Dell vStart - Platforms for today's applications and private cloud

Dell Active Infrastructureis a family of converged infrastructure systems that combineservers, storage, networking and infrastructure management into an integrated and optimized system that provides general purpose virtualized resource pools. Active Infrastructure helps IT rapidly respond to dynamic business demands, maximize data center efficiency, and strengthen IT service quality.  

The Active Infrastructure family includes fully pre-integrated systems that are pre-engineered, pre-assembled, and pre-tested to accelerate time-to-value of new virtual infrastructure, drive efficiency and lower risk, and deliver future-proof flexibility and scalability. 

Dell vStart 50

Dell vStart 50 is a pre-integrated system for simple, self-contained deployments. It is an ideal platform for remote locations or small businesses as well as small IT projects requiring data center-like infrastructure. It provides three key benefits:

Easy to administer and maintain

  • Automated and simplified management from a single console using included integrated management software from Dell
  • Capacity is easily added in a modular manner

Embedded enterprise expertise

  • Designed and built with enterprise-class best practices and dependability
  • Single vendor support ensures single point of accountability

Value focused

  • Provides a data center class architecture and components at an affordable price

Dell vStart 100 and 200

vStart 100 and 200 are pre-integrated systems for scalable rack server-based infrastructure. They are ideal platforms for supporting small to medium private clouds and applications such as SQL and collaboration, as well as disaster recovery for remote or branch offices.

Moderate compute scalability

  • Grow server capacity can be in a simple, discrete manner
  • Scale horizontally or vertically (adding servers or storage arrays)

Built-in resiliency

  • Pre-engineered to ensure high availability of applications and IT services
  • Leverage enterprise-class best practices and dependability
  • Includes single vendor support ensuring single point of accountability

Integrated management

  • Efficiently manage the physical infrastructure from your familiar virtual machine management console in a scalable manner
  • Have two paths to private clouds – Dell VIS Creator cloud automation software and Microsoft Private Cloud Fast Track Reference Architecture
