Making datacentres of tomorrow
Today the need to overhaul the IT infrastructure has become a kind of ‘work in progress’ phenomena for every major enterprise and government entity. There is continuous rise in the number of data hungry users and applications, there is optimism around emerging technologies such as cloud and data in itself has become an asset and opportunity—hence it is not surprising that CIOs, CTOs and government IT heads are now keenly looking for a flawless IT architecture for compute, data storage and networking.
Few years ago, the American technology firm VMware introduced the concept of software defined datacentre (SDDC) into the industry, which basically allows a company to manage typical hardware and devices of the traditional datacentre by intelligent software systems, leading to lower cost, better security model and faster deployment of applications and services for the end users. The concept has started to gain traction and now the company has about several thousand customers worldwide including in India that are at various stages of deployment.
