Customers use the Dell VxBlock System for new applications or solutions. For example, I'm working on a new mixing solution for a whole country in Africa. When we talk about it, there are many locations, and we're looking for efficiency, utilization, and solutions that can expand the application database we're deploying. It's used a lot for server consolidation and to consolidate environments into new ones for easy management. It's also used in health environments where they need to create infrastructure for products or solutions they want to launch to the market quickly. The most valuable features for clients' operations include management of the virtualized environment, node management, configuration deployment, and system management with artificial intelligence. Hyperconverged solutions help organizations achieve multiple frames, mainly in management. Instead of having three, four, or five people managing different servers, you can now concentrate on one or two people to do all those things, maybe for machine learning, while having one person manage the infrastructure. The integrated components improve IT efficiency by allowing us to spin up an environment quickly for any solution or department without going through rigorous stress. We can do this within one or two digits of time. It also allows full utilization of resources. For example, if a department needs a certain amount of processing power, memory, and disk space, we can provision exactly what they require. When they need more, we can easily increase or decrease resources. This efficiency in provisioning reduces time to value - what might take eight months to achieve can be done in a day or two in this environment. Integration is very seamless if you know what you're doing. We always do our due diligence before deployment, using Dell applications to size the environment properly. I haven't encountered any difficulties integrating, even with storage systems for large organizations.
