The truth today…
Convergence
…just like mainframe, distributed systems and cloud, is an IT model DEFINED in the CUSTOMERS’ TERMS.
• Convergence is not a new concept• Convergence always involves tradeoffs• Convergence should always about
driving customer outcomes• There is no single approach to or recipe
for convergence that adequately delivers across all desired customer outcomes
Many of today’s approaches to convergence are heavily indexed on fabric-based convergence solutions that are expensive, complex & inflexible.

The Taxonomy
Private Cloud A model for enabling ubiquitous, convenient, on-demand access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or interaction.
Converged InfrastructureAn infrastructure model that brings together key IT elements – across compute, storage, networking & management – to improve efficiency and agility.

Dell Differentiation Statements
From Client toCloud
12Dell Confidential
1.Dell maximizes the your business model, not ours: Customer’s challenges shouldn’t be defined by a singular solution
3.Dell delivers industry-leading power efficiency: Technology that solves for IT complexity but creates downstream cost increases in power consumption and data center cooling isn’t a solution.
4.Dell delivers convergence on your terms: Convergence technologies that aren’t fitted to provide customer business outcomes are just…technologies.
Automate more to improve efficiency and governance

Management Convergence
End-to-End Convergence
• Leverage the blade chassis form factor to consolidate your HW infrastructure
• Implement a single tool to consolidate as well as automate day-to-day admin tasks
• Combine physical and virtual admin tasks to accelerate time to application deployment
• Benchmark operational and service delivery objectives against historic levels
• Adopt full convergence for all new infrastructure and service delivery needs
