Dell Systems Management Offerings
Dell’s suite of Systems Management offerings extend a wide variety of tools, products, and services. Dell’s
strategy is to leverage an existing systems management framework that you may be currently using.
However, if you do not have a framework, Dell provides in-house tools or tools from our partners. Dell
also offers professional services to install or train on any of the Dell products and tools along with other
services to manage your environment. All the solutions are centered around Dell’s PowerEdge server
hardware management featuring iDRAC with Lifecycle Controller. The following figure shows the Dell
systems management offerings.
