Molti analisti ritengono che questa mossa di Dell miri a riguadagnare nei confronti di , la leadership mondiale nella vendita di PC.
Barring a change of heart or a wild, Caricabatteria HP 378858-001 consumer-driven financial upturn, it looks as if Dell () is out of the consumer PC business and is turning its Sauron-like eye towards the enterprise – the one place where people upgrade their PCs at least once a year. According to , Dell is “dramatically changing” their entire business with a focus away from “shiny boxes” and more focus on barebones server and fleet hardware Caricabatteria HP 378859-001.
We haven’t heard back from Dell yet about Batteria Acer TravelMate 2450 what this decision means to the company, but rather than assume all Dell consumer hardware is going away I suspect we’ll see more focus on enterprise desktops and laptops and less of an emphasis on the low-margin, low-cost netbook, entry-level PC, Acer LC.BTP00.004 and tablet/convertible lines. This also means a move away from brick and mortar sales, a place where no one is making money. Maybe this really is the post-PC era?
has long been synonymous with servers built around the so-called ‘x86′ processors used in Acer LC.BTP04.001 personal computers. That might not always be the case, Forrest Norrod, general manager for Dell’s server solutions group hinted Monday.
“We’ve had ARM systems in our lab for over a Acer BT.T5003.001 year,” Norrod says, referring to the processor architecture shared by the processors that power most of the world’s smartphones. “If that’s what our customers demand that’s what we’ll offer.”
Norrod spoke with Forbes at an event in where Dell introduced a portfolio of new blade, rack, and tower servers.
Il problema si è presentato particolarmente nel settore dei server in cui Intel ha accusato un ritardo sensibile.
La Dell è pure presente sul mercato di altri prodotti informatici, quali , , e Caricabatteria HP Compaq 2510p numerosi tipi diversi di .
La singolarità di Dell, sin dalla sua costituzione ad opera del fondatore , è stata quella di non proporre modelli prestabiliti, ma lasciare al cliente la più ampia libertà di personalizzazione. Di fatto si tratta di un di marca.
Dovendo assemblare gli elaboratori sulla specifica richiesta del Caricabatteria HP Compaq nc2400 cliente, Dell non ha mai utilizzato una rete di rivenditori, preferendo il contatto diretto con il cliente finale.
Se nei primi anni questo si realizzava tramite moduli di Caricabatteria HP Pavilion tx1000 ordine via fax nei quali il cliente indicava il prodotto desiderato, a cui seguiva un preventivo da parte della ditta, in tempi più moderni il sito web della ditta ne è diventato il principale snodo.
To be fair, the statement could portend far less than we should expect. Dell has been among the walking dead in PC hardware for most of this decade, producing little of interest (the Adamo was their big consumer play Batteria Acer Aspire 9800 and presumably Alienware will remain a consumer-facing company) but there’s still money to be made in selling commodity hardware for a few percentage points over cost. I doubt the outcry will be as vociferous as it was when HP () threatened to pull its Batteria Acer Aspire 9810 consumer business, mostly because Dell has no products of any interest to the enthusiast. The anger at HP was more about their destruction of Palm rather than the possibility that we wouldn’t be able to by a handsome, staid PC in a black/grey case.
“That’s a reasonable extrapolation,” Norrod says.
In an interview with CNBC, , the founder, , and chairman of Dell , said that his isn’t just about PCs anymore. Dell claimed that are a lot more profitable than personal computers, and contribute to approximately half of his company’s profits.
Of course, Acer BT.T5003.002 signaling that Dell has options gives the Round Rock, Texas company more leverage when negotiating with or AMD for x86 processors. However, the ability to make a credible case that Dell could adopt ARM-based processors — such a those sold by Samsung, , , and Nvidia — also underscores how different Dell is than it was a decade ago.
While Dell once built servers that were little more than rack-mounted Batteria ASUS K40I versions of the personal computers Dell is best known for, the company has been reshaping to capture surging demand for data center gear. Since 2009, former IBM mergers and acquisitions chief David Johnson has led Dell through a dozen acquisitions to Batteria ASUS K40IB round out its portfolio of networking and data storage products.
Dell has also worked to make it easier to manage vast fleets of servers. One of its crown jewels is the company’s lifecycle management technology, which relies on a package of software and proprietary hardware bolted onto the motherboards of all Dell’s servers. 500 engineers work on this feature alone, Norrod says.
“Our management is Batteria ASUS K40ID independent of the processor powering the server,” Norrod says. “If we wanted to incorporate ARM into our server lineup, to any management tool it just looks like a PowerEdge server.”
As , the only company to truly pull off this move was . They sold their consumer hardware wholesale to a Batteria Acer Aspire 9920G partner who could do their brand justice and they are thriving under the radar, producing interesting research and machines like Watson, the Jeopardy playing super-computer. I doubt Dell could build a super computer, but they can put together a mean RAID array.
Making a switch to ARM processors might let Dell build servers that can offer some interesting options for customers concerned about power consumption. “ARM has some interesting advancements around power density,” Norrod says. Although Batteria ASUS K40IE also adds that Intel and AMD have both been working to trim down their processors power consumption as well.
Don’t expect ARM to dominate the data center soon
Of course, ARM processors won’t dominate data centers anytime soon. For starters, ARM processors can only gulp down 32 bits of data at a time, compared to the 64-bits that can be easily handled by x86 processors. “I don’t believe Asus A32-U53 customer are going to want to port their applications back to 32 bits from 64 bits.”
64-bit ARM processors won’t be ready for Asus A41-U53 work in production servers until the end of 2013, Norrod figures. Even then, however, Intel and AMD will have a huge advantage because the vast majority of business software is written to run on x86 processors.
Still, Norrod is clearly keeping his options open Asus A42-U53. Samsung has hired processor designers from AMD to help build 64-bit ARM processors, former AMD employees say.
So has anyone from Dell — which is based in Round Rock, Texas — met with anyone from Samsung’s server processor team, which is based a short drive away in nearby Asus 70-NXM1B2200Z Austin?

Dell has begun to shift its focus to its growing $2.75 trillion Batteria Fujitsu LifeBook P2046 enterprise IT business. But the company, which witnessed a significant drop in earnings last quarter and has fallen behind and Acer in terms of market share, still needs its PC business, which gives it the scale it needs to deal with Batteria Fujitsu LifeBook P2110 component suppliers who are willing to give it good prices on parts like chips and hard drives and all the other things it needs to build a server.
Dell has been working hard to expand its storage portfolio for the past few years. Dell entered the storage market in 2008 with its purchase of EqualLogic. However, the company was out of luck with its Fujitsu FPCBP130 much-hyped bid for 3PAR Inc., losing out to archrival Hewlett-Packard Co. (NYSE:- ) in August 2010. 3PAR provides highly virtualized with advanced data management features such as dynamic tiering and thin provisioning for cloud computing environments.
But Dell made up for the loss with the acquisition of in February 2011. Compellent is the global provider of enterprise data storage systems, which facilitate the automation of data movement and management at the Fujitsu FPCBP130AP block or granular level.
We are unclear about the extent to which the acquisition will be financially accretive to Dell. But we believe that the continuous enhancements in the storage vertical would lead to a much higher percentage of Fujitsu FPCBP131 total revenue, going forward. Dell currently generates 3.0% of total revenue from its storage business.
Inc. (NasdaqGS: - ) reportedly acquired backup and maker for an undisclosed amount, last Friday. The acquisition reflects the world’s third largest PC maker’s shift toward the higher margin segments, such as software, storage and services Batteria Fujitsu LifeBook P2120.
