השג מצוינות במרכז הנתונים עם IBM ו-VMware - IBM Blog

בפוסט האחרון, we looked at creating a blueprint for a sustainable data center. Now we’ll look at how to get the most out of a modern data center.

We don’t need to re-create the wheel all the time. Sometimes, we can look to others who have gone before us for inspiration and examples to help shape our vision for success. And, when we work with partners that have “been there, done that,” we can accelerate our success, taking our vision to a mission to reality.

A successful data center implementation can best be described as a distributed, dynamic, efficient and resilient IT nucleus. The data center of the future should support and accelerate your short- and long-term business objectives by being:

• streamlined, energy-efficient and almost entirely automated;
• capable of handling real-time data processing and analytics for massive data sets;
• resistant to human error, cyberattacks and other operational disruptions; and
• sustainable and aligned with the global push towards reduced carbon footprints.

For inspiration, look across industries to uncover examples of data center success.

• אוצר: Optimized for high-speed transactions and can assist in providing robust security, harnessing AI for fraud detection and real-time risk management.
• בריאות: Support telemedicine and patient data analytics, requiring stringent compliance regulations.
• קמעונאות: Manage e-commerce platforms, customer data analytics and supply chain logistics, where data analysis often must occur at the edge.
• ייצור: Enable efficient and intelligent manufacturing processes to better scale production, reduce downtime and optimize strategies and operations.
• כלי רכב: Process vast amounts of data to support the design, development, testing and operation of connected and autonomous vehicles.

The keys to success lie in creating a strategic blueprint and forming the right partnerships. Collaborating with leading technology and service providers who understand your industry’s and company’s unique challenges and opportunities will help you define a strategy to transform your data center from a cost center to a sustainable, strategic asset.
