Dell EMC said its 14th generation Dell EMC PowerEdge servers, which are undergoing previews, offer up to 50 percent more VDI users per server.
In addition, ProSupport Plus with SupportAssist can reduce time to resolve hardware issues by up to 90 percent.
“With our leadership in server technology, the newest generation of PowerEdge servers are the bedrock of the modern data center,” said Ashley Gorakhpurwalla, president, Server Solutions Division at Dell EMC.
The Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG) 2017 IT Transformation Maturity Curve study, commissioned by Dell EMC, showed that 5 percent of survey respondents are prepared to meet the IT requirements of digitally transformed businesses with modern platforms.
Dell EMC said it will be embedding PowerEdge 14th generation servers in storage and data center appliances, hyper-converged appliances and racks, ready nodes, bundles and other Dell EMC solutions.
