Macquarie Cloud Services, part of Macquarie Technology Group, has attained Titanium tier in the Dell Technologies Partner Program for 2025.
The Titanium tier is the highest level in Dell Technologies’ partner program.
As one of the few end-to-end Dell-powered cloud providers in Australia, Macquarie has built its private cloud and hybrid cloud solutions on Dell’s infrastructure.
Macquarie Cloud Services’ head of private cloud, Jonathan Staff, said the Titanium Partner tier is a reflection of the strength of the company’s collaboration with Dell Technologies, built on real innovation rather than pure volume of sales.
“We don’t just resell Dell infrastructure—we integrate it into tailored cloud solutions that drive meaningful business outcomes for our customers,” he said.
Macquarie Cloud Services has also made a multimillion-dollar investment in Dell PowerStore scalable all-flash array storage, enhancing storage performance, operational efficiency and sustainability.
By deploying Dell PowerStore, Macquarie Cloud Services enhanced its private cloud infrastructure with up to a 360 per cent increase in throughput performance; an 83 per cent reduction in latency, boosting application speed; a 68 per cent reduction in data centre space usage; and a 45 per cent lower power consumption, improving sustainability.
A key driver of the expansion has been Macquarie Flex, an Australian-first hybrid cloud solution that integrates Microsoft Azure Local (formerly Azure Stack HCI) and Dell APEX Cloud Platform for Microsoft Azure.
This solution aims to give businesses a cost-effective alternative to public cloud, enabling them to bring compute and storage closer to the edge while maintaining the scalability and security of Azure.
Staff said through Macquarie Flex, businesses can move workloads between public and private cloud environments, optimising for cost, performance and compliance.
“Many customers are rethinking their cloud strategy due to rising costs and security concerns and Macquarie Flex offers savings of up to 20 percent compared to public cloud alternatives, while also reducing operational risk," he said.
“Our investment in cutting-edge storage and cloud technology is about delivering measurable value to our customers,” said Staff. “This relationship continues to grow because it’s strategic, long-term and built on innovation—not just transactions.”
