Eaton ensures continuity and protects Dell EMC VxRail from power disturbances
The ability of hyper-converged infrastructures to create single clusters of compute, storage, networking and virtualisation resources and other technologies as tightly integrated IT infrastructure is increasingly popular in data centres across the world. Eaton provides intelligent, scalable solutions designed to organise, protect and manage hyper-converged infrastructures to ensure their business continuity.
VxRail hyper-converged appliance, powered with Eaton technology
VxRail, a fully integrated, pre-configured and pre-tested hyperconverged infrastructure system jointly developed by Dell EMC and VMware, aligns computer, memory and storage resources to match the requirements of end-user workloads. Through integration with Eaton’s Intelligent Power Manager (IPM) software, users of VxRail can manage their IT application, including power devices, from a single dashboard, as well as enhance the integrity of valuable data and business continuity by enabling automated and graceful shutdown of VxRail clusters experiencing unplanned power events.
Why integrate Eaton solutions with VxRail systems?
- Preserve data integrity and business continuity by enabling automated and graceful shutdown of VxRail clusters experiencing unplanned, extended power events.
- Protect valuable data from cybersecurity breaches with the first UL 2900-2-2 certified UPS communication card.
- Reduce need for on-site IT staff with simple setup and remote management of power infrastructure using familiar VMware tools.
- Safeguard VxRail system from power anomalies and environmental threats.
While competitors can shut down a node or two, only Eaton can sequentially shut down the entire VxRail cluster:
