Dell EMC Brings the Tactical Azure Stack to the Edge

Dell EMC launched a ruggedized, field-deployable platform for Microsoft Azure Stack, unlocking new applications for government, military, energy, and mining. This is just one of Microsoft’s new cloud and edge capabilities that it announced today for its U.S. government customers.Azure Stack is Microsoft’s hybrid cloud platform that brings the Azure cloud into an organization’s data center. Dell EMC already offers a hybrid cloud platform based on the Azure Stack that it launched in May 2017. The Dell EMC Cloud for Microsoft Azure Stack allows companies to quickly deploy and manage applications across Azure public clouds and on-premises private clouds. The new ruggedized Dell EMC platform, called the Dell EMC Tactical Microsoft Azure Stack, was built in partnership with Tracewell Designs. It brings the Azure cloud to operating environments where network connectivity is an issue; where mobility and high portability are required; in settings with harsh conditions that require military specifications solutions; and to environments with high security requirements.
