Evolve to scalable, flexible cloud
infrastructure with Dell
Name, title
“Cloud is not a destination or singular path, but a transformation that places IT
squarely at the center of the enterprise as both a leader and enabler of value-creation.”
Michael Dell,
Chairman & CEO, Dell Inc.
New Demands on IT
Market and technology
forces are accelerating
App modernization &
rationalization
Exponential data &
app growth
Aging, complex &
inefficient data centers
Mobile, social and
BYOD demands
Carry a high cost of
ownership; costly &
time consuming for IT
to upgrade & maintain.
40,000,000,000,000,0
00,000,000 Bytes (or
40 Zettabytes of
digitally stored data
by 2020. (IDC).
Average US data center
is 12 years old, many
not suitable for high
density servers. (IDC).
1/3+ in a CIO study
cited mobility as one of
their top-two priorities.
Why Cloud?
Business Goals
How Cloud Helps
Mitigate risk
Empower users and customers with
the right service levels for each
application and user
Reduce costs
Optimize application delivery,
streamline, simplify and automate IT
operations for optimal TCO
Grow revenues
Enable service-centric IT that
accelerates business responsiveness
now and into the future
• Improve security
• Balance capacity & costs
• Optimize IT spending
• Improve IT productivity
• Attract/retain new customers
• Be agile to customer needs
Decisions, decisions….
Many ways to transform…
…multiple choices with cloud…
• User-managed or vendor-managed
• Off-premises
• Enables a self-service pool of resources
for infrastructure & application needs
• Provides on-demand resources and
services while reducing CapEx
• Ideal for biz-critical and legacy
applications, introduce IaaS
• Ideal for test & dev, elastic web services,
fast time-to-value
• Allows for greater customer control of
apps and services
• Allows for greater agility and flexibility
of apps and services
