VBLOCK® SYSTEM 540 OVERVIEW
®
VCE continues to deliver differentiated value with leading technologies from Cisco, EMC and VMware. Vblock System 540 is the
industry’s first ‘All Flash’ converged infrastructure. It is engineered for scale-out performance at low latency, ideally suited for the most
demanding customer applications. Vblock 540 provides superior flexibility for high performance, mixed workloads, such as Oracle
®
®
OLTP, SAP, Microsoft applications and VDI. It also supports the VCE™ technology extensions for EMC Isilon storage and Cisco
®
UCS compute. Vblock 540 is comprised of the industry-leading XtremIO storage, for linear growth and scale-out performance. With
its ‘all flash’ architecture, it is easy to size, simple to manage, and optimized for unmatched operational excellence. One size does not
fit all, Table I and Table 2 provide an overview of the latest technologies customers can choose, such as the latest Cisco UCS M4
servers, ACI-ready networking, and EMC X-Brick configurations. With superior optimization, scalability, flexibility and operational
simplicity, this true converged architecture minimizes customer risk, reduces TCO, and accelerates innovation.

Base configurations and scaling
For each Vblock System 540, there is a base configuration that is a minimum set of compute and storage components, as well as
fixed network resources.
These components are integrated within one or more 28-inch 42U cabinets. Within the base configuration, the following hardware
aspects can be customized:
