Environmental sustainability
Dell Technologies and Equinix have developed joint solutions to support our customers in this critical area by enabling businesses to deploy their infrastructure on Dell architecture within Equinix’s low-carbon colocation infrastructure covered by 96% renewables globally1. From there, we can dynamically connect to industry-leading cloud and network providers around the world via software-defined interconnection, gaining maximum choice, flexibility, cost control, and performance advantages.
