Autonomous vehicles have become a de facto analogy for emerging technology. It’s easy to understand why driverless cars won’t be engineered like those meant for humans. Cue the comparison here. Traditional data center service models are meant for a centralized architecture. The edge relies on distributed architecture; they can’t be built, operated, maintained the same way. Edge computing brings more complexity to service delivery. With a lack of onsite staff, multiple sites and remote locations, manning every deployment with a database administrator, engineer, electrical expert and security guard will be too expensive. The customer needs a simple, integrated cost-effective solution, i.e. software. In fact, edge requires a big shift in hardware and operations . It will rely on software and digital services to enable IT in understaffed locations and drive down price. The edge vision of software and services is characterized by: the ability to connect any asset to pull relevant, acti...

As the UN Climate Change Conference COP25 progresses in Madrid, there has never been greater recognition that Acting Now has become a global imperative to help protect our world and its people. Our planet is under pressure, from parts of the world’s oceans becoming depleted of oxygen, to the urgent need to negotiate more ambitious plans to limit global warming to 1.5°C, in line with the Paris Agreement. We need to move from conceptualization to adaptation, mitigation and means of actualization at scale to negate the deep impacts we are already experiencing across land and sea, climate, energy and ecosystems. #TimeForAction is the United Nations’ global clarion call to raise individual and collective awareness, ambition, and action, for which we have seen our youth increasingly leading the way: ‘Youth have played a fantastic role throughout this year to raise awareness for the need for urgent Climate Action’ – Patricia Espinosa, UN Climate Change Executive Secretary during Youth...

Digitization is driving the need for increased resiliency across data center architectures, from cloud-based data centers to the edge. I co-authored a white paper a couple of years back focused on this very topic. But what does it mean to be resilient? How do I ensure my business processes remain available? In the past, most would turn to the various existing tier or criticality methods to assess a data center or design a new data center to the required availability level. About 2 ½ years ago, The Green Grid saw an opportunity to build on these methods, not only to contemplate traditional redundancy and availability approaches, but to also consider the impact to availability by innovative and sustainable energy. I have had the privilege of participating in the workgroup that collaborated on an open standard for data center availability, called OSDA . The output of this workgroup resulted in an online tool assessing availability levels. It is a work-in-progress as it focuses mainly o...

If the questions I heard at our 2018 Innovation Summit are any indication, cloud and service providers may finally be embracing data center management as a service (DMaaS) platforms to help leverage data about their own data centers. At a time when speed-to-market, scale and security are paramount, colocation providers know they need to best ensure the agility, availability and operational efficiency of their data centers’ physical infrastructures. Data Center Management as a Service: an effective solution for speed and cost There’s never really been a doubt about using analytics to help run data centers optimally. But the concept is catching on now because everyone is being challenged to do better. For instance, if colocation providers normally deliver a data center in six months, now they’re being asked to do it in five. The same can be said of bringing down costs. Over time, the low-hanging fruit has been driven out of data center design , so it’s increasingly difficult to s...
