Dell APEX
Experience Multicloud by Design
Organizations love the agility and efficient service delivery of the cloud operating model. However, managing multiple incompatible public clouds in a siloed multicloud environment can be complex, with dispersed workloads and data making it difficult to mitigate risk, maximize performance, and control costs—all while ensuring overall efficiency and productivity.
To overcome the complexities and constraints of multicloud by default, Dell APEX delivers multicloud by design, empowering you to optimize the placement of data and workloads for maximum value within your organization.
Get Consistent Operations from Ground to Cloud
Extend Cloud Software StacksThe Dell APEX approach leverages a ground-to-cloud strategy that brings familiar best-of-breed software from on-premises Dell infrastructure to the public clouds. As a result, your IT teams can leverage the same enterprise-class functionality, performance, and resiliency they already trust. In addition, Dell APEX backup services, delivered via software as a service (SaaS), provides all-in-one secure protection, disaster recovery, and long-term data retention while eliminating infrastructure management.
Bring Cloud Experiences On-premises
The Dell APEX as a service portfolio streamlines the lifecycle of traditional infrastructure—from deployment to operations to decommissioning—while simplifying or offloading the management of the technology stack.
Align Costs with Usage
Dell APEX pay-per-use subscriptions help you align costs with actual use by pre-deploying buffer capacity to help reduce the cost of over provisioning and the risk of under provisioning. You can elastically scale capacity up and down within the buffer, paying only for the capacity you use at one consistent rate with no overage fees.
