Adopting Dell Apex will enable Customers to access cutting-edge SAP technology and HCLTech services. What sets Dell Apex apart from traditional public hyperscalers is that it goes further by providing a "mini-hyperscaler" right in the customer's or HCLTech's data center, depending on the customer's preference. This empowers professionals like you to leverage the benefits of a dedicated, on-premises infrastructure while enjoying the flexibility, agility, and efficiency of a “mini-hyperscaler” solution.

This solution is a great example of HCLTech's ecosystem philosophy of getting the best of our key partners to enable efficient deployment of complex and customized SAP deployments while ensuring data sovereignty.”, said Anand Swamy, EVP, Head of ISV and Tech Ecosystems, HCLTech.
