7 years ago

Lenovo launched the ThinkAgile VX Series, powered by VMware vSAN, a preconfigured hyperconverged infrastructure solution engineered to provide businesses of all sizes with simplified management and greater efficiency. The VX series is the latest addition to Lenovo’s ThinkAgile portfolio of integrated appliances and systems designed to support customers as they modernize their IT infrastructures and unlock the efficiency, cost economics and agility of a software-defined data center.

“The ThinkAgile VX series is a new hyperconverged platform from Lenovo and VMware that provides public cloud-like simplicity, in a private or hybrid cloud environment. This solution is built on Lenovo’s ThinkSystem foundation of highly reliable, high performing servers, and is tightly integrated with VMware vSAN’s industry-leading hyperconverged capabilities. In keeping with Lenovo’s ranking as number one in customer satisfaction2, the ThinkAgile Advantage single point-of-support and white glove service experience is included with no extra cost” said Radhika Krishnan, VP and GM, Software Defined Infrastructure, Lenovo Data Center Group.

The VX series was designed for easy, rapid deployment so customers can focus on building their business rather than building and maintaining infrastructure. The VX Series is highly scalable so customers can start with as few as three nodes to grow storage and performance capacity without costly over provisioning or disrupting day-to-day operations.

“We deployed Lenovo’s VMware vSAN ReadyNodes and now our environment is easy to manage and less complex. We look forward to further enhancing our environment with integrated, turnkey hyperconverged appliances that will provide effortless and speedy deployment,” said Marcus Hill, CEO, Litewire.

“Our customers put high importance on simplicity and speed. That is why we are very excited about the announcement of the Lenovo ThinkAgile VX Series. This turnkey appliance provides our joint clients with a highly reliable infrastructure that saves time and improves performance while making their IT organization more agile” said Yanbing Li, SVP and GM, Storage and Availability, VMware.
