EMC Supports Red Hat

HOPKINTON, Mass. -- EMC Corporation (NYSE: EMC - News) announced today at the Red Hat Summit that it has strengthened support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux deployments by completing interoperability qualification of core EMC platforms including EMC Symmetrix®, EMC CLARiiON®, EMC Celerra®, and EMC Invista®.

EMC worked with Red Hat engineers to extensively test Red Hat Enterprise Linux interoperability with EMC's core storage platforms in the EMC E-Lab(TM), the leading industry testing facility of its kind. E-Lab exhaustively tests interoperability of EMC products with third party products to insure that they will interoperate "out of the box." Products which complete qualification are listed on EMC Interoperability Support Matrices to signify that they are fully-tested and assured compatibility with EMC products.
