Dell Technologies was founded in 1984 by Michael Dell in Austin, Texas, originally under the name PC's Limited, and rebranded to Dell Computer Corporation in 1988. The company went public in 1988 on NASDAQ, and Michael Dell famously started the business from his University of Texas dorm room with $1,000 in capital. Dell is headquartered in Round Rock, Texas. The company trades on the NYSE under the ticker DELL. Dell Technologies in its current form was created in 2016 when Dell Inc. acquired EMC Corporation in a deal valued at approximately $67 billion — one of the largest technology acquisitions in history at the time — and took on the Technologies name to reflect the expanded portfolio. The company employs roughly 120,000 people globally.

Dell's primary business spans two segments: Infrastructure Solutions Group (ISG), which covers servers, storage, and networking sold to enterprises and data centers, and Client Solutions Group (CSG), which covers PCs, laptops, and workstations sold to consumers, SMBs, and enterprises. Dell sells both direct to customers — a model Michael Dell pioneered in the 1980s as "build-to-order" — and through channel partners and resellers. The ISG segment competes heavily in the enterprise data center market, including PowerEdge servers and PowerStore and PowerMax storage arrays.

Dell's named product lines include PowerEdge servers, which are a mainstay of on-premises enterprise data centers; PowerStore and PowerMax storage platforms (inherited from the EMC acquisition); Dell EMC VxRail, a hyperconverged infrastructure appliance built in partnership with VMware; and the client-side XPS, Latitude, Precision, and Alienware lines covering consumer, business, workstation, and gaming segments respectively. The VMware relationship was a defining feature of Dell's portfolio after the EMC deal, as VMware was a majority-owned subsidiary of Dell Technologies; Dell spun off VMware as an independent company in November 2021 in a transaction that returned significant value to Dell shareholders and simplified the corporate structure.

In the PC market, Dell competes directly with HP Inc. and Lenovo, which has held the global PC shipment leadership position for several years. In enterprise servers, competitors include HPE (Hewlett Packard Enterprise) and Supermicro, while in enterprise storage the competitive set includes NetApp, Pure Storage, and HPE. Dell is consistently ranked among the top two server vendors globally by shipment volume. The company has positioned itself as a significant player in AI infrastructure, with its PowerEdge servers configured for GPU-dense AI training and inference workloads gaining prominence during the AI infrastructure build-out cycle of 2023–2025.

Dell has had a longstanding commercial and R&D presence in Israel. The company maintains offices in Israel, with operations in the Tel Aviv area, primarily focused on enterprise sales, pre-sales engineering, and customer support. Dell's RSA Security division — acquired as part of the EMC/RSA portfolio — had Israeli engineering personnel, though RSA was later divested by Dell in 2020 to a consortium led by Symphony Technology Group. Specific current Israel headcount figures are not publicly disclosed at a granular level.
