Dell EMC's making XtremIO multi-protocol

EMC’s XtremIO all-flash SAN is getting a file-system injection thanks to Dell Fluid File System (FluidFS).

Dell EMC previewed the NAS capabilities for XtremIO at Dell EMC World, saying they would be generally available by late 2017. FluidFS is a scale-out NAS technology that Dell acquired from Exanet in 2010 and used to add file capabilities to its Compellent and EqualLogic SAN arrays. But even before Dell acquired EMC for more than $60 billion, the development teams from XtremIO and FluidFS – both based in Israel – were collaborating on their integration.

Chris Ratcliffe, Dell EMC senior vice president of core technologies, jokingly referred to the joint development as a “black ops” operation. The integration will add NFS, SMB, Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) and NDMP to XtremIO’s current Fibre Chanel and iSCSI block storage support.
