This initiative serves ‎as an example of the improved efficiency, better savings and flexibility that open source ‎applications bring and the power they deliver to any data center for others to emulate, and ‎to develop their internal cloud infrastructure with relevant hardware and support from ‎trusted sources.‎

Dell’s PowerEdge C2100 and C6100 servers and Ubuntu software would be shipped with ‎tested reference architectures and a detailed implementation guides. Dell and Canonical ‎experts would also extend their support services. The Company was able to deliver an ‎IaaS solution as an integrated package entirely based on open standards by partnering ‎with Canonical.
