The Data Center and Cloud Balance: New Considerations

 A world powered by digital infrastructure requires new considerations to ensure rapid deployments and optimize application delivery. A DCF special report courtesy of Panduit looks at the new cloud and data center balance demanded by the growth of digital infrastructure.

In a world consumed by digital infrastructure, new considerations must be taken to ensure rapid deployments, optimized application delivery, and streamlined operational support.  There are more users, complex applications, and data points accessing your infrastructure than ever before. New demands require modern organizations and cloud leaders to rethink their data center environment and delivery model to leverage the cloud effectively. In a world of constant connectivity. Performance, efficiency, latency, and security (physical and logical) take center stage as leaders make decisions around their digital infrastructure.

2020 was a defining year for all of us. New IT computing scenarios are driving growth in cloud and data center services. These include more connected devices, broader use-cases around mobility, and a greater reliance on data center reliability. These new IT solutions are being deployed by migrating traditional IT services to cloud services and data center alternatives.

However, not all data centers are created equal, and not all data center components can support your requirements. This special report will dive into a new balance between the cloud and the modern data center. We’ll discuss new requirements around performance, latency management, supply chain requirements, and, very importantly, creating a new level of sustainability.

Demystifying Network Slicing

Image
Network slicing represents a paradigm shift in how we think about networks and their management. At its core, network slicing involves the creation of multiple virtual networks on the same physical network infrastructure. These virtual networks can be tailored to meet the diverse requirements of different types of services, applications, or users. In this blog post, we will delve into the intricacies of network slicing, unpacking its components, benefits, and operational dynamics. ## Understanding Network Slicing Network slicing is a transformative technology that enables the division of a single physical network into multiple virtual networks, each designed to serve a specific purpose or service type with distinct performance characteristics. This segmentation allows for more efficient resource use and enables a tailored approach to network management. ### The Composition of a Network Slice A network slice is a complex entity composed of both physical and virtual network resources. It
