• Building on the momentum of its “ Virtualisation Blockbuster” in May of this year, Dell today announced more new products, management tools and infrastructure consulting services designed to provide customers a smarter path to virtualisation. With this announcement, Dell expands its leadership in offering its channel partners a broad line-up of industry-standard virtualisation solutions that help customers simplify and lower the cost of managing their IT environments.

“The question isn’t will businesses virtualise, but when, and who can provide the platforms and services to make the rollout a success,” said Rick Becker, vice president of Software and Solutions, Dell Product Group. “While our competitors thrive on complexity to push proprietary hardware, management and services lock-ins, Dell’s virtualisation strategy is grounded in choice and defined by industry standards. By offering our customers the latest, industry-proven, technologies, services and reference architectures, we are helping simplify their IT operations without limiting their options for future growth.”

That innovation of the server platform as well as the tools to manage and report on the infastructure has to be a welcome addition to the market place in terms of competition and choice for the end user. Anything we can do to continue enhancing functionality, innovating the platform and enabling the end users through solutions such as virtualization and green computing has to be a good thing for the end user community and the green computing message.
