Building a Better Enterprise Cloud
![Dell Playbooks Technology Background](http://i.dell.com/is/image/DellContent/content/dam/ss2/product-images/page/landing-page/learning-center/build-better-enterprise-cloud-1200x800.png?fmt=jpg&wid=1200&hei=800)
Enterprise cloud infrastructure today is most often a mix of public, private and edge cloud infrastructure. As cloud technology has evolved, enterprise IT teams tend to choose cloud platforms that will best serve the workload needs of specific applications. As a result, the average business today uses five different cloud providers, each with their own tools for governance, service definition, security and resource virtualization. This ad hoc approach to managing a multicloud environment inevitably adds cost and complexity while limiting innovation.
Dell APEX provides a solution — a portfolio of multicloud and as-as-Service solutions that simplify operations, eliminate infrastructure silos and provides a consistent management experience across private clouds, public clouds and edge locations.
