EMC "cloud-in-box" - elastic cloud storage - (Nile) - Emc claims 23-28% lower costs rel to AWS. @furrier @dfloyer let's unpack this on #theCUBE
Crowd Captain
Elastic Cloud Storage... The Arms Dealer play for "industrialized cloud" to End-Users and Cloud provisioners. says @gwoollacott
John Furrier
EMC claims that ECS (new ViPR offering) 4 yr TCO is 23%+ cheaper than #aws and #gce says @stu
Crowd Captain
ViPR controller has Cinder driver support - good to see; are there any EMC contributors to #openstack ? says @stu
Tim Crawford
Interested to see if it enables acceleration of #cloud migrations.
Dave Vellante
Burton announcing ViPR 2.0 - commodity drive support geo repl block - adds to object and HDFS - and more 3rd party support thru vplex and cinder (openstack)
Dave Vellante
So again the big ? Is this the future of SDS or is it a way to simplify EMC silos?
John Furrier
the Elastic Storage is not a service but instead it's an appliance
Tim Crawford
@furrier Aren't appliances effectively dead at this point?
Crowd Captain
ViPR 2.0 is next announcement
Dave Vellante
Burton announcing Rack Scale Flash storage as a memory extension. Acquiring DSSD
John Furrier
Breaking News: EMC buys DSSD Andy Bechtolscheim company BOOM - Flash Everywhere
Dave Vellante
Andy B company - very interesting. Have filed object patents - real time object based distributed storage for transactions - new age stuff
CrowdFather
New category of storage with Flash. EMC taking the south side big time
Crowd Captain
new storage called Rack Scale Flash by acquiring DSSD says @RayLucchesi
John Furrier
Cloud Scale is about Storage Software and Commodity Hardware saying 10 cents per Gigabyte on storage 1 Exabyte is $100m in savings
Dave Vellante
Web scale guys will spend engineering time to save money - most IT shops will spend money to save time. Totally diff mindsets
John Furrier
DSSD doesn't have product yet - the super-low latency space is a scramble and EMC needs to be there. says @stu
Dave Vellante
@jburton getting ready to initiate an announcement carpet bombing

Twitter / baldydubois: #EMCWORLD EMC Cloud Storage ...
#EMCWORLD EMC Cloud Storage (ECS) announced at the show, an on prem alternative to Amazon?
Dave Vellante
$1m data services guarantee and a program to take out competitive all-flash arrays.
Crowd Captain
Burton covering why inline data intelligence is important. Storage systems are now predicated on such intelligence says @clivel_98
John Furrier
here comes the carpet bomb DSSD is now bought by EMC
John Furrier
Jeremy Burton taking the stage for the big news - he drives a Q7 nice
CrowdFather
@jburton I will take care of that guy who tried to take you out in your Audi
John Furrier
Platform 3 is about seemless experiences - Real Time Actionable Insights - we agree with #emc 2000% very relevant vision
John Furrier
EMC offering $1 million dollar guarantee for all flash arrays
Henrik Wagner
Awesome that you guys are here this week! Looking forward to convos w @Crowdfather #EMCWorld #Crowdchat @sylvie75015
Crowd Captain
I like the #Area52 and #Area53 displays love the cool tech that EMC is showcasing
Crowd Captain
Looking forward to your #crowdchat flash mob at 4:30 pst Tuesday right here on Crowdchat.net/emcworld

here is the crowdchat schedule - open to public to schedule group chats here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1dIAZAu5gNsawL9JI63dJrShkvrZ42lUxXB0SDvBwwqc/edit#gid=0

Hey Tucci the British Invasion is taking over #EMC what about the Italians
Dave Vellante
EMC's euro performance surprised to the upside last qtr - 8% growth yr on yr
Henrik Wagner
now if the Brits could only perform at #Brazil2014
Dave Vellante
surprisingly BRIC (the supposed growth markets) we're actually down.
John Furrier
One thing @Jburton said on #theCUBE in 2010 his first year was he would think globally and he has. Comms team is global big time now
Dave Vellante
Other questions for EMC - can the new stuff (IDC "platform 3") grow fast enough to offset the declines of "platform 2?" Can EMC's "cloud-in-a-box" (aka Nile) and partner strategy effectively compete w amazon AWS (at scale)
CrowdFather
If EMC can cannibalize their own business while bringing in new profits before their competitors do it - that's good move
Dave Vellante
The big questions for EMC: 1/ Is the "federation" model the secret for EMC to cross the chasm? 2/ Can EMC cut the innovators off at the pass? 3/ is vipr the future of SW-def storage or just a way to stitch the silos together?
Crowd Captain
If EMC can take #flash to another level then they can make smaller higher performance systems. Federation is about efficiencies and synergies while nurturing their ecosystem
John Furrier
EMC will have to diversify and increase their TAM especially across the federation as EMC get commoditized in the enterprise; Pivotal VMware set to increase in TAM and margin
John Furrier
Tucci, Goulden, Maritz, Gelsinger - a great mgt team in the Federation
CrowdFather
EMC has first Federation booth maybe that will stop the resistance
