Dell pushes beyond PC with Aussie data centres

Dell has added a raft of new managed cloud services and two data centres in Australia as it continues to grow its credentials as an end-to-end services provider.

The new data centres are Digital Realty facilties in Sydney and Melbourne, adding to Dell's existing data centres in Canberra and Brisbane.

In addition, Dell customers also now have access to four new cloud services - infrastructure-as-a-service, software-as-a-service, communications-as-a-service, disaster-recovery-as-a-service and managed-backup-as-a-service.

The services are being offered by cloud provider 6YS which has joined Dell's Cloud Partner Program. 

Dell's local team will consult, design, implement and maintain cloud infrastructure, while offering hosted Exchange, SharePoint, Lync, SQL, Dynamics and Project Server.

The recovery and backup service includes enterprise-grade SAN, server and desktop backup to the cloud, native application backup support and enterprise-grade file sharing.

On the communications side, customers will have access to more than 17 carriers including Telstra, Optus, AAPT, TPG and NBN, with routers monitored from Dell's network operations centre. The service supports SIP trunking, video conferencing, business telephony, mobile services and unified communications.

The new services come as Dell continues to push far beyond its PC heritage. The vendor's portfolio now extends to hosting, managed services, apps development, managed security services through SecureWorks as well as the new cloud services through 6YS and the Dell Cloud Partner Program.
