Dell Technologies has announced the global availability of Dell NativeEdge, which is an edge operations software platform that simplifies how customers deploy, manage and secure their edge infrastructure and applications.
According to Dell, a recent analysis of Dell NativeEdge and standard edge deployments showed the platform can simplify and accelerate edge deployments, offering up to 22 times faster lifecycle management by automating routine and repetitive tasks, such as onboarding devices at scale and managing applications.
As edge use cases proliferate across industries, Dell’s partner community plays an important role in supporting customers in their edge journeys. Dell NativeEdge provides a new operations tool for all types of partners to help organisations reduce edge environment complexity.
Through the Dell Edge Partner Certification Program, ISVs and other channel partners work directly with Dell engineers in a dedicated lab environment to test and optimise their software before making it available to customers in the Dell NativeEdge application catalogue. For OEM customers and system integrators, Dell NativeEdge provides an opportunity to standardise how they design and deploy edge solutions for customers’ unique environments.
“Dell NativeEdge brings to life our expertise in creating solutions that simplify processes and fuel real-time decision-making at the edge,” said Gil Shneorson, senior vice president of edge solutions, Dell Technologies. “Our partners are an integral part of customers’ success, and together we can make the edge a strategic enabler for businesses across industries by making it simpler to deploy and manage infrastructure and applications.”
“As we see more enterprises moving workloads and applications to the edge, we also see increased edge complexity and sprawl,” said Eric Kaplan, chief technology officer at AHEAD. “Dell NativeEdge simplifies edge deployments and helps our clients securely manage and scale their distributed environments.”
