You’ve heard a lot about the Internet of Things and how mountains of data will soon overwhelm your servers, networks, and data centers. But have you head how the Industrial Internet of Things could change the landscape? Shay Demmons, EVP and General Manager of the RunSmart software division at BASELAYER, explains the ins and outs of this new development.
Insights: Internet of Things
The Internet of Things will create millions of connected devices, generating data from homes, cars and the vast reaches of industrial infrastructure. Data will be everywhere, and many of the new digital conversations will involve machines talking to other machines. It will have major implications for the data center industry, requiring infrastructure in locations that have not traditionally been business markets for data centers. These technologies will be rolled out over many years, as users gradually wrap their arms around the rapidly-growing universe of protocols, applications and use cases.

Managing the Data Centers of the Future
The best-prepared companies not only connect to the latest and greatest technologies, but they also connect back to legacy solutions. BASELAYER’s Shay Demmons shares how to utilize legacy technology, as well as new tech, while planning for the data centers of the future.
Cost of Denial of Service Attacks
This study reports denial of service attacks (DoS) against data centers has grown from 2% in 2010 to 22% in 2016.. DoS attacks occur when a criminal prevents legitimate users from accessing information or services.

Futurist: New Tech Will Drive Enormous Demand for Data Centers
The data center’s role in the economy will be transformed by technologies like AI, virtual reality, voice assistants, autonomous vehicles and robots, according to futurist Steve Brown.
IT Connectivity From the Data Center to the Cloud
IT connectivity has become more important as bandwidth-intensive applications have moved to the cloud. There are reliability and security issues associated with basic internet connections. To learn more about IT connectiviity and the cloud in the data center download this white paper.
Cost to Support Compute Capacity
Ponemon Institute and Vertiv are pleased to present the results of an original benchmark study to determine average costs to support 1 kW of compute capacity in today’s data centers. The purpose of this study is to analyze the major cost components in supporting compute capacity so that organizations can more effectively identify opportunities to reduce costs and make informed decisions about future capacity.
