EMC has unveiled a variety of open source and cloud-related solutions. At EMC World 2016, held from May 2nd, EMC introduced the 'Modern Data Center' for business innovation, and then introduced new technologies for the architecture of the 'Modern Data Center'.

In his keynote address that day, EMC President David Goulden said, “The latest technologies and various smart devices that have emerged in the digital age have radically changed consumer experiences and corporate business environments in almost every industry.” He explained, “EMC’s new products and solutions that implement ‘agility,’ ‘efficiency,’ and ‘speed’ will modernize corporate data centers based on open source and the cloud.”



EMC then announced the open source-based 'Neutrino Nodes' of the hyper-converged infrastructure 'VxRack System 1000', 'Native Hybrid Cloud', a cloud development platform that combines IaaS and PaaS, 'DSSD D5', an all-flash array that has been upgraded by 2x, and the new project 'Poly' and 'RexRay 0.4' update of the open source developer community EMC {Code}.

The VxRack system is a 'hyper-converged' appliance that includes servers, networks, virtualization solutions, and management software, providing an environment where companies can easily and quickly build a cloud. This time, we've launched a new open-source-based Neutrino Node. The Neutrino Node's VxRack System 1000 is a turnkey, software-defined hyper-converged rack-scale system that provides infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) for cloud platforms.

A new addition to EMC's cloud product line, Native Hybrid Cloud (NHC) is a turnkey cloud application development platform. Designed to develop and deploy applications with cloud-based capabilities from the development stage, it empowers developers to develop cloud-based applications faster and more easily, laying the foundation for executives to launch new digital businesses and consumers to experience new user experiences.

EMC's all-flash "DSSD D5," unveiled earlier this year, is the industry's first to apply the NVMe protocol to enterprise storage, targeting performance and high-density data processing. It boasts a low latency of 100 μs (microseconds), high bandwidth of 100 GB/s, and up to 10 million IOPS (input/output operations per second), boasting performance 10 times that of the latest AFA (all-flash array) and up to 100 times that of HDD storage.
At EMC World 2016, the latest model featuring two DSSD D5 systems mounted in a single rack was introduced. The new model delivers double the IOPS, bandwidth, and capacity, and cuts response latency by one-third compared to the fastest converged solution for Oracle Database today, with a lower TCO (total cost of ownership).

EMC also unveiled Polly, a new project from EMC {code}, an open source developer community established to support the development of its third-generation platform and the open source community. Polly is an open source storage scheduler that enables storage resource distribution in environments such as Cloud Foundry, Docker, Kubernetes, and Mesos. The latest version of its storage integration management tool, REX-Ray, has also been released, REX-Ray 0.4. REX-Ray provides storage accessibility for container runtimes provided by Docker and Mesos, enabling advanced storage capabilities across general storage, virtualization, and the cloud. This update provides greater flexibility when centrally controlling and deploying containers. Poly can be integrated with a choice of client and server model architectures.
