Dell AX System for Azure Local
Your Foundation for the Future.
Intelligent Infrastructure for Your Azure Hybrid Cloud
In a world where management complexity and compliance pressure are mounting, you need infrastructure that powers innovation without sacrificing control. Critical workloads—from edge AI to legacy app rehosting—demand both agility and on-premises mastery.
Insight and Dell deliver the intelligent integration that transforms this challenge into an opportunity. Dell AX System for Azure Local is the unified solution where cloud innovation meets reliable, secure operation.
On-Premises Mastery Meets Edge Resilience
Operating at the edge in non-standard data center environments demands infrastructure that's both resilient and adaptable, whether managing resources on a manufacturing line, shop floor or at the foot of a wind turbine - this is where the Dell AX System for Azure Local excels.
This isn't just another cloud solution—it's a pioneering Premier Solution in the Azure Local catalogue.
Premier Solution: Key Capabilities
Flexible Hardware & Scalability:
The solution features intelligently designed Dell AX nodes, including the ruggedised AX-4000 for challenging edge locations. It provides flexible configurations for performance, capacity, and location needs. You can deploy single-machine Azure Local instances for remote offices, or scale up to 16 machines for larger projects.
Independent Storage Scaling:
Storage resources scale linearly and independently from compute using Dell PowerFlex software-defined storage. This flexibility means you can grow your storage capacity without being restricted by Azure Local compute or Storage Spaces Direct limitations.
Automated Lifecycle Management:
Ensure the entire stack is always current and secure. The solution provides full stack lifecycle management via Azure Update Manager integrated with Dell’s Solution Builder Extension (SBE). This automates firmware, driver, and security policy (WDAC) updates.
Seamless Integration & Support:
Dell OpenManage Integration with Microsoft Windows Admin Center links Dell hardware alerting to Azure Monitor and enables adding Dell HCI Configuration Profile (HCP) policies to Azure Policy. Plus, you get professional setup with Dell ProDeploy and single-contact, expert technical assistance with Dell ProSupport.
