MUMBAI: Dell and EMC have announced extension of their partnership through 2013. Through this extended partnership, Dell will introduce EMC Celerra NX4 storage system to its product portfolio. By broadening and extending our deep alliance Dell and EMC are able to deliver to customers fully integrated datacenter solutions as the preeminent storage partners to customers worldwide, said Michael Dell, chairman and CEO of Dell.
Users and Enterprises in the Connected Era have an insatiable appetite for storage. Today s economic realities place an emphasis on efficient solutions that consolidate and virtualize which through our long-standing partnership we are well positioned to deliver- he added.
In order to provide additional choice for customers, the EMC Celerra NX4, introduced by EMC in August this year, is expected to join the Dell storage portfolio in early 2009. The Celerra NX4 is a cost-effective unified storage solution that helps customers consolidate NAS, iSCSI and Fibre Channel technologies on one platform.
This relationship had its genesis during a challenging time in the economy and a desire by both companies to provide cost-effective solutions to customers who still had to manage ever increasing amounts of information, says Joe Tucci, EMC chairman, president and CEO.
Dell and EMC formed their alliance in October 2001 to help customers reduce complexity and more effectively store, manage and protect their information through networked storage.
