"With the current situation, work and learn-from-anywhere will be the new reality, and we are building technology ecosystems of the future to deliver experiences that are more connected and productive. That means enabling network infrastructure for 5G and the data era, embedding security solutions that are intelligent, automated and extends everywhere the customers' data travels, and prioritising cloud and Software-as-a-Service consumption models," Ohrie said.

He said that cybersecurity will be a key focus area with the large amount of data generated and it was equally important to keep them secure and impenetrable from cyberattacks.

"Dell is focused on key six strategic technologies such as multi-cloud, edge, 5G, artificial intelligence, machine learning, data management and cyber security to enable end-to-end, modern IT systems for future.

"Apart from these, various consumption models such as Flex On Demand, Dell Tech On Demand and Project APEX – will further help us (and our partners) to meet customer's expectations and address their demands effectively," Ohrie said.
