Dell Technologies Launches Dell PowerStore Update: A Revolution in Data Performance and Efficiency in Multicloud Environments

On Tuesday, July 16, 2024, Dell Technologies announced a series of major updates to their data storage platform, Dell PowerStore Prime. This update to the Dell PowerStore version is designed to deliver significant improvements in performance, efficiency, resilience, and data mobility across multicloud environments. 

So, what can customers expect from the Dell PowerStore update? Let’s dive in.. 

PowerStore Prime Update: A Revolution in Data Management and Business Performance

Dell has launched PowerStore Prime, the latest update to the PowerStore data storage platform. This update brings significant improvements in performance and efficiency, making it a more powerful and reliable solution for managing increasingly complex data workloads. 

The solution is also capable of handling larger data volumes and heavier workloads with better speed and resilience, resulting in an average performance increase of up to 30 percent for software and 66 percent for hardware. 

Additionally, PowerStore Prime not only enhances data management capabilities but also offers cloud mobility features, allowing for more flexible workload placement through seamless data migration between PowerStore and Dell APEX Block Storage for public cloud environments. 

PowerStore Prime Implementation: Cost-Effective and Low Maintenance 

Dell is not only focusing on technological advancements but also strengthening its partner ecosystem. PowerStore Prime provides greater investment protection for customers with programs designed to extend the lifespan of their storage infrastructure. This way, customers can continue to update their technology without making substantial expenditure on new hardware. 

For Dell partners, PowerStore Prime can open broader market opportunities. With more attractive incentives and programs, partners can quickly seize new business opportunities, reach more customers, and improve efficiency in delivering storage solutions.

Innovation with PowerStore Prime: Managing Workloads with Quad-Level Cell (QLC) Storage Technology

The Dell PowerStore Prime update also introduces QLC-based storage, which offers enterprise-class performance at a lower cost per terabyte compared to Triple-Level Cell (TLC) models. Dell provides customers with the flexibility to start with just 11 QLC drives and scale up to 5.9 petabytes per device. 

Furthermore, PowerStore’s intelligent load balancing can optimize workload placement across TLC and QLC clusters, which not only saves costs but also enhances operational efficiency. 

Dell PowerStore Software Update Includes Enhancements in Efficiency, Security, and Cloud Mobility

The Dell PowerStore software update includes several significant improvements. In terms of efficiency, this update boosts data reduction by up to 20 percent and power efficiency by up to 28 percent. This means companies can save resources while managing ever-growing data volumes. 

Data security is also enhanced with native synchronization replication options for block and file workloads, as well as native metro replication for Windows, Linux, and VMware environments. This update ensures that critical company data is protected and available across their IT ecosystem. 

Additionally, improved multicloud strategies can now be implemented by connecting PowerStore to Dell APEX Block Storage. This is the world’s most scalable block storage solution for the cloud, enabling easier workload mobility across various cloud environments. 

As Mike Lacenere, Vice President of Applications at Fulgent Genetics, stated, “Dell PowerStore has significantly accelerated our data processing, allowing our doctors to provide genetic insights and test results to patients more quickly.”
