Dell EMC "Ready Bundle for Oracle"

The Dell EMC "Ready Bundle for Oracle" supports both production OLAP and OLTP along with test/dev environments in a single VMware virtualized environment. The high availability (HA) architecture and design built at every component level of the solution eliminates single point of failure and provides flexibility for planned maintenance downtime. 

Lower entry point with a purchase price up to 55% lower than the most advanced engineered solution for Oracle in the market, according to an internal cost analysis.

The Dell EMC Ready Bundle for Oracle has optimized Dell EMC VMAX All Flash storage, combined with VMware® virtualization, enabling consolidation onto fewer servers and storage arrays for lower capital expense (CapEx) and operational expense (OpEx).
