Frequently Asked Questions
What are the key use cases for Dell Private Cloud?
Dell Private Cloud is ideal for organizations looking to modernize their infrastructure, implement multicloud strategies, or improve the scalability of their IT operations. Common use cases include hosting mission-critical applications, enabling rapid provisioning for DevOps teams, centralizing management across teams, and building an AI-ready, sovereign foundation that keeps modern workloads and sensitive data under your control.
How does Dell Private Cloud, delivered on Dell hardware, improve our IT architecture?
Dell Private Cloud evolves your IT infrastructure by enabling fast and reliable software delivery built on a disaggregated architecture. With flexible licensing for virtualisation software from leading vendors, and automated integration with Dell hardware such as Dell PowerEdge and Dell PowerStore, Dell Private Cloud allows you to seamlessly transition between cloud ecosystems, supported by a catalog of validated blueprints and the ability to bring-your-own cloud software licenses.
How is Dell Private Cloud different from a co-engineered solution?
Co-engineered solutions are purpose-built for specific software stacks. Dell Private Cloud, in contrast, offers an open and flexible platform that supports multiple ecosystems with the ability to reconfigure and reuse software and hardware through its disaggregated infrastructure.
What is disaggregated infrastructure?
Disaggregated infrastructure transforms IT operations by offering dynamic, flexible scaling of networking, compute, and storage as shared resource pools. Key benefits include open and flexible compute capabilities, improved resource utilisation with fewer servers and reduced licensing costs, simpler patching and lifecycle management, and superior efficiency across the organisation. Dell’s disaggregated solutions leverage best-in-class technologies like PowerEdge servers and PowerStore storage, delivering unprecedented operational value.
What are validated blueprints?
A validated blueprint is a build scheme that specifies how Dell uses software and automation to deploy a specific third-party software on your infrastructure. It is the fundamental tool that defines the components with associated parameters for assembly, taking your hardware from ready-to-deploy to a fully realised private cloud. What makes a blueprint validated is that, once a blueprint has been structured and created for a specific software deployment, it is then rigorously tested by Dell’s experts across different Dell hardware stacks to ensure a seamless, reliable, and successful process for our customers. As part of Dell Private Cloud, users are able to access Dell's curated catalog of validated blueprints for fast, easy, proven private cloud deployments.
What infrastructure services are available to support Dell Private Cloud solutions?
Dell offers a comprehensive suite of services to ensure the success of your Private Cloud implementation. These include the ProDeploy Infrastructure Suite, ProSupport Infrastructure Suite, and Specialty Support and Deployment Services.
What infrastructure does Dell Private Cloud run on?
Dell Private Cloud is a software subscription that works with your new or existing infrastructure: Dell PowerEdge compute, Dell storage, and your choice of networking — reuse what you already own or add new systems as you grow, with no specialized hardware required. The platform automates deployment, scaling, and full-stack lifecycle management to keep the whole stack in a continuously validated state — delivering an appliance-like experience on flexible, disaggregated infrastructure.
