Equinix, Inc., the digital infrastructure company, announced Wednesday it is offering Dell PowerStore storage solutions on its Equinix Metal platform. The new storage as a service offering aims to help enterprises manage multicloud workloads with enhanced performance, security and control.
As businesses increasingly seek flexible storage that accelerates data access, Dell PowerStore on Equinix Metal delivers scalable and cost-effective storage with options to temporarily burst capacity by 25% to meet demand. The service reduces total cost of ownership while optimizing resources and agility.
The single-tenant solution provides a comprehensive way for enterprises to view, manage and globally deploy storage, compute and networking from a single platform. It offers low-latency, secure access to public clouds by leveraging Equinix's extensive network of cloud interconnection data centers.
"Businesses need storage solutions that allow agility with their hybrid multicloud architectures," said Merrie Williamson, Equinix's chief customer officer. "Combining Dell PowerStore with our global platform gives them the low-latency, high-performance connectivity they require without sacrificing security or budget."
Key benefits include cloud-adjacent deployment close to public clouds, financial flexibility with storage as a service, global availability across 30-plus markets, simplified management, persistent data that persists across server restarts, sub-millisecond latency performance, and robust security and compliance.
The service expands options for Dell's channel partners who can offer it later this year under Dell's storage partnership program. It enables partners to provide predictable multicloud solutions tailored to customer needs.
