Virtustream,
the enterprise-class cloud company and a Dell Technologies business,
today announced that the Dell Digital team, which oversees the company’s
IT and commerce systems, has partnered with Virtustream to migrate and
manage Dell’s SAP-based ERP System, which includes SAP Business
Warehouse, on Virtustream
Enterprise Cloud.
Virtustream’s deep expertise in running SAP and mission critical
applications in the cloud paired with its unique ability to provide
enterprise-level security, performance and compliance made it a natural
fit to support Dell’s multi-cloud needs — including on-premises,
private, hybrid and public cloud environments — as well as their
rigorous demands for flexibility, scalability, performance and resource
utilization.
“Like our customers, we are driving a transformative and modern
multi-cloud strategy to support our dynamic business needs. This
required integrating and enhancing the performance of all systems and
applications,” said Scott Pittman, senior vice president, Dell Digital’s
Office of the CIO. “Virtustream provides the flexibility and scalability
needed to quickly extend our cloud, as well as the deep SAP experience
and knowledge we need to make timely decisions with our critical ERP
systems. This is another great project that has enhanced our own
business operations, and created a set of best practices that we can
continuously share with our customers, teams and partners including SAP.”
Mitigating Data Center Capacity Management Issues
Dell’s SAP-based supply chain management and business management
environment currently serves thousands of users and spans various core
applications and 13 business tools. The Dell Digital team is currently
migrating over one hundred servers to support its mission critical SAP
Business Warehouse across multiple on-premises, cloud, public and
private environments to Virtustream Enterprise Cloud. As a result, Dell
now has the flexibility to easily scale resources and storage and update
mission critical data sets in real-time to meet fluctuating critical
business demands throughout the year. Additionally, moving to
Virtustream Enterprise Cloud has already facilitated greater
productivity for Dell. Tasks take less time, which improves Dell’s
customer experience, decreases latency and increases overall
productivity.
“Dell has an extensive ERP system that is critical to its business and
tapping Virtustream for this project is a testament to our expertise in
handling these types of migrations,” said Deepak Patil, senior vice
president of product and technology, Virtustream. “Supporting and
enabling the world’s biggest enterprises to realize the true benefits of
the cloud is what Virtustream does best. Our customers, and now Dell,
have rich and sophisticated business systems and need cloud partners
that are able to recognize the manifold requirements of such a
structure, and can embrace that complexity and thrive in it.”
