"There is an overabundance of tools, but these tools lack integration. The emergence of platformization addresses both issues – overabundance and integration." Palo Alto brings together data from end points to cloud to data center for a complete platform approach.

Discussing Dell PowerStore’s 5:1 data reduction guarantee ✅ Watch this highlight from #DellSmarterStorage, where #theCUBE hears from Travis Vigil, SVP of ISG Portfolio Management at Dell Technologies, about how PowerStore’s data reduction assures efficiency to businesses. “We have been shipping PowerStore for more than four years now, and we have field-proven success from our previous releases, which boosted our confidence to take the data reduction guarantee from four-to-one to five-to-one on reducible data. It is a very straightforward guarantee versus some of the other things that you see in the market,” Vigil shares. “First, there's no assessment or program signature required. Second, it covers PowerStore for the entire maintenance contract up to five years, which is unlike some competitors who offer a shorter coverage period. Third, in the unlikely event you don't receive the efficiency promised, we will provide free drives, not just a discount on future purchase for up to 50% of the install capacity,” he adds. 📰 Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gnmXHtJh #DellPowerStore
