IT’s role in business has changed. Where it once was regarded as a cost center, it is now often considered to be a revenue creator. This evolution has fundamentally shifted IT organizations’ priorities when it comes to infrastructure design and architecture. Today, a major emphasis is being placed on acceleration.
With everything moving so fast now, businesses must enhance agility and operational efficiency across their entire IT infrastructure landscape, especially within the data center. Public cloud services provide a lot of advantages, but on- premises applications and infrastructure will continue to be a necessity. Operational agility, flexibility, and acceleration will be essential everywhere apps live—whether on- or off-premises.
