Dubai Municipality Selects Dell EMC to Power Smart Services

Visionary government authority trusts Dell EMC’s software-defined solutions to support wider transformation initiatives

Dubai Municipality announced a strategic collaboration with Dell EMC to create an integrated and agile technology foundation. This landmark project aims at driving the city’s advancing innovation agenda and contributing to the overarching goal of transforming Dubai into the world's smartest sustainable city by 2020, by offering digitally enabled services.

In its role, Dubai Municipality oversees smart transformation processes and initiatives across the city to help establish efficiency and effectiveness of all public services. To realize its sustainability ambitions, in line with Vision 2020, digital readiness of the city is critical. Believing ICT to be a core building block to help achieve this vision, the entity aimed to revamp its existing IT infrastructure with revolutionary software-defined solutions and provide streamlined ways to meet the challenges of mobility, public services, and safety — while promoting sustainability through world-class smart city services.

With a mandate to transform the IT foundation, Dubai Municipality worked with Dell EMC to implement their strategy and enable virtualization capabilities using software defined scale-out infrastructure

In addition to helping the entity in reducing the complexity of managing the IT infrastructure, the growing number of smart services and the resulting data, this solution also allows the IT staff to focus more on innovative projects, rather than maintain the infrastructure.

Together with Dell EMC, Dubai Municipality has created a truly advanced and agile platform to transform its position as a broker of smart services and add real value to the way citizens live their lives.

Ahmad Kajoor, Chief Information Officer at Dubai Municipality stated “We are proud to announce this strategic step forward in our journey of transformation with Dell EMC. We believe that a strong IT backbone is key to accelerate digital transformation and will help us come closer to our goal of achieving the vision of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum of putting Dubai on the frontline of global innovation and sustainability.”
