The World Economic Forum in January 2017 highlighted that digitization in the mining industry has the potential to deliver over $425 billion in shareholder, customer and environmental value by 2025.  Much of this value will come in the form of optimized operational effectiveness, increased productivity, and enhanced safety. However, with increased opportunity comes inherent uncertainty, and Ernst & Young has identified digital effectiveness as the top risk currently facing the mining and metals sector. Realizing the value of digitization requires strategic planning, strong industrial partnerships, realignment of culture, and appropriate selection and deployment of digitization technologies. Most mining companies are either actively engaged or in the process of evaluating how best to optimize their operations by leveraging digitization to drive efficiencies and remain competitive. Many however have yet to travel very far down the digitization path and are uncertain on where ...

Around this time of year, the three most important words seem to be, what comes next? To answer this question, many of us rely on expert’s predictions. For those managing the design, construction or operations of data centers, predictions are particularly useful because they help you prepare to handle whatever unforeseen circumstances lie ahead. With all of this in mind, I’ve been carefully tracking the data center management software space and have three critical 2018 predictions to share with you. PREDICTION #1 : The automation of facilities will significantly increase because of the democratization of DCIM. Recent innovations such as the introduction of cloud-based, data center management as a service ( DMaaS ) have simplified the implementation of DCIM (Data Center Infrastructure Management) functionality. This cloud-based shift has made it substantially easier for facilities to harness the data collected from power, cooling, and IT equipment. It has also reduced the cost and i...
