Dell supports Service Providers – Our Mission
Enable service providers to scale operations, diversify their portfolio of offerings and
drive recurring revenue leveraging Dell’s end-to-end portfolio of solutions
Michael Dell said in an interview in April: "In
terms of building a public cloud to compete
with partners, we are not doing that
at all. Instead, Dell is more interested
in being an "arms dealer“, selling
servers to cloud providers as opposed
to building a competing Dell cloud.”
