Path-breaking innovations for making transformation real at Dell Technologies Forum in India

Authored by Srihari Palangala, Sr. Director & Head of Marketing, India, Dell EMC

Increasingly, technology is playing a significant role within modern organizations. Over the decades, organizations consolidated their IT departments mainly as an infrastructure services provider. However, with the steady emergence of new-age technologies, IT has transformed into an important business tenet, providing a host of solutions and services to enhance business agility and lower costs across business verticals. 

Over a period of time, organizations, regardless of their sizes, have started embracing mobility, cloud computing, IoT and new analytics solutions. Business success now hinges on the understanding of how and where these major technology trends will intersect. And this is precisely where organizations need strategic partners that can help navigate these shifts.

 At Dell Technologies, we accelerate innovations with a comprehensive portfolio of products and services. We are better positioned to serve our customers in a much more meaningful way. Thanks to our breadth of portfolio, transformative changes are now palpable across industries we serve. Our solutions are empowering AeroFarms to transform agriculture, Ford to redefine mobility, and the American Red Cross to save lives. Even in India, leveraging the fourth industrial revolution, we are creating IT infrastructure for citizen services like Aadhar in Digital India, passports, invoices of customers, and GST settlements. We are working as a technology partner for ESDS to shape the next-generation cloud and accelerate smart city projects. On the other hand, we are associated with CAMS to power the growth of the Indian mutual fund industry. Indeed, we boast the broadest portfolio cutting across the Edge to Core to Cloud in the IT industry that goes a long way in enabling our customers to realize their digital transformation plans and dreams. 

For organizations’ digital transformation drive, we have the power to make it possible and real. Let’s see how: 

• Modernizing applications: Modernizing applications is an important tenet in this transformation drive, as digital transformation demands transformation right from applications to processes to employee behavioral changes. Organizations, building traditional and cloud-native apps on IaaS and PaaS cloud infrastructure, are tied with IT operations that are agile around service delivery. Over the years, we have also noticed how organizations have been building hybrid infrastructures to take care of app modernization. And our solution portfolio is empowering organizations in this effort. 


• Strengthening the vendor landscape: With the wave of changes sweeping across the multitude of technologies and business models, we have seen an uptick in the number of vendors as well as IT complexity. Companies are now more involved in integrating and coordinating the development cycles of various solutions from several technology providers. However, IT should find a much simpler way to accelerate digital transformation. At Dell Technologies, we thrive on a strategic partner model, which is the best in the ecosystem, to take care of our customers’ IT requirements, end to end. 


• Securing the entire IT stack more effectively: We take pride in our various touch points that enable organizations to build security right from their hardware to infrastructure stack. We provide a one-stop solution for all security challenges and deliver security suite ranging from the laptops to the data center. At Dell Technologies, our vision promises simplicity and our all-under-one-roof solution suite enables us to ride high on this very vision. Even, this vision of simplicity resonates louder with our customers’ success stories. For instance, Citi is making use of our infrastructure and virtualization solutions with the aim to gain business agility while simplifying complexity. And for Jaguar and Nike, we are coming up with innovative ways that help design improved products and deliver enhanced workplace services. 

Every day, we, the 7 businesses under Dell Technologies, are going stronger on our innovation forte, driven by a single goal: enabling our customers to accelerate their journey of digital transformation.
