From a data protection perspective, Dell is moving away from Dell Data Protection Suite to focus on PowerProtect Data Manager. The idea here is the silos kind of architecture because Dell Data Protection Suite includes multiple engines inside, and these can all be consolidated by Data Protection Central. However, at the end of the day, the customer still needs to go into details in each of these software depending on their environment and do some configurations. However, this depends on the customer requirement. A customer with a complex environment with multiple workloads may find that a single tool cannot cover everything. That is why we have multiple tools under the same licensing umbrella to make sure we are covering all customer workloads, including traditional applications, physical servers, and next-generation applications. Improvement is happening now because they are moving to a mixed generation platform which is trying to cover whatever use cases there are.
