The National Bank of Kuwait (NBK) has selected Dell EMC’s all-flash storage solutions to further strengthen their agility and highly available foundation to power “round the clock” applications and service delivery.

NBK has selected Dell EMC VMAX3 All Flash Array (AFA) which features software-defined reliability, availability and serviceability (RAS) technology to create the right IT environment to better support consistently increasing data streams and enable maximum application availability, while significantly reducing the response time.

With over 200 mission and business critical applications on the network, NBK will further reinforce these deployments with Dell EMC’s Non-Disruptive Migration (NDM) technology. NDM technology is specifically developed to ensure seamless data mobility between storage systems with zero impact on the hosted applications. Thus, making NBK the first organization in the Middle East to successfully perform a non-disruptive migration of critical applications to the new VMAX All Flash without any down time or services interruption.

Nikolaos Sfikas, Group Head of IT at National Bank of Kuwait “We’re pleased to have selected Dell EMC as our trusted partner and proud to showcase an advanced, resilient environment that is designed to provision the efficiency, agility and performance required to power our business operations and growth strategy.

Habib Mahakian, Vice President, Gulf at Dell EMC “NBK continues to revolutionize standards across the financial services sector and with a remarkable growth trajectory, the institution has worked to create a transformation driven environment to offer customers the very best in financial products and services.”
