#EMC Corp. was known for sandwiching technologies into converged infrastructure before merging with #Dell to form #DellTechnologies Inc. Will it go on creating those systems independently or bring in new ingredients and influences through the merger? The company’s #VxRack System with #FLEX, a converged infrastructure product, provides a hint. “It’s leveraging, really, the best of our software-defined, the best of the server technologies out there — and it’s really leveraging this trend of customers that have started to adopt #HCI [hyper-converged infrastructure], and now they’re ready to go all in,” said Jon Siegal, (pictured) vice president of product marketing at Dell EMC, Dell’s infrastructure group. VxRack FLEX’s makers happily dove into Dell’s wide server portfolio, basing the system on Dell’s 14th generation PowerEdge server, Siegal added. These new servers house processors from Intel’s Xeon Scalable family of processors; Dell’s direct line to pre-released Intel chips boosts the infrastructure stacks above market expectations, Siegal told Stu Miniman (@stu), host of theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s mobile live streaming studio, during an interview at theCUBE’s Boston, Massachusetts studio. (* Disclosure below.) On the other end of the VxRack FLEX stack, users can actually generate an on-premise cloud with easy application spin-up through Pivotal Cloud Foundry cloud computing software, Siegal explained.
