Creating A ‘Developer Friendly, Highly-Automated, Intelligent And Efficient Cloud Architecture’

At the core, we’re combining the innovations of Dell EMC, VMware and Pivotal to create a developer friendly, highly-automated, intelligent and efficient cloud architecture. VMware brings the power of virtualizing all your infrastructure, including the network, and delivering a software-defined future from the edge to the core to multi-cloud. We’re partnering with all of the public clouds. We’re also fully embracing Kubernetes. This is important because application, data and workloads must move back and forward dynamically in an increasingly distributed network, including the explosion in the edge and the Internet of Things. Performance, security, latency, regulations, costs will demand this ability to move back and forth. Pivotal is fast becoming the leading platform for developing applications in this multi-cloud world. Boomi is leading with cloud data integration.

‘Embracing As-A-Service From The PC To The Data Center And Beyond’

We are embracing as-a-service from the PC to the data center and beyond, allowing you to redeploy your resources from administration to innovation. Dell Technologies’ is truly better together. Dell and [VMware] are deeply integrating our capabilities into a fabric that spans your entire environment. We are announcing the Dell Technologies Cloud and a platform for the future of AI-enabled technology. … I love the collaboration [between Dell and VMware]. It really spans the breadth of what Dell Technologies is capability of and the power of what we make possible and what all of our customers make possible. We’ve been talking a lot about multi-cloud and hearing about the choice and flexibility. One of the great aspects of our much larger industry now, is all the distributed innovation that occurs and how we can enable interoperability among the leading companies. This is even more important with the accelerated pace of innovation and change at the edge, across application and in the cloud.

‘Data Is Our Greatest Asset’

There is an explosion and tsunami of data that’s sweeping us into this data age. Data is our greatest asset and it’s also our most important resource. Data is unlike any other resource because it’s not only completely renewable, it’s also inexhaustible and we just keep making more and more of it faster and faster. This data is the basis of the digital universe that we’re all creating. Turning that data into action and progress and outcomes and success, is the heart of the digital transformation. We now have more powerful tools than ever before. The combination of awesome advancements in computing power, advanced computer science with artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning – and now we have highly automated infrastructures. Then we add 5G and a revolution is taking place. 5G is all about moving data faster, moving it exponentially faster. … The amount of data produced is enormous and instant response time is really required and local AI is required. That means a massive buildout of highly distribute AI-enabled infrastructure at the edge.
