The Dell Validated Design for Manufacturing Edge with PTC offers appropriate levels of scale and performance that meet service levels of various edge deployments. Multiple environments with different service levels can co-exist. With VxRail configuration options and considerations for application, database, and VM levels, an accelerated value for edge deployment is realized by rapidly deploying the environment, scaling it as the demand changes, and by protecting the environment against logical and physical corruptions. This DVD can support a broad range of industrial IoT devices for data ingestion and retention that can be used for advanced levels of analytics to meet the requirements of smart manufacturing operations.
