Reid Hoffman, LinkedIn to the World

LinkedIn and Application Management

LinkedIn’s Challenge: Technology that keeps up with a fast-growing company.

A fast-growing company like LinkedIn needs its technology to scale very quickly to meet the needs of a diverse
workforce.

LinkedIn’s Solution: Dell Hardware and Custom Factory Integration

Through Dell’s Custom Factory Integration service, Dell configures all of LinkedIn’s new client systems to meet the needs of their various end-users. Specifications are agreed to, from thereon, everything is streamlined.

Dell Precision workstations, based on the Intel® Xeon® Processor 5600 Series, give LinkedIn’s talented software developers and engineers the edge they need to get more done and maximize their contributions. With Intel’s largest processor memory and highest memory bandwidth, it maximizes both computing capacity and visualization capabilities. And the 2010 Intel® Core™ processors, available in Dell OptiPlex™ desktops and Latitude™ laptops, automatically adjust to unique workloads and reduce power consumption accordingly.

 Application Management

"What our Ops guys liked about Dell was it was very easy to get to the configuration that was right for the problems that a systems administrator, a financial analyst, or a project manager was trying to solve, " says Reid. "That was our reason for selecting Dell, and we’ve been happy customers."
