As a Microsoft cloud guy I see, feel and hear enormous demand for hybrid cloud storage, like FAST but with an Azure backend... is it possible to get VMAX3 to consume Azure on the back end?

Twinstrata baby!

@FidelmaRusso can you eleborate on your enthusiasm? so yes it works
Steve Chambers
@FidelmaRusso absolutely, but it's just a bunch of acquisitions and feature pointss
Steve Chambers
Does it work today? If not today, what will work when?
Barry Ader
not yet, but can soon
Steve Chambers
@furrier absolutely, John, as you know hybrid cloud means cross-management, ID, storage, network, app mobility and everything else on the long list. I wonder how VMAX3 fits into my GTM and customer needs
Steve Chambers
For the record, I would love to partner with my awesome EMC brethren on connecting clouds
Barry Ader
steve, contact me and I can help get that going.

I find STORSIMPLE an amazing product for customers

@vGazza hey buddy, iSCSI is awesome for a lot of people! :) FC is also a PITA for everyone else. Just because we always did it that way, doesn't make it right. Change is among us! :)

I am a big fan of iSCSI. But when consolidation matters most, big FC pipes make a difference.

it should be all about scale. The industry as a whole should get there.
