What is your primary use case for VxRail?

More than anything, we are using VxRail for network outages. By implementing VxRail, we were looking to reduce the physical footprint in our stores. We wanted to have a platform with which we could virtualize our data.

It is for virtualization. It is where all our servers run. It is for server storage. By implementing VxRail, we wanted hyperconvergence. We wanted to have the entire infrastructure unified in a single system. We were also looking for power, speed, and computation.

We run the applications on VxRail. We run all the applications that we have virtualized through VxRail. By implementing VxRail, we wanted hyperconvergence.

We are using VxRail for the whole infrastructure of our company. We are using VxRail E660F.

I use the solution pretty much for everything. We use it for VMs. Our customers are on VMs, and that's the main use case for us.

We use it for our database, all in Flash. So we have excellent performance, and it has resolved all our issues. No issues at all. And the support is very fast.

We have our internal servers allocated to the solution.

We use VxRail to manage capacity issues. It is very scalable and has solved a lot of our challenges. We are an international company and provide services and platforms to customers based in South America, Latin America, and North America.

We typically deploy this VxRail on-premise. However, we do have some cloud customers.

I'm the software system team leader.

We are using VxRail for our internal applications and databases.

We use VxRail for the promotion of all our infrastructure VM services.

Today, we completed the first stage with one customer. We finished our POC and sold six VxRail systems to the customer. The customer usually uses standard VxRail systems for data storage and servers. The customer wants to do some implementation to replace an old system. They are a manufacturing company that wants to improve their system with a more valuable storage area because they have a lot of data stored across various products. For example, they have 10 terabytes of information on one storage platform and another 2 terabytes on the other, etc. We faced competition from HPE SimpliVity and won. Yesterday, we got the good news from the customers, who were pleased with licensing for virtualization. The VxRail system provides some good benefits, and the customers are happy. We have two more projects lined up, but they are waiting for the new year, especially because they are arranging budgeting issues. We expect to see some new business in the first quarter.

Our whole company uses it. We have VxRail in our solution center, which designs software and hardware solutions for our customers' new opportunities. For example, recently, we were asked to develop a Kubernetes environment that the customer wanted to use and researched several different organizations, such as Red Hat's OpenShift. We wanted to test capabilities on Tanzu, and VxRail was a great home for that, so we brought all the software into the VxRail and showed the inner workings of the data flows for this new capability to the customer. In the end, they didn't necessarily need a VxRail, but that's the beauty of it. It's a vanilla platform to reside modernized software on.

We're integrators, and we have clients in various industries, including banking and energy. In general, VxRail is used to virtualize our customers' platforms. For example, some use it for Active Directory or their email solution for Microsoft Exchange. In addition to VxRail, we work with a storage array solution from Dell EMC with other servers. We use IBM Power System for our backup solution.

We use it for implementing VDI solutions.

VxRail can be used for application modernization.

We are implementers of this solution. We have deployed this product in many Middle East regions. We are also customers and an IT service. The last time I installed the solution, we were using version 4.7 and we are planning to upgrade to version 7. The solution is deployed on-prem. We installed the upgrade and migrated from a traditional solution to the virtual machine.

It is used for consolidation, modernization of infrastructure, and simplification. That's what most customers are looking for with this solution. I am using its latest release.

We are using the VxRail hyperconverged infrastructure to host some of our applications' virtual machines. We have customized this virtual machine and our applications serve different departments within the company.

I work for a telecom company, and we're using VxRail internally.

We mostly provide VxRail for companies that need to integrate different solutions. It's an embedded solution with storage, computing, and networking parts. Most customers use it because for integration. Our clients are mostly government agencies, educational companies, and enterprise labor.

We work with Dell's Italian partner, so we go where the market goes. When Dell merged with EMC, we did several courses, and I got a certification with VxRail. We usually work with companies that have projects. We are solution architects. We don't work with software, programs, databases, or custom software.

We have VxRail for Hyperconverged infrastructure for our Windows and Linux VMs. We have the vRealize Suite which helps us with lifecycle management and forecasting our environments.

I work in the tendering and bidding department. We study the fees and propose a solution based on the customer requirements. Over the last three years, most of our clients have been migrating to hyper-converged environments. I worked with most of the hyper-converged vendors regarding implementation, pricing, and reviewing the technical write-up.

We are system integrators and IT providers.

For small companies that want to have several nodes and a lot of computing with a small amount of storage for databases and SQLs, this solution works well. They can use it to replicate the data.

We mainly use the solution for our data center equipment. As with SimpliVity, the solution concerns itself with storage, networking and virtualization resources.

We're using three nodes appliance.

I don't know which version we are using. I use VxRail as a VDI solution in my environment.

We are using this solution for our business-critical application.

We implement VxRail E560F for our customers who are based in the Middle East. We are Dell partners and I'm a system engineer. The customer has scalability requirements and wants an easily adoptable solution for their data center which can be integrated into their HO IT Infrastructure and can be managed remotely, with the least amount of OpEx at the branch office.

I am working for a service provider, we provide IT services for our customer in Egypt. I have deployed this solution in approximately 10 companies. The solution provides many components into one box for data centers.

Our primary use case for VxRail right is deploying management systems. We are trying to consolidate some infrastructure.

We primarily use the solution for hyper-converged infrastructure. It's a four-node cluster that has internal storage and the solution has combined all four nodes via vSAN. vSAN is software, a software-defined storage software from which we can combine our four-node storage and other resources into one virtual storage tool. It's a software-defined model. We are using it for surrounding applications, not for core applications. For core applications, we are using Power Systems and IBM Cloud Storage.

