Cyxtera and Dell Technologies have teamed up to help customers deploy infrastructure more quickly. Cyxtera, the data center colocation and interconnection services provider, will deliver Dell’s infrastructure combined with its own colocation and network technologies.

The companies will provide global enterprises of all sizes full-stack infrastructure as a service. They will leverage Cyxtera’s global footprint of colocation facilities and digital exchange network fabric.

This includes compute infrastructure, network connectivity, colocation space and power at the individual server and rack unit levels. These capabilities enable a cloud-like experience for the deployment of workloads. They require the control, performance and security of dedicated infrastructure and colocation.

Customers will be able to leverage Dell infrastructure through Cyxtera’s enterprise bare metal solution. It’s an on-demand model that provides the benefits of dedicated colocation and network infrastructure. This results in an extension of their existing environments without the burden of capital expenditures, lengthy implementation cycles or depreciating assets.

Additionally, customers will be able to test the capabilities offered by Dell and Cyxtera via Cyxtera’s Dell Experience Lab. This is powered by Cyxtera’s digital exchange platform. The lab will give customers a “hands-on” experience that demonstrates how the technology would work in their environment.
