Summary

FlexPod®
Sizing Methodology
18
Integrated system approach – physical or virtual Based on a balanced configuration,
workload requirements, and service-level agreements
Full stack: compute (servers), network, storage, and application software resources
Avoid over- or under-provisioning
Further reduce software licensing costs by leveraging Integrated host-based caching Storage-based encryption and compression (for infrequently
accessed data) rather than host-based “options”
FlexPod®
Integration Delivers Powerful Benefits
