Implementing Converged Infrastructure

We put the advanced in infrastructure management

Everything You Need to Get Infrastructure Management Up and Running

Dell infrastructure management is designed to free you from time-consuming, low-level tasks, so you can work on strategic projects that move your organization forward. With Dell™ Advanced Infrastructure Manager (AIM) solution, you can plan, deploy and manage your IT infrastructure with fewer keystrokes and tools. And, the significant cost recovery available through our approach can make IT administrators heroes in the eyes of the chief information officer (CIO).

There are two primary approaches to implement a Dell AIM solution in your organization:
  • Running Dell AIM software on servers you already own
  • Deploying a predesigned and preintegrated infrastructure management package with our fully qualified business-ready configurations

To make deploying infrastructure management easier, we offer reference architectures, business-ready configurations, solution guides and professional services: 

  • Reference architectures aid in planning by exploring the issues that an IT architect should consider before initiating a rollout.
  • Business-ready configurations are orderable, pre-engineered hardware/software stacks that can get you up and running with a minimum disruption.
  • Solution guides provide context to business-ready configurations, helping you understand the options and how the pieces fit together.
  • Dell ProConsult™ services offer you the expertise of infrastructure management professionals to help you plan and deploy a solution that meets your exact needs.
  • Dell Managed Services can operate your infrastructure management solution for you, freeing you to focus on projects that add value to your organization. 

But, you don't need special infrastructure to begin building a virtual-ready infrastructure and exploring the power of the Dell AIM software. AIM is available as a stand-alone product to work with your existing resources or with a range of Dell hardware products.
