Emerging demands on IT infrastructure
Increasing security and compliance demands are prompting organisations to invest more in digital infrastructure.
Our new Vision for Digital Infrastructure in 2030 Report, surveyed 250 IT decision-makers across various UK industries and the third chapter explores emerging demands on digital infrastructure.
We found that:
- Three in ten IT decision-makers (30%) will still be concerned about maintaining security and compliance in 2030
- More and more organisations are turning to colocation to strengthen their security and compliance
- 33% of respondents from 2020 survey said security and compliance was the key driver behind their decision to collocate
- In 2023, that number has increased by twenty-one percentage points to 54%.
Gain insights into how to identify and navigate the emerging demands on digital infrastructure, (including the need to achieve enhanced security and compliance), together with the reasons why many organisations see value in implementing colocation.
IT Infrastructure Vision for 2030
From the explosion of IoT devices to the latest advances in AI, technology is rapidly accelerating, the full 2030 report covers the scale and speed with which IT services are delivered, and reshaping the digital economy as we know it.
Data centres lie at the heart of this shift, supporting organisations on their digitalisation journey, and ensuring the reliability, connectivity, sustainability and efficiency of business operations. But what will the future bring – in 2030 and beyond? In addition to evaluating emerging demands on IT infrastructure, the report explores four other key areas which are shaping tomorrow, including:
- Chapter 1: Digital infrastructure connectivity challenges and requirements
- Chapter 2: Your guide to addressing sustainability in digital infrastructure
- Chapter 4: Ensuring the right skills and people exist in your digital infrastructure
- Chapter 5: Understanding the infrastructure challenges and investments as you navigate the next decade (coming 12 December 2023)
