Linux Deployment on Dell Systems

Deployment Made Simple

Dell simplifies the Linux® deployment phase with prevalidated solutions, along with tools and information that further ease the transition. We provide you with as much or as little support you require, enabling you to control costs more easily while freeing you from long-term service engagements.

Once you’re up to speed, we don’t tell you how much help you need — you tell us how much help you want for your initial and future deployments.

To further simplify deployment, Dell only uses open-source drivers for the entire PowerEdge™ server portfolio. Through Dynamic Kernel Module Support (DKMS), Dell decouples driver releases from kernel releases. This further simplifies IT to provide you with business-ready solutions that just work.
