Data center migration, this ubiquitous connection produces a lot of big data, which is a huge data set. It is difficult to analyze with traditional tools, including unstructured data or information not in the traditional database. IDC predicts that the big data market will increase from only $3 billion 200 million five years ago to 32 billion 400 million dollars. Big data has great potential in the financial services industry, healthcare industry, manufacturing and other industries. New industries such as driverless cars, intelligent kitchens, health and fitness products, smart grid, smart city and intelligent train are booming. The development of Internet of things and big data will force data center operators to thoroughly rethink their infrastructure.
Today's data center is undergoing transformation from the application centered data center mode to the design and operation transformation to accommodate the influx of storage and analysis data, while meeting the needs of computing and storage resources. Because of this transformation, data centers will have to focus on scalability, connectivity and availability, because they are trying to provide the necessary infrastructure to deal with huge amounts of big data driven by the Internet of things.
Because big data and Internet of things are not organized and deployed for a long time, their demand for storage is unpredictable and fluctuating, which forces organizations to establish a very flexible data center environment, which must be adaptable. Enterprises usually store PB level or more data. The facilities must be scalable, and can instantly increase the configuration and capacity without closing other storage systems. The architecture and design of the new data center must be able to quickly improve the capacity provided on demand.
Big data and Internet of things are also opportunities for data center operators to reconsider the location of data centers. They will continue to invest in edge data centers, enabling content or Web applications to be more close to the end-users, so that they can access data quickly and safely. Distributed data center will ensure fast and safe access to big data, and 26 billion devices with network functions, which will increasingly become the pillar of global business and personal life.
The local data center will also reduce operating costs to prevent multiple networks from sending unstructured data and providing valuable analysis only to local users.
Many large-scale organizations run ultra large scale computing environments to adapt to large data. These systems can expand rapidly and efficiently to deal with large amounts of data from network services, databases, data analysis, high-performance computing and other applications.
The large increase in traffic makes the connection of the data center more prominent. Infrastructure developers have to make connections simple, the data center must greatly increase the bandwidth, and provide a reliable and high-performance network. To achieve this, the data center needs to provide a variety of cable connections and network operators. The neutrality of the operator provides flexibility and reduces the risk of connection failure.
It is also essential to provide high availability and low latency network connections, and to allow enterprises to keep in touch with their customers. Network latency is also a key consideration for data center infrastructure, in order to avoid data becoming obsolete, and to access real-time information needed by enterprises to make real-time decisions.
It is important for enterprises to recognize the exponential growth rate of IOT growth. In order to maintain high availability of new Internet of things services and big data, excessive supply will become unsustainable and costly. For many data centers, the data center infrastructure management (DCIM) solution will provide the missing links, make the Internet of things feasible in technology and economy, and provide an economical and efficient and scalable way to support its huge infrastructure. DCIM is the integration of the functions of the IT and the building facilities within the organization. The DCIM solution also provides the ability to collect data from multiple sensors and devices, while creating value through the efficiency and automation of the data center operations.
