Michael Dell: ‘Dell set to become enterprise solutions powerhouse’ | #DellWorld
by Marlene Den Bleyker | Oct 21, 2015
Michael Dell, founder and CEO of Dell, Inc. took the stage to kick off Dell World 2015. He began by saying he has come a long way from building PCs in his dorm to becoming an enterprise solutions powerhouse, and with the newly announced merger of Dell and EMC, Dell stated, “Dell and EMC are a dream combination that complement each other.”
Naming all the companies that make up the merger, Dell further defined the strength of the merger by saying, “We become a company with a leadership position in 22 Gartner Magic Quadrants, and we can deliver this unprecedented combination of capabilities to current and future customers, to the broadest set of customers, around the world.”
Committed to all
Dell said, “EMC is the best company in the industry at incubating new technology… and we plan to mirror the EMC approach of a strategically aligned family of businesses.”
“This is something Dell is really good at, the best innovation, highest quality and best value for customers,” he added.
Private investment in customer focus
Dell continued by stressing that all new initiatives would be under a private company structure without the 90-day shop clock. He is investing in the long-term and wants all companies aligned on customer-focused innovation.
He amused the audience by saying, “EMC – $67 billion. Being master of your own destiny … priceless,” emphasizing that he is “all in” and completely committed to the success of the new company, his talented team, the partners and, above all, the customers. He punctuated Dell’s strength in the marketplace by discussing the company’s patents and innovations and said that Dell is the only company that can deliver end-to-end IT solutions.
Segueing into Big Data and the Internet of Things (IoT), Dell said, “There is a consensus that time is slipping by in a world ripe for digital reinvention and digital fear. And full of digital data. Start-ups like Uber and Airbnb are changing industries and delivering modern consumer experiences in a digital way. What about your industry? It’s not if – but when.” He elaborated on how dependant the world is on technology by saying, “Technology doesn’t support the business model. Technology is the business model.”
By pointing out the proliferation of devices and smart things connecting to the Internet, he told customers that Dell will help them keep up through Pivotal Software, Inc.’s access to the cloud. Dell explained, “Disruption is here. IoT is already here. According to the IBC, 85 percent of devices are not connected yet and the exposure is just beginning.”
He then announced the launch of the Dell Edge Gateway 5000 series, a powerful analytic tool that connects to any sensor, device and computer.
New ownership means more Big Data
Under the category of Big Data, Dell covers the company’s partnership with Toad Solutions to deliver a powerful analytic engines that manages, analyzes and integrates data across platforms. The company plans on adding the Pivotal Big Data Suite to complement its offerings.
To demonstrate the strength of customer partnerships, Dell introduced a few use case clients to the audience that included, Mohit Saxena, cofounder and chief technology officer for InMobi, a performance-based mobile ad network that is using Dell technology to create an emotional graph of the user.
“Advertising needs to be about the emotional state,” Saxena said. He feels that to uncover different experiences the company will need to push software and hardware to next level, and he is a Dell shop using the company’s tools in countries across the globe.
Improving the customer experience
End-to-end security
The last theme Dell tackled was security. He noted that many companies have intellectual and proprietary information across networks along with mission-critical applications in the public cloud. He said that Dell’s end-to-end solutions help to manage risk and provide rapid recovery along with agentless technology.
“The local store on the corner is as safe with our technology as the big chain down the road,” Dell said.
Dell is enhancing its capabilities to protect the customer environment. He asserted that in managed security, Dell SecureWorks, Inc. stands alone and that the company made industry-leading investments in threat intelligence for the world’s largest companies.
Dell is a 32-year-old company that is still changing the way the world works. Dell feels each customer is a customer success story. He closed with, “The world must be future ready.”
