Full Story: Dell EMC (News - Alert) today announced that ScaleIO-the company's hyper-converged software-defined storage offering-has been awarded StorageReview's first-ever Editor's Choice award. Intended for the most leading-edge products, the Editor's Choice award is a rare honor, and one that ScaleIO earned over several months of intensive testing in the StorageReview lab. "We were blown away with the Dell EMC ScaleIO solution throughout the review process," said Brian Beeler, editor-in-chief of StorageReview. "Dell EMC ScaleIO is far and away the most impressive storage solution that we've not only seen this year, but probably ever. The performance, flexibility and reliability of ScaleIO is nothing short of astounding. Over the course of several months, it also made us rethink the way we acknowledge such superior performance. At the conclusion of this phase of the review, we decided to launch a StorageReview Editor's Choice award that will be judiciously granted for only the best-of-the-best products we see." "ScaleIO comes down to two words: flexibility and performance," said Josh Goldstein, VP of product management and marketing for ScaleIO. "The product is architected to be outstanding for block storage at web scale, combining the best of software-defined storage with hyper-convergence to create a lightning-fast solution with a multitude of configurations. We're delivering simplicity and never-before-seen results while enabling customers to minimize costs-the brass ring for enterprise IT organizations today." Notable StorageReview results for ScaleIO:
