The Data Center
Today’s Data Center is a showcase of the organization’s IT capabilities - a “nerve center” that houses and governs many of the technologies critical to a modern organization’s operations. It is, thus, imperative that the Data Center feature the most efficient and advanced technologies, the goal being – greater operational efficiency and ROI. Modernizing the data center, in order to take advantage of the performance and energy efficiency increases of newer IT technologies and capabilities, such as cloud computing, as against the traditional method of data center upgrades that takes a serial and silo-ed approach, is often referred to as Data Center Transformation. A typical data center transformation initiative is a step-by-step approach through integrated projects carried out over time with regard to standardization/consolidation, virtualization, automation and security.
