7 Transformation Story: It s a Journey Taming Complexity Many Compute and Orchestration Platforms Many Interfaces CRUD Challenges: migrate from the above to an automated environment Not immediate, nor easy ViPR Controller can help! If you set the stage properly 7

8 Dell EMC VIPR SRM & VIPR Controller INSIGHT Automated Management and Insight to Optimize Resources ACTION 8

9 Trends in Your Environment Storage request for Application Storage admins are being pressured to deliver faster turnaround on storage requests Manual Planning GUI for execution Manual planning Scripted execution Intelligent Automation Rise of generalists vs. specialists has led to a breakdown of storage, network and host silos 9

10 ViPR Controller Simplifies & automates complex tasks Up to 89% reduction in manual steps Enables Self Service Storage Cuts time between "request" & "ready by up to 80% Simplifies Management Interfaces Plugs into northbound Cloud & Orchestration stacks Automates Workflows Increases the amount of storage managed while reducing risk 10

11 Automate Storage Service Delivery VIRTUAL STORAGE POOLS Diamond with Remote Protection Gold with Local Protection Platinum with Remote Protection Gold with Local & Remote Virtual Storage Arrays Controller Eliminate SAN Zoning Steps Multi-Step Process for host to see Without the Controller volume Select Storage Array Which Can Meet the SLO Choose Host Select Ports Based on Performance Create Port Groups Select Diamond Create Initiator Groups Create Storage Groups Identify Capacity Create Masking Views Create Zones on SAN switches Rescan the Host 11
