In any case, there’s an emerging story about how the Austin giant has made a slight, semantic change in its managed services division, renaming the former ProManage Managed Services to the much more elegant and simple Dell Managed Services.
There are several discussion threads about Dell and managed services in the storage blogosphere–which is, believe it or not, one of the most impassioned (and funniest) little worlds in the world–as well as among several analysts. Dell, never a technology innovator, has made its historical mark by continuously redefining logistics.
From selling computers to a few individuals in a dorm room, then to the masses via mail order, then to corporations through a direct supply chain that was simple and effective, the company has always excelled at delivering in what it offers.
Now Dell is turning part of its attention to managed services, and by implication, Cloud Computing, as it strives to serve Managed Service Providers with a portfolio of SaaS applications.
