Full story
Salesforce signed a significant multi-year agreement with Dell
Technologies to create a centralized infrastructure to support
global growth across more than 60 data centers, 230 countries and
hundreds of thousands of customers.
Salesforce continues to see significant growth and looks to
extend its business from approximately $26.5
billion in FY22 to approximately $31
billion for FY23. To further substantiate its leadership,
Salesforce is working with Dell to provide a pivotal on-premises
platform that extends Salesforce's ability to control and manage
workloads and data where it makes most sense across its own data
centers and public cloud partners.
"For almost 20 years, Dell Technologies technology has aided our
growth and connection with customers and employees globally," said
Andy White, senior vice president,
Business Technology Services, Salesforce. "Dell's infrastructure
has been a core part of our cloud strategy, better positioning us
to help our customers accelerate their businesses and digital
transformations."
Companies see value in delivering highly personalized
engagements when introducing new solutions and providing support as
ways to strengthen relationships with their customers. They are
placing a greater reliance and more data on Salesforce's clouds to
offer their own marketing, sales, service and IT teams a holistic
view and deeper understanding of their customers and help drive
those interactions and recommendations.
"The most valuable insights in business come when we're able to
see correlations and connections across diverse sets of data that
power your enterprise," said Travis
Vigil, senior vice president of Infrastructure Solutions
Group, Dell Technologies. "Companies that can harness a multicloud
strategy will have a strategic advantage with the flexibility of
placing workloads and data in an environment based on cost,
complexity and security consideration. Working together, Dell and
Salesforce have created a consistent, flexible IT environment
spanning multicloud, infrastructure and PCs to support its
continued growth."
Salesforce is centralizing its cloud-based resources on a
platform built on Dell servers and includes more than 1,500 Dell
storage systems, delivering 25-50% performance improvement for
Salesforce's critical databases.
Dell laptops offer Salesforce workforce greater mobility in
hybrid work environment
Employees are a company's most important asset, and modern IT
empowers them with the right tools to collaborate. The new
agreement includes Dell Latitude laptops for Salesforce employees
with industry-leading security1 and
artificial intelligence software, Dell Optimizer. As people work
from multiple locations, the software provides capabilities such as
simultaneous multi-network connection for improved internet
connectivity, privacy features to protect sensitive data in public
places and background noise cancellation in loud environments.
Shipping in packaging made from 100% recycled or renewable
materials2, Dell Latitude PCs help Salesforce employees
increase productivity and offer top performance.
