Five ways to get the most out of your vital data infrastructure

Across industries, the new mantra is speed: How fast can companies innovate? Enterprise IT, data, and business leaders want to leverage data and digital technology to drive continual business, product, and service transformation.

Teams’ ability to convert mountains of raw data into actionable insights is now a key differentiator for their companies. The broader expansion of 5G networks, pervasive use of edge computing, development of powerful artificial intelligence (AI) platforms, and launch of generative AI large-language models (LLMs) have increased the value and actionability of data while scattering information well beyond the traditional walls of a server room.

Business teams are partnering with IT to accelerate their ability to tap into information. However, IT needs to solve multiple issues to accomplish this goal: addressing exponential data growth, managing data, and accelerating data access across platforms, while also solving security and sustainability concerns.

By deploying hybrid cloud infrastructures, enterprises gain the flexibility, scalability, and resilience they need to become data-driven while also improving security and reducing carbon emissions.
