What was trending in Q1 of 2013 and what can we expect in Q2?

I made a few observations over the past weeks and I’m seeing a few topics that got my attention:

  1. EMC now has a community appreciation program called EMC Elect and I’m one of the 10 original founders! I blogged about that here: http://www.50mu.net/2013/01/15/emc-elect-2013/.
  2. EMC announced new SAS drives for the formerly FC-only based VMAX
  3. VCE announced new vBlock models. I wrote a little blog post here: http://www.50mu.net/2013/02/22/vce-announces-new-vblock-models/
  4. a new Cloud Solution from EMC: VMAX CE. I wrote a blog about that too here: http://www.50mu.net/2013/02/26/vmax-cloud-edition-4all/.
  5. EMC VFCache is transformed into ExtremSF and faster and larger products will be made available. Also the XtremSW software suite is introduced that eventually is able to use third party flash card to be used as cache or DAS storage
  6. EMC introduces its XtremIO, all flash array with true inline deduplication

We present you: the first batch of EMC Elect members

November 15, 2012 marked the beginning or a new era. On that day EMC announced the start of their community recognition program called EMC Elect. From that day on until December 15 all of you were able to nominate peers that have proven to be real experts in their fields, but most importantly tell the world about that. These community experts are people who are using all sorts of open channels to tell the community about their findings about EMC related products, whether this is a VMAX 40k or a VNXe or software like Networker or Documentum (to name just a few) and anything else they wrote about or told the general public about.
