Optimize your IT with an open hyperconverged infrastructure

Distribution of mobile core and edge computing capabilities for 5G is key for latency sensitive applications, but it comes at a cost. A distributed network will increase power demands and bring new power requirements at the core and the edge, so new power saving techniques will be necessary to support 5G functional foundations s

Every data center admin knows about the myriad of ways to take a data center down: fires, power and network equipment failures, and the activities of hackers and cyber criminals.

This free 1-hour webinar from GigaOm Research features analyst Jake Dolezal and will focus on comparing Web Application Firewall (WAF) security platforms in an enterprise with high performance needs. This webinar will discuss web application security mechanisms deployed in the cloud. The cloud enables enterprises to differentiate and innovate with microservices at a rapid pace. However, the cloud is just as vulnerable, if not more so, to attacks and breaches as on-premises APIs and apps are. Our focus is specifically on approaches to securing apps, APIs, and microservices that are tuned for high performance and availability. We define “high performance” as companies that experience workloads of more than 1,000 transactions per second (tps) and require a maximum latency below 30 milliseconds across the landscape.

According to 451 Research, colocation providers will continue to grow going forward forecasting the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for global MTDC revenue at 9.3% from 2017 to 2022. Successful colocation companies are in a constant state of expansion, challenged with designing and building new facilities at rapid speed in order not to miss a market opportunity. But getting new facilities up and running is just the tip of the iceberg. A worldwide shortage of experienced data center professionals makes quickly recruiting, training, and retaining qualified data center staff a completely other challenge.
