Macquarie Technology Group’s Cloud Services arm has reached titanium status in Dell Technologies’ partner program for 2025.
The cloud services provider said in a statement that reaching the top-level status reflects its technical expertise and long-term strategic collaboration with Dell, which includes it building its private and hybrid cloud solutions on the vendor’s infrastructure.
“Our Titanium Partner tier is a reflection of the strength of our collaboration with Dell Technologies, built on real innovation rather than pure volume of sales,” said Jonathan Staff, Macquarie Cloud Services head of private cloud.
“We don’t just resell Dell infrastructure — we integrate it into tailored cloud solutions that drive meaningful business outcomes for our customers.”
Macquarie said its approach to cloud infrastructure, rather than just being hardware reselling, was a key reason behind becoming a Titanium partner.
It also said it has made a multimillion-dollar investment in Dell’s PowerStore scalable all-flash array storage, which it claims can significantly enhance storage performance, operational efficiency and sustainability.
Macquarie said by using PowerStore, it has improved its private cloud infrastructure with up to a 360 per cent increase in throughput performance, 83 per cent reduction in latency, 68 per cent reduction in data centre space usage and 45 per cent lower power consumption.
“Our investment in cutting-edge storage and cloud technology is about delivering measurable value to our customers,” Staff added. “This relationship continues to grow because it’s strategic, long-term and built on innovation—not just transactions.”
Also important for its expansion has been its Macquarie Flex offering – a hybrid cloud solution combining Microsoft Azure Local (formerly Azure Stack HCI) and Dell APEX Cloud Platform for Microsoft Azure – that was launched in June last year.
