Complicating these considerations is the need to understand the types of workloads that will run on the cluster and the challenges of managing a system that is designed to accommodate multiple virtualized workloads.
Dell EMC’s customer-centered approach creates rapidly deployable and highly available CI systems that run on enterprise-class hardware. Ready Stack designs include all the hardware, software, resources, and best practices that are needed to run a scalable, highly available CI environment. With this approach, organizations can be operational in a shorter time than is typically possible with homegrown solutions.
