Within days of finalizing its $1.4 billion purchase of EqualLogic, Dell has delivered the first fruits of its promise to bring plug-and-play ease to data storage.
Dell launched its EqualLogic PS series of iSCSI SAN (storage area network) products in a splashy Nashua, N.H., event that was simultaneously Webcast on Feb. 4.
“The world will generate nearly a zettabyte of data by 2010, and our customers will be responsible for managing the bulk of it,” CEO Michael Dell said during the launch. “We are committed to simplifying IT and EqualLogic will help us realize that vision for our customers worldwide,” he said in a press release.
