The college is building research, teaching and administrative environments using Dell PowerEdge™ blade servers and providing employees with reliable Dell OptiPlex™ desktops and Dell Latitude™ laptops. A Dell/EMC storage area network (SAN) provides centralized storage that can flexibly grow to accommodate large-volume storage needs to come, and Dell ProSupport for IT keeps the infrastructure running 24/7 all year long.

The benefits of the solution are clear:

  • Get IT Faster: Ease and speed of Dell procurement saves hours a week.
  • Run IT Better: Remotely manage and secure PCs with Intel® vPro™ technology built into Dell desktops and laptops; high performance cluster will make research faster.
  • Grow IT Smarter: 60 percent greater density of Dell blade servers saves space, power and cooling; ability to add servers with Fibre Channel connectivity for performance and Internet SCSI (iSCSI) connectivity for cost-effective storage.
