The following figure shows the proposed Dell solution insight architecture for deploying the OAS enterprise environment on a Dell PowerFlex infrastructure.
The PowerFlex infrastructure is suitable for deploying an enterprise-level OAS platform. It can accommodate all the server and storage (both NAS and SAN) requirements for a three-tier OAS enterprise deployment. The proposed PowerFlex setup for OAS enterprise deployment is a two-layer architecture where the compute layer is separate from the storage layer. This setup provides the advantage where the OAS compute and storage nodes can scale independently of each other, providing the flexibility to start small and add nodes as you grow, at each tier and at each PowerFlex layer. The following sections briefly describes the PowerFlex infrastructure layers as it maps to the generic enterprise topology tiers in an OAS infrastructure environment:
