VMware Most Recent Technology Innovations and Announcements with Dell: Stakes and Opportunities

 Since December 11, 2012, we have learnt from Sandra Bruce, VMware Global Alliances Director, Dell, that: VMware is very excited to be back at Dell World in 2012 as a Silver sponsor. She explains that:

‘’Dell and VMware’s decade long partnership has resulted in unique, integrated product and service solutions that help our customers to simplify their IT environments, all while effectively building a virtualized foundation for meeting the IT demands of today and tomorrow.’’

We also learnt that  since Dell launched those OEM offerings with VMware View 4 back in 2009, the both companies have worked together to build a comprehensive portfolio of joint solutions, targeting specific verticals as well as horizontal solutions. 

Here are some examples of these offerings :

Dell DVS Mobile Clinical Computing: based on VMware View, enables clinicians and doctors to securely access applications and data anywhere from nearly any device.

Dell Mobile Clinical Computing - VMware AlwaysOn Point of Care: provides data integrity as well as minimal disruption in computing service to the caregiver, including: constant monitoring, secure rapid access, single sign on and constant data replication across sites.

Dell Virtual Labs : aims to substantially simplify the deployment and management of computer lab services and gives students access to applications and data from any device, anywhere.

Dell DVS for Government with VMware View :helps government agencies support alternate devices, increasing data access from different locations, mobility and telecommuting without compromising security. This end to end solution aims to provide secure access to information anywhere in the world and IT can manage desktops operations that require a powerful IT backbone.

Dell DVS Enterprise – VMware Mobile Secure Desktop reference architecture: promotes flexible and BYOD working styles by delivering session persistence and mobility across any qualified device to access personal desktops.

And horizontal solutions including Dell’s DVS Enterprise stacks, based on thousands of hours of lab validation of VMware View on Dell infrastructure, are delivered as pre-racked infrastructure offerings, for more or less rapid deployment and expandability of virtual desktop infrastructure.
