According to the Data Center Institute, by 2010 more than half of all data centers will have to relocate to new facilities or outsource some applications. If you're running an IT organization, this and other issues such as the decrease in data center professionals and power availability have serious implications to your business. These issues can hamper your efforts to meet increasing expectations for "always on" support for business services, whether intended for your customers, employees or your partners. The potential business impact of data center downtime and the increasing speed and unpredictability of business change put a premium on application availability and data center flexibility.
In this white paper, learn how data center transformation helps your organization shift spending from maintenance and management to focus on projects that support business growth and innovation while significantly reducing operating costs. Built on an adaptive infrastructure and supported by application modernization and service management, a nextgeneration data center provides the foundation for 21st century technology requirements and the services needed to power the business.
