Technology giant Dell is recognizing significant cost savings, improving efficiencies and accelerating IT response times through their use of BMC Software’s (NYSE:BMC) Business Service Management (BSM) platform, according to a series of case studies and testimonial videos released on Dell.com.

With more than 25,000 servers and 115,000 desktops in 75 locations around the world, Dell requires a sophisticated toolkit to automate, manage, monitor and maintain its enormous IT operations. Dell utilizes BMC Software solutions to help meet the company’s global business objectives.

Dell has implemented BMC Capacity Management Essentials (CME) to reduce its physical hardware footprint and identify potential candidates for virtualization. CME collects data on CPU utilization, memory usage and input/output usage and gives Dell IT a clear dashboard view of which resources should be virtualized.

Dell leverages BMC Performance Assurance to analyze server performance and target opportunities for optimization. The solution enables Dell to examine memory and usage data and project necessary infrastructure changes.

Dell credits the company’s use of BMC Batch Impact Manager with reducing the number of trouble tickets by 75 percent, enabling the IT staff to focus on higher priorities.

BMC CONTROL-M allows Dell to monitor and schedule a variety of jobs within their complex server environment. Currently, Dell executes more than 75,000 jobs through BMC CONTROL-M.

BMC BladeLogic Operations Manager scans for patches, patch analysis and distribution of patches to 4,000 Linux servers. This streamlines processes and allocates resources automatically versus running reports and jobs manually. Automating these manual tasks virtually eliminates the risk of human error, enabling Dell to enforce compliance.

Dell also relies on BMC Remedy IT Service Management (ITSM) to support an end-user community of approximately 90,000 end users. With Remedy ITSM, Dell has a standard platform which provides incident management, asset configuration management, change management, release management and more. All of these services are unified via a connection to BMC’s Atrium Configuration Management Database to track the pieces through their lifecycles.
