EMC has been a market leader in bringing new innovative technology to the IT forefront. With the usage of RAID 6, EMC has again taken a very unique approach in designing this technology for its Symmetrix DMX products.
There has been a big chatter about the next generation of EMC machines. After the initial release of DMX-3’s in 2005 and then the DMX-4’s in 2007, next generation DMX is almost due now. Here is my wish list or expectations on the new DMX Platform.
