Welcome to the final chapter of our Open Telecom Transformation Program blog series. This series has explored how Dell Technologies empowers Communication Service Providers (CSPs) to transform their networks and operations with confidence. From adopting agile cloud architectures to fostering innovation, our mission is to help you achieve sustainable success. Now, as we turn to the critical final piece of this puzzle, we will focus on Managed Services.
Transformation doesn’t end with the deployment of new technology. Instead, the true value lies in driving adoption, maintaining, and optimizing the environment to meet long-term business requirements. This is where Dell Technologies excels. Indeed, we offer unmatched expertise and capabilities with Dell Managed Services (DMS).
Why Managed Services Are Essential
Moving to a cloud-based telecom network unlocks great opportunities. However, it also brings challenges like skill shortages, adopting a DevSecOps operational model, implementing AiOps for observability, and managing complex systems at scale. Consequently, these hurdles can slow progress and increase risk.
At Dell Technologies, we fully understand these challenges. Success requires more than advanced technology. Rather, it demands strategy, collaboration, and dependable support. That’s why our managed services offer proactive solutions to keep your network performing at its best.
What Makes Dell’s Managed Services Stand Out?
Dell Managed Services (DMS) helps customers maximize their transformation investments. With decades of expertise, we manage hybrid cloud environments, containers, storage, backup and cyber-recovery across diverse platforms, whether they are on-premises or co-located.
Furthermore, our leading IT management standards and multicloud solutions bridge skill gaps. We provide proactive management, automation tools, and expertise to help customers operationalize quickly. With this approach, we unlock the full benefits of cloud transformation. Here’s how DMS can support you:
1. Dell Lifecycle Management Services to manage complex environments at scale
Managing updates, security and compatibility can strain resources. Yet, these tasks are critical to staying ahead of evolving demands. To simplify the management of diverse setups and requirements, our experts use proprietary tools, technologies, and capabilities. They assist with the following:
-
- Proactive Updates – Our updates ensure systems remain secure and available so your network can run when it should.
- Seamless Integration minimizes risks of crashes or failures with rigorously tested updates.
- Reliability and Security keep your system ready to handle both today’s demands and tomorrow’s challenges.
By managing the lifecycle proactively, we ensure your systems operate smoothly. This, in turn, reduces disruptions before they occur.
2. Dell Residency Services to solve skill shortages
Our residency services provide hands-on expertise. For example, we embed subject-matter experts directly within your teams. These experts share insights, offer guidance, and help you achieve your operational goals. Residency periods are also flexible, allowing you to tailor them for short-term or long-term needs.
-
- On-Site Mentorship helps your teams adapt quickly to new technologies. With expert guidance every step of the way, your teams will gain valuable skills.
- Solution expertise allows residents to assist with deployment and optimization. This ensures timelines stay on track while letting your teams focus on daily operations.
By combining mentorship and operational support, we accelerate transformation. At the same time, we build the skills you need for long-term success.
3. Custom Managed Services to solve your unique needs
No two CSPs are alike. That’s why Dell designs its services to meet your specific goals. Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, our custom managed services align with your unique operational requirements.
-
- Tailored Scope gives you the flexibility to outsource select functions or create comprehensive, end-to-end management programs.
- Scalability allows solutions to grow alongside your business. We can manage specific tasks or oversee full operations as needed.
- Collaborative Design ensures services are built around your goals. With this approach, we deliver real-world, impactful results.
By focusing intently on your needs, we ensure your network operations align perfectly with your business objectives.
