EditorialRevamping Data Centres with Advanced TechnologiesRapid technological evolution is the truth of the present time. Organisations are undergoing digital transformation, continually challenging data centres to upgrade their systems. This has put additional stress on the data centre operators who are now increasingly turning to new age technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, advanced analytics, and virtualisation to enhance their data centre management and workload monitoring. These technologies not only improve the way data centres work but also optimise infrastructure, reduce operational costs, and take control of remote management with real-time insights.According to a recent survey conducted by Intel, 66 per cent of data centre operators have AI-related projects in action, while 78 per cent of teams are planning to use AI features currently offered by their data centre management tools. Cloud is another technological solution that has already fuelling data centre transformations and will continue to do so in the near future. If predictions are to be believed, according to Cisco, cloud data centres will soon replace traditional data centres. The networking hardware company has even claimed that 94 per cent of workload and compute instances will be handled by cloud data centres by 2021, meaning traditional data centres will manage a very small sum of the total workload in the coming years.These trends indicate that data centre operators know the diverse benefits of advanced technologies and solutions, which also support the fact that the adoption will continue to accelerate. The market offers a plethora of data centre solution providers that deliver cutting-edge solutions to help organisations excel in their data centre journey, but finding the best is tough.
