The networking stack defined at the beginning of the client

server era underwent little change for 20+ years.

That stack was NOT ready for the cloud era.

Dell EMC VEP Customer Case Study: Dell IT

Background

• WAN currently supports Dell’s world-class supply chain (12 global

data centers, 300 branch office locations)

Pain points

• WAN traffic doubling every 18 months

• Upgrading physical WAN infrastructure required lengthy and

disruptive process

Business actions

• Conducted extensive 2 year evaluation of modernizing WAN

• Arrived at strategic decision to virtualize WAN

• Selected best-of-breed solution:

- VEP4600 as uCPE host

- VMware ESXi for network virtualization

- VeloCloud for SD-WAN

Conclusions

• Increased WAN headroom enhances competitive advantage

• Provisioning automation and SLA monitoring improves operational

efficiency

• Additional broadband links reduce MPLS costs

• Dell plans to add more VNFs, including virtual firewall

Virtualized WAN delivers competitive advantage for a world-class supply chain

“At Dell we’ve always said we’ll use our own

products if they’ll enhance our own operations.

That’s definitely the case for VEP4600.”

- Jason Chan, Senior Director

Physical switch management is still a pain point

• Difficult to maintain and orchestrate

• Limited visibility/control from virtual networks

• Leads to over-provisioning and waste

SmartFabric Director turns Dell EMC PowerSwitch into

smarter switches – becoming more aware of the virtual

overlay networks by VMware.

Finally the physical switches can keep pace with the

virtualization and software-defined networking layers!
