Managing IT is tough. Your job is often chaotic and complex,
and your staff is pulled in many different directions. Keeping your
organization running while trying to embrace IT-transformation
initiatives can make your job daunting.
But IT transformation is critical to success, which is why
81 percent of business leaders agree their organizations
will not be competitive unless they embrace it.

Dell EMC PowerEdge: The Bedrock of the
Modern Data Center
Dell EMC PowerEdge servers form a scalable,
security-enabled hardware foundation that can handle
your demanding workloads.
Dell Technologies’ robust portfolio includes Dell EMC PowerEdge
servers and HCI, such as Dell EMC vSAN ReadyNodes,
Dell EMC VxRail™ and Dell EMC Integrated System for
Microsoft Azure Stack Hub. These solutions are pre-validated
building blocks that seamlessly combine compute, storage and
industry-leading software.
Built-in security features also help protect, detect and recover from cyber-attacks. Security begins with a silicon-based
root of trust that ensures only authentic rmware runs on the server. This root of trust validates each module, such as
Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) and the BIOS rmware, as it boots. This validation creates a chain of
trust that you can also extend to public cloud hosts, which helps protect workloads in a hybrid cloud environment.
Take the Guesswork out of Software Licensing and Support
Dell Technologies offers OEM licensing for VMware virtualization software, Microsoft Windows Server 2019 and
Microsoft SQL Server 2019. You can ne-tune your Dell EMC PowerEdge solutions with the right amount of licenses,
without volume licensing agreements. As your infrastructure grows, you purchase the licenses you require. It’s that simple.
You can also get more out of your technology from day one with comprehensive, 24x7 support from thousands of
VMware- and Microsoft-certied professionals. One number is all you need for full support of your hardware and
OEM-licensed VMware and Microsoft software.
