DCD>Australia (Sydney, June 27) is pleased to welcome Jeremy Deutsch, Managing Director of Equinix Australia, to present on the theme of ‘Interconnection is the new cloud’.
Jeremy has more than 16 years experience in the ICT industry. He is responsible for the overall performance and expansion of Equinix’s business and operations in Australia, including existing International Business ExchangeTM (IBX®) data centres in Sydney (SY1, SY2, SY3 and SY4) and Melbourne (ME1). He also focuses on customer relationship development, leading the sales team to deliver new wins and grow revenue.
Jeremy, together with his team and the Global Solutions Architect team, assist companies in Australia to build strategies based on Interconnection Oriented ArchitectureTM (IOA) “to re-design their IT to meet the demands of digital business.”
Jeremy explains the development of ecosystems and how they meet the emerging requirements of digital business:
“As enterprises increasingly look at IoT deployments to connect customers, clouds and data in new ways, this is presenting a significant opportunity to the data centre industry in 2017. Why? Because centralised, legacy IT infrastructure cannot manage these new levels of connectivity and the explosion of a new data field.”
Interconnection is the key to this process, he suggests, since the proliferation of IoT devices creates immense demand for real-time data collection, analysis and security, which can only be addressed by adopting an interconnection-first infrastructure. Jeremy argues also that interconnection offers enterprises the direct, private, high speed connections they need to keep up with the speed of digital business and to get closer to their customers, clouds and services to enable collaboration. The implications of this transformation are those that Jeremy will focus on since they have profound implications for data infrastructure:
“An IOA strategy shifts the fundamental IT delivery architecture from siloed and centralised to interconnected and distributed. This gives companies proximity to the
people, locations and cloud services they need, precisely where data is generated, so it can be quickly accessed, processed and analysed.”
This transformation is particularly pertinent to Australia. A recent survey of 1,000 global IT decision makers commissioned by Equinix found that Australia is one of the countries most avidly pursuing interconnection. Two out of five interconnected Australian companies responding to the research have realised more than AUD 14 million in revenue opportunities and cost savings. At the event, Jeremy will discuss the power of interconnection and its impact on business, and how an Interconnection Oriented ArchitectureTM can help companies capitalise on opportunities to scale and grow.
