Engineering ran session on it at EMC World 08 as to why DMX customers should be using it right now. Virtual Provisioning solves a lot of that today.

Thing is, as we all know, HDDs are more and more reliable, so mid-range devices like 3Par are making hay while the sun shines. EMC know that because they claim 5-nines availability for Clariion. Why pay for DMX-level quality, when other technology out there does the job at half the price? Stephen, I guess so.

Moshe's Symmetrix was brilliant, but its time has passed - even he has moved on. Let's get rid of mirror positions and metas once and for all! But I'm betting that DMX-5 will be much more evolutionary than revolutionary...
