    Dell ECS Object Storage Platform

    Enterprise-Grade, Cloud-Scale Object Storage

    Dell ECS is an enterprise-grade, cloud-scale object storage platform engineered to deliver modern, scalable, and highly resilient storage for unstructured data. Designed for public cloud scale with the control of private infrastructure, ECS supports a broad set of protocols for object and file workloads on a single unified platform.

    With global access, a single namespace, and seamless content distribution, ECS empowers organizations to manage vast, geographically distributed environments with ease. Its layered, software-defined architecture ensures limitless scalability, high availability, and complete abstraction across all layers—eliminating single points of failure.

    Cloud-Like Simplicity with Private Infrastructure Control

    ECS enables organizations to deliver cloud-scale services with on-premises reliability and governance. It integrates seamlessly into modern hybrid cloud environments, enabling anywhere access to data with global consistency and simplified management.

    Whether deployed as software-defined storage or as a turnkey appliance combining ECS software with Dell PowerEdge servers, ECS offers predictable performance, cloud-like elasticity, and enterprise-class durability. Its flexible architecture ensures smooth scaling from terabytes to exabytes while maintaining operational efficiency.
