Remote solutions in the new normal, In-depth look into Meraki health, next-generation WIFI, and camera operations and management re-imagined.

Edge computing is necessary to address shortcomings in remote applications like cloud-based and large centralized data centers with respect to performance and regulatory requirements. In short, this hyperscale-only computing model can’t always meet the required demands in terms of response time that critical applications require. Companies that face government regulations regarding where data is stored may also find cloud computing can’t deliver the sort of local storage they need.

The trend toward digitization to improve efficiency and business performance is fueling demand for applications that require peak performance. Some of these include just-in-time information needs, management of remote tasking such as new work-from-home implementations, and self-monitoring and management Internet of Things (IoT) applications. IoT applications often require lots of bandwidth, low latency, and reliable performance while meeting regulatory and compliance mandates, making them classic candidates for the edge.

?

All of these require solutions that are flexible enough to meet the needs of a broad variety of users and environments with varying levels of professional IT intervention, both on-site and remote. Schneider Electric’s EcoStruxure Data Center Solutions families provide answer to the most pressing needs of these users, deployable with reliability and speed sufficient to position our customers to take on all challenges for information needs within their organizations.

Virtualization dramatically advanced data center architectures at the turn of the century. Cloud did the same in the teens. Intelligent Infrastructure is the trend to watch in the 20s, but what is it?

Like the trends before it, Intelligent Infrastructure is a category, a technology with differentiated capabilities, and an architecture for new business agility in IT. Expert human capital remains scarce while demands on infrastructure accelerate, so speeds and feeds alone are no longer a viable solution. What is needed is a dramatic advancement in native machine learning and automation so that the infrastructure itself can help overcome this resource gap. Imagine what new value IT experts could deliver if up to 95% of their administrative tasks were eliminated. Join Hank Kalinowski, Tintri – Technologist, as he bring us up to speed on this exciting new technology category.
