Toward the self-driving data center
Enterprise is embracing the era of hybrid infrastructure in order to deliver IT workloads which continue to grow, evolve and fragment. Long-term investment decisions on infrastructure are made in a world where both business needs and technological solutions are transforming rapidly. Effectively managing capacity and operations between on-premise, colocation and cloud is complicated further by very rapid demand growth, resourcing constraints and the relative inexperience of many fast-growing markets. Add the Edge opportunity into the mix and the options for delivering enterprise workloads become even more flexible, fluid and complex. Hybrid may be just a beginning.
