Data Center White Papers

Planning for the Scalable Enterprise

Overview Organizations have derived substantial benefits from the standardization of servers, storage, operating environments, and applications over the last several years. In particular, price/ performance advantages of Intel® architecture–based servers versus proprietary legacy systems1 have helped enable enterprises to satisfy a growing number of IT processing needs using cost-effective, industry-standard x86-based server architectures and related storage hardware. Based on a robust platform of modular computing components, Dell’s enterprise strategy focuses on standardizing core elements of the data center to deliver superior value.
