Impact for Emerging Digital Infrastructure:
- Role of the traditional data center will be relegated to that of a legacy holding area, dedicated to very specific services than cannot be supported elsewhere, or supporting those systems that are most economically efficient on-premises
- As interconnect services, cloud providers, the Internet of Things (IoT), edge services and SaaS offerings continue to proliferate, the rationale to stay in a traditional data center topology will have limited advantages
- This is not an overnight shift, but an evolutionary change in thinking in how we deliver services to our customers and to the business
