Digital transformation Technology will move from the realm of IT is a balancing act to become inherent across the business From “status quo” to “embracing change” Last 15 years Next 15 years IT-centric Business-centric Systems of engagement Systems of record and insight IT INVESTMENTS $ Traditional applications Cloud-native apps Strategic partnerships will matter “Optimize” mode “Invest” mode IT transformation Digital transformation Transactional data Streams of data and and reporting analytics Traditional Cloud-native Internet Internet of Everything applications applications 2000 TIME 2030 3

New applications are producing more data than ever More Pace of New DATA CHANGE TECHNOLOGIES 44 ZB They also can’t support New applications are Old storage technologies creating more data – can’t keep up with the new technologies that 44 ZB will live in the pace of change enable innovative datacenter by 2020, services according to IDC 1 1 https://www.emc.com/leadership/digital-universe/2014iview/executive-summary.htm 4

Scaling to tomorrow’s business needs Many are choosing software-defined storage (SDS) solutions for hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI). It delivers simpler, streamlined, scalable storage that is: At a fraction of the high-performance cost of traditional, storage flash-optimized hyper-converged built for any application 5

SDS + Hardware = Success Choosing the right technology But “software defined” means hardware matters more than ever. Reliable designs Storage performance and ROI depend heavily on the performance and reliability of the hardware – that comes High-performance from a trusted partner who has your needs in mind. Integrated building blocks Easy to purchase Easy to deploy 6

Are you facing any of these challenges? Configuring new Takes too long to Hard to locate the infrastructure can configure, test and source of a problem, validate making it hard to be complex know who to call for help 7

HIT ‘n’ MISS TRAIL WAIT FOR THE RIGHT PART AVENUE Should have bought OUT OF TIME LANE a READY Solution Most #@&!! everyone agrees … TRADITIONAL IT WAY OLD HABITS BLVD complexity is IT Enemy #1 WHY CHANGE ROAD ALWAYS DONE IT THIS WAY

Why Dell EMC?

Why Dell EMC over the Competition 3 Reasons Known faster Convenient time Unified Sales and configurations savings Technical Support • “…in terms of simplicity, ease “The [Dell EMC] products were On vSAN : PowerEdge FC430 vastly easier to set up, Dell outperformed HPE solution by of setup, and ease of more than 3X – with 4X better EMC was far more responsive maintenance: Almost like to service requests and performance per watt 1 night and day when questions (hours compared to compared to HPE’s • On SAP HANA : Dell EMC days or weeks for a response), comparable offerings.” 3 holds several world records and generally far less red tape for performance 2 with Dell EMC over HPE.” 4 1 http://www.principledtechnologies.com/Dell/PowerEdge_FX2_VMware_Virtual_SAN_0615_v2.pdf 2 https://www.sap.com/about/benchmark.html 3,4 Why HPE Account LeSaint Logistics Is Moving to Dell EMC 19
