NT COMPUTEAC & DELL
Where the big “Servers” Play

Last week, I had the privilege of spending a few hours with some of Guyana’s most respected I.T professionals, made possible with the kind courtesy of NT Computeac–one, if not our country’s top Dell direct partner. Dell was here!

Yes! You’re reading right, the world’s top PC’s and Servers maker was here! Explained and demonstrated at the famous Marriott hotel, the “big techs” of Guyana gathered for what was one of the most intriguing, fascinating and certainly jaw-dropping few hours ever spent in their tech lives…The guys from DELL and NT kept us on the edge…the edge of technology, that is, while the fellas from Marriott kept us on our feet, visiting the tables with their delicacies, tickling our taste buds with every bite! Here was a mixture of “Bits and Bytes” all under one roof. Did it get better? Oh Yeah! One of the participants walked away with one Dell latitude notebook, compliments of NT Computeac. So, here’s “bit” of what took place on that phenomenal day.

DELL runs on DELL
Dell representative, Mr. Jose Torres, made it clear-“Dell has leadership that benefits every customer; they are #1 in cloud storage-with over 1 billion in health images among the lot”. The only thing Dell rivals can do is speculate; why? Well Dell is a private entity, so your information stays with them.

THE FUTURE IS HERE… NT Computeac partners with Dell to bring the best of both worlds; the blade and the rack code name-“FX architecture”. Now this is totally redefining data swiftness with software merging. This was emphasised by another Dell personnel, Mr. Sebastien Cabrera.

The ability to quickly deploy and redirect your resources helps create a dynamic, workload-optimized converged infrastructure that redefines data centre agility and enables you to stay ahead of your competition. Bridge from a traditional data centre to one that is software defined, and gain new efficiencies that share cooling, power, networking and PCI expansion slots with the various FX server and storage components that plug into the chassis.

Easily fit your infrastructure to your workloads with “bite-sized” modular blocks of computing and storage resources. With FX in place, you can scale workloads on demand and add resources incrementally, without the expense and inefficiency of overprovisioning, and be ready for modern workloads. With its software to track which drive is about to fail, over 98% of Dell support comes remotely with the help of the lights indicator.

Dell PowerEdge FX2- “server lets data centres have a block party”
Dell’s PowerEdge FX2 claims to have re-invented the rack server. This modular server offers enterprises a flexible means of matching infrastructure with workload and allows them to scale up easily with demand.

Dell may have taken longer to jump on the bandwagon but a major difference is it has done it better. The FX2 offers a bigger choice of compute nodes and I/O options than the competition while chassis and node management is also far superior.

Emergence… at least it’s done it in style. Having reviewed many competing products from HP and Supermicro, we can safely say the FX2 is the best example of this technology we’ve seen so far, thanks to NT Computeac. We in Guyana find it a treat to be a part of such revolutionising technology, right in our back yards.

Vision-Drive-Stamina: That’s where Dell started.
For nearly three decades, Dell has been on an incredible journey, experiencing positive growth on a global scale. Through it all, it’s Dell customers, business partners and team members who kept the entity moving through the rapidly evolving world of technology.

NT Computeac…Dell Direct Partner
Founded in 1998 by professionals who already had years of experience in the computer industry and with that wealth of experience in hand, they saw the opportunity to establish a company that would develop and supply a better and more reliable product to the marketplace. The company had a very modest beginning, consisting of just a sales office and a small, modern well equipped workshop.

NT Computeac offers advanced new technologies, reliable sales and extensive technical and training services to its growing list of satisfied customers…after all, being a DELL direct partner is no game; then again, being “your technology partner” isn’t either!
