EDGE COMPUTING AND IoT Winner: Scale Computing SC//Fleet Manager

HYPERCONVERGED INFRASTRUCTURE Winner: Dell Technologies Dell VxRail VD-4000

Available as part of the Scale Computing Platform, SC//Fleet Manager consolidates real-time conditions for cluster fleets, including storage and compute resources, for edge computing

The Dell VxRail VD-4000 is a rugged platform with a smaller, purpose-built form factor that extends the opera- tional efficiencies of VxRail

to locations with unfavorable conditions such as low bandwidth and footprint restrictions. It can withstand some of the harshest environments and is designed for flexibility with options for multiple 1U and 2U node sleds. The VD-4000 has an optional embedded vSAN witness, eliminating the need for a data center or cloud-based witness and enabling the creation of a simplified, self-contained two-node vSAN cluster in a small footprint that requires 38 percent less power than a standard three-node cluster.

deployments and MSPs. It quickly identifies concerns using a single pane of glass, scaling from one to over 50,000 clusters. In February 2023, Scale Computing unveiled a zero-touch provision- ing (ZTP) feature, simplifying the task of centrally configuring clusters of edge computing infrastructure in SC//Fleet Manager prior to nodes arriving on-premises and decreasing installation time by 90 percent or more. Nodes and clusters no longer require manual initialization with ZTP and can be easily installed with non-IT resources.
