Customers virtualizing their data centers and beginning their journey to the private cloud require a storage infrastructure that is both simple and efficient. EMC Corporation, the world leader in  information infrastructure solutions,  announced the availability of new capabilities for its market leading EMC CLARiiON® and EMC Celerra® midrange storage platforms to meet those requirements.

Simplicity begins with ease of management. Through new EMC Unisphere management software, EMC enables storage administrators to perform common tasks with 90% fewer clicks. Unisphere is integrated with VMware vCenter™ to also make life easier for VMware administrators.  Simplicity continues with integration. EMC unified storage integrates out-of-the-box with VMware vSphere and VMware vStorage APIs for Array Integration (VAAI).

EMC unified storage is not just simple, it’s also more efficient—and faster too. New Block Data Compression reduces storage capacity requirements by up to 50%, and new FAST Cache performance optimization technology enables applications to run twice as fast, and is fully automated—no administrator intervention required.

EMC Unisphere, a fresh approach to managing storage, and VMware vCenter Server integration and VAAI, provide a simple, integrated experience for managing both EMC CLARiiON and EMC Celerra storage systems in physical and virtual environments. These technologies are proven to:

• Perform “set it and forget it” tuning for application workloads like SQL OLTP in 80% less time
• Lower the number of “clicks” to manage common tasks by more than 90%
• Provision storage from a VMware vCenter Server in only 2 clicks
• Accelerate VMware server performance with 10-times less I/O for common tasks, enable 10-times more virtual machines per data store, and 10-times faster virtual machine deployment, clone, snapshot, and VMware Storage vMotion™ migrations