The big portion of it is the VDIs, XenDesktop VDIs. I would say that our biggest deployment for VDI is approximately 15,000 users. Our team actually maintains the solution and deploys the updates, etc. We have two people that handle all maintenance-related issues. Mostly me but I have support from another person.

We use VxRail for VDI and for our production environment hosted on VMware. Within our organization, there are roughly 3,000 employees that use this solution.

We have some virtual machines for the active directory, some virtual machines for security like firewalls, and some for other security. We have some other solutions here that are on virtual machines, such as our web page. Its applications and some functions are on virtual machines, too. Some solutions are internal solutions and I think they are going to setup a SaaS solution here in our cluster. We have about three more clusters here and it's around 20 terabytes.

Our goal is to deploy a new CITRIX environment - migration from actual legacy model (hardware) to this new solution.

The general use case for VxRail was to deal with the obsolescence because the current infra was not adequate to deal with the licensing and the support as we were running on the older hardware and the ESX version, and being a manufacturing site we didn't have a good level of redundancy. We have two server rooms there. But if we lose one server room, we will not be able to run all our workload from the existing server room. So we deployed the V Service cluster during this deployment, wherein we have four modes in total in each room, and in the corporate data center. We also deployed a backup solution with the Data Domain application. Then even if we lose one server room we have all the backup data in the other server room. So now at least we have local redundancy. So the main use case is redundancy, obsolescence, better architecture, better throughput, and better back up time. Pfizer was not very responsive after we did the VxRail with the vCenter architecture with the upgraded styles. So we got feedback that Pfizer was responding well. Their help was good. Also the backup time is good. Pfizer has the 1.5 PV. It used to take five to six hours on the back up but now it takes almost half of the time. So we are saving back up time and throughput is good. After deploying we have been getting some good benefits. Even the local businesses are happy with this solution. So we are now deploying VxRail to more manufacturing sites.

We use the solution for high volumes of data transfer and accessing and processing that data.

We use VxRail to host our SAP ERP system.

Our company is global. We have a wide range of customers and clients in many countries. Our customers who use VxRail are typically big companies. Some of our customers are in the banking sector and use VxRail because they're concerned about using automated software for updates, upgrades, etc. VxRail is for a specific category, mostly for banking, oil, and gas — a few others sectors as well.

I use VxRail with VMware VCF. The requirement is to have a private cloud to provide services for users.

We use it for provisioning the applications for customers. There are no specific sets of installations for using the solutions. We meet the customers' needs through their requests.

We use it for our data center.

Normally customers are looking to move to data centers that are modern. We have a request for upgrades from old storage and media to something new. We consolidate old solutions and simplify the way the client manages their data center.

I'm a reseller. I've been selling VxRail as well as Nutanix for about one to two years. My customers use this solution as a virtualization server for general virtualization and also for VDI. I am currently selling versions 70 and 71.

We have four nodes. We're using it for our VMware infrastructure.

We primarily use the solution for general computing. We have everything on it and anything that's licensed is on it. We have our file servers, database servers, applications servers, web servers, etc., on it. Anything that fits on it basically.

We primarily use the solution as a platform for all of the virtual platforms using VMware. We change the traditional infrastructure and don't sell any servers anymore. We're now selling appliances and VxRail and change the traditional platform to the hyper-converged platform.

We primarily use the solution to run the loudmouth to host our virtual server's core courses.

Our primary use case is for VDI processes.

We use this solution mainly as a middleware application. We work in banking and use VxRail to run all of our mid-layer applications.

Most of our customers are Microsoft customers, so they are all seeking their own application servers on top of VMware. I'm a senior engineer infrastructure solutions and we are partners with VxRail.

In medium-sized installations, many of our customers require a reasonably-priced solution to replace legacy computer storage. Those are the customers who we are suggesting using the VxRail solution to. If the customer is building a data center using VMware, we are recommending VxRail because of the VMware compatibility. Medium set-ups can be used in a large enterprise but only when they need this solution as a smaller part of their environment. It works well for small setups or medium setups, or for new application setups.

We primarily deploy the solution to medium-sized businesses from different markets, from automotive to sales to medical, etc.

The solution is primarily used as a general data center and VDI.

We used it for hosting on the infrastructure.

The primary use for this solution is storage refresh, where you want to take advantage of the HCI functionality and/or bringing in another tier of storage.

The primary use case for this solution is that we usually propose this to consolidate the compute and storage into the same hardware, basically moving away from traditional infrastructure to a more elastic cloud-based infrastructure.

We use it to consolidate our data center footprint.

We use this solution for middle customers and headquarters. It's very scalable and works fine. I can roll out the system in thirty minutes and the customer can work with it.

I use VxRail in my DR site, so it houses my virtual infrastructure. I also use it for storage.

We use it in a infrastructure in a box-style setup for onsite deployments. We take certain assets to remote locations and record data for whatever sorties that they are doing.

We use it for storing all the information for our gaming and distribution software.

It is for small-to-medium businesses, who are looking to simplify IT effectively, reduce costs, and make it easier to maintain their whole lifecycle process.

It is part of the VMware stack for our data center and cloud.

The primary use case is that it is used as a tools pod where we can easily deploy our tools for any particular client on-premise. These tools include server management tools, storage management tools, network management tools (like SolarWinds), and other types of products (like Nagios), so we can put them in one place. We also work with Red Hat Satellite, WSUS, and all the particular tools that our teams need to manage to operate environments for clients.

A hyper-converged solution, for SME and entry-level business, easy and fast to deploy and can be used for many use cases.

We use it for our applications, which are all homeward applications and on a Windows-based server. VxRail has performed well so far.

Our primary use case is company growth, where storage an compute is growing fast. VDI is due to be deployed imminently

For use with our on-premise infrastructure.
