As Dell works with three possible investment suitors to take itself private, it has consolidated itself internally while also planning to build a bridge across its storage platforms. Over the past three months, Dell has consolidated its three storage product divisions -- PowerVault, EqualLogic and Compellent -- under one umbrella: Dell Storage. The company is now working toward tighter integration between those platforms in the form of a single systems management capability, said Pete Korce, general manager of Dell Storage.
