File, HDFS on Object

ViPR Object Data Service
 Similar to Object model popularized by
Amazon S3
– API support: Amazon S3, OpenStack Swift,
EMC Atmos
 Extensions
– Byte-range updates, atomic append, rich
ACLs
 Object on File
– Access a set of objects as files, directly on
the underlying file storage device, with native
file system performance

Deploy REST-based applications on public and/or private clouds
Application Portability and Flexibility
VIRTUAL ARRAY
VNX Isilon
3rd Party
• Deployment flexibility,
no lock-in
• Full API compatibility
– Amazon S3, Openstack
Swift, EMC Atmos
• Reduce development
costs
• Extend the value of
applications and existing
data

EMC ViPR HDFS Data Service
• Transform storage into a Big Data repository
• Extend Big Data queries to new data sources
• Reduce data transfer time and bandwidth costs
• Reduce dedicated analytics cluster growth

Expand The Reach Of Big Data Queries
 HDFS becoming the de facto file system
for distributed applications
 ViPR provides a great platform for HDFS
– Addresses limitations of off-the-shelf HDFS
– Brings HDFS to existing storage hardware
– Enables HDFS/Object/File scenarios
– Flexible software model allows for future
colocation (compute & storage)

Leverage & Extend Existing Investments

• ViPR client installed on data nodes
communicates with ViPR HDFS
• ViPR HDFS provides HDFS
