How are technologies evolving in digital infrastructure and servers?
Pinkesh Kotecha - Technologies in digital infrastructure and servers are constantly evolving to meet the demands of today's rapidly changing business environment. The span of digital infrastructure now prominently includes IoT, Sensors, Wearables, Mobile devices and Robotics. With respect to servers, the consumption patterns are heavily inclined towards hyper converged infrastructures. Some key trends and developments that are contributing to business growth are -
- Cloud computing - Cloud computing is now the standard for modern businesses. It offers several benefits, including scalability, flexibility, cost savings, and easier management of IT resources. Cloud service providers are continually adding new features and services to their platforms to make it even easier for businesses to move their operations to the cloud.
- Edge computing - Edge computing is becoming increasingly important as more and more devices are connected to the internet. With edge computing, data is processed locally, rather than being sent to a central server, which reduces latency and improves the overall performance of the network.
- Hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) - HCI is an infrastructure system that integrates computing, storage, and networking into a single system. This simplifies management and reduces hardware costs, making it an attractive option for businesses looking to modernize their data centers.
- Software-defined infrastructure/ SD-WAN - Software-defined infrastructure (SDI)/ SD-WAN refers to the use of software to manage and control hardware resources such as servers, storage, and networking. This makes it easier for businesses to manage their IT infrastructure and respond quickly to changing business needs.
