Dell also introduced Dell Administrator for Office 365 and Dell Foglight for Virtualization 8.3 at Dell World in Austin alongside the Dell Hybrid Cloud System for Microsoft . The highlight is certainly the hybrid cloud solution, which is based on the Dell and Microsoft jointly developed Microsoft Cloud Platform System Standard.
The Austin-introduced edition is designed to make it easier for companies to enter hybrid cloud environments. For example, through the flexible payment model Cloud Flex Pay, which was also presented at Dell World. This offer gives IT decision makers the opportunity to experience Hybrid Cloud System for Microsoft in a six-month probationary period. After that, the company can decide whether to extend the evaluation phase, return the solution or finalize it.
Private and public
The hybrid cloud solution combines Dell hardware and Microsoft software such as Azure Services for backup , recovery and operational analysis. This combination is designed to provide organizations with maximum flexibility and a seamless transition between private and public clouds , including through the Windows Azure Pack, Azure, and other cloud services. This can prevent critical disruptions in daily business - for example, if additional computing power or storage space is needed.Office 365, SharePoint and OneDrive under control
Dell also introduced the Dell Administrator for Office 365 in Texas. For IT administrators, this solution is designed to provide a tool to simplify the management and monitoring of collaboration platforms. As on-premise installations can be included, the solution is the ideal management platform for all cloud variants, promises Dell.
Another product in Austin's novelty catalog was Dell Foglight for Virtualization 8.3. This tool is also intended to make the work of IT administrators easier. Dell makes it easier to monitor virtual and physical servers.

"The new Cloud Platform System Standard, which is at the heart of the Dell Hybrid Cloud System for Microsoft, provides a solution that goes far beyond the capabilities of previously available integrated systems," Guthrie continued.
