    • Dell IT supercharges its database performance with PowerFlex

    • Over the past several years, Dell Digital, Dell’s IT organization, has been transforming its traditional data center into a flexible, agile multi-cloud environment built on Dell Technologies infrastructure. As it modernized applications and migrated them to the Dell Digital Cloud, it also needed a way to modernize the accompanying databases to achieve that same flexibility and agility. It needed a storage solution that was easy to use, highly performant and scalable, and that would enable data to move from one cloud platform to another without extensive engineering work or fine-tuning. It needed to deliver the software-defined storage (SDS) part of Dell’s software-defined data center strategy.

    • “PowerFlex really democratizes the storage performance so that everybody gets all of the performance whenever they need it, and I think that’s been really awesome for us.”

      – Jim Hall, Senior Manager, Compute and Storage Platforms, Dell Digital
