service today?<\/strong> <strong>Businesses want to keep pace with evolving technology.<\/strong> In fact, they should be aiming even higher \u2013 to get to the next level before anyone else.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Cloud computing provides innumerable advantages to businesses and enterprises. <\/strong>The most important of these are:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Increasing business agility<\/li>\n<li>Changing business resource infrastructure from on-premises to on-consumption<\/li>\n<li>Replacing CapEx by OpEx and also reducing

Why? The stats currently say that more and more areas are now becoming urbanized. In fact, the urban population has already exceeded that of the rural areas in the US.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A higher urban population means more connected devices.<strong> According to a report, we should expect <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/community.arm.com\/groups\/internet-of-things\/blog\/2015\/03\/10\/the-next-gen-data-center--a-tale-of-two-clouds\"><strong>a total of 40 billion connected devices by 2020<\/strong><\/a><strong>.<\/strong> On top of that, total data volume will reach as high as 40 zettabytes!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Internet of Things, or rather the Internet of Everything, has a lot bigger role to play in it than the change in population pattern. <strong>In the very near future, every single object around us will be connected to the internet.<\/strong> They will all be sending bulk real time data. <strong>Read More<\/strong>:\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.esds.co.in\/blog\/cloud-environment-for-internet-of-things-a-technology-revolution\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cloud Environment for Internet of Things \u2013 A Technology Revolution?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Obviously, the existing cloud computing infrastructure can\u2019t cope up with this high demand. What we need is a new and improved infrastructure. We need to have an upgraded version of the existing data center.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s take a look what the next generation data centers are going to look like.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin-top: 0in;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Disaggregated_Structure\"><\/span>Disaggregated Structure<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>As the Internet of Things is gaining importance, businesses are shifting towards disaggregated structures.<\/strong> Cloud data centers are also facing a move in this direction.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you look at the big picture, you\u2019ll observe a pattern here. This is how technology evolves. It starts out small and localized, controlled by a single entity. Then, gradually it evolves as it becomes available to the public.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin-top: 0in;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Optimum_Operating_Efficiency\"><\/span>Optimum Operating Efficiency<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Needless to say, it\u2019s simply insufficient to have a large, bulky storage center. The data centers of the future need to be efficient. They need to be intelligent enough to take in astronomical amounts of data and clean it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>New data centers must be able to assign a workload where it\u2019s most suited. <\/strong>They need to maximize cloud performance by shifting loads and delivering them near premises.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin-top: 0in;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Compact_Size\"><\/span>Compact Size<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To handle huge amounts of data, data centers will tend to become bulky. They\u2019ll consume more space than they should.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Moreover, with a rising urban population, there is simply no space to install mammoth data centers. <strong>So, cloud companies need to look at the latest technologies and make their data center compact.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin-top: 0in;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Low_Power_Consumption\"><\/span>Low Power Consumption<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Future increases in data will lead to energy deficiencies. <strong>So, next-gen data centers need to be efficient in terms of their power consumption. <\/strong>They should be taking up as little power as possible.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin-top: 0in;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Green_Data_Centers\"><\/span>Green Data Centers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Practically, every technology is moving towards becoming green. Data centers are no exception. <strong>To keep our world safe and intact, data centers should be using green technologies.<\/strong> They should be consuming low power. Even then, the power should be obtained from green sources.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>With IoT and IaaS in the house, next-gen data centers are overdue.<\/strong> More devices getting connected are creating problems for the clouds.
