Dell, a member of Oracle Partner Network (OPN), announced
it is the first networking provider to have achieved Oracle Validated
Integration with its Dell Force10 Open Automation Plug-in for Oracle Enterprise
Manager 12c designed to provide visibility into the networking stack for
both physical and virtual infrastructure.
Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c makes it easy for
partners to leverage their investment in building management capabilities for
non-Oracle technologies.
Through automatic conversion tools for plug-ins, partners
can convert previously-built plug-ins and connectors to the latest version of
Oracle Enterprise Manager and have these plug-ins or connectors validated
through the Oracle Validated Integration program.
Achieving Oracle Validated Integration with Oracle
Enterprise Manager 12c shows tremendous momentum for Dell Force10 and
our Open Automation framework,” said Dario Zamarian, vice president and general
manager, Dell Networking.
This type of industry-leading integration helps our
customers simplify management and bridge the silos between networking and
compute, whether in clouds or traditional data centers,” Zamarian added.
Oracle
has updated the Oracle Validated Integration program to enable partners to test
and validate plug-ins and connectors with Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c.
Oracle Validated Integration gives customers confidence
that integrations between Oracle Enterprise Manager and complementary partner
solutions have been validated to work together as designed. This can help
reduce risk, improve system implementation cycles, and provide for smoother
upgrades and simpler maintenance.
Having the Dell Force10 networking stack managed by
Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c provides our mutual customers with a
complete application to disk and cloud management solution that extends
visibility deep into the networking stack,” said Sushil Kumar, vice president
Product Strategy and Business Development, Oracle.
Dell recently announced
new Dell EqualLogic storage solutions and supporting software to help customers
address the data management needs of increasingly dynamic, virtualized data
centers.
The company also released details of new integration
across its storage portfolio with the forthcoming VMware vSphere 5
virtualization and cloud infrastructure platform.
