Because there will always be people behind our machines, Bull and EMC have created the StoreWay EMC Solution Center, that unites a team to design and manage your storage projects - from A to Z - in a facility dedicated to customers, willing to experience and evaluate the latest storage technologies and solutions.

Based in the high-technology center of Grenoble in the French Alps, the Bull StoreWay EMC Solution Center demonstrates the very latest storage solutions based on EMC technology in a live and interactive environment. Welcoming customers from France and throughout Europe, the Center helps organisations address the major storage issues that they are facing today including managing storage growth, business continuity and data archiving.
