10:30am-11:30am: Defying (Data) Gravity | What the Future of Accelerated Data Growth Holds for Enterprises

 

Dave McCrory, VP of Growth and Global Head of Insights and Analytics, Digital Realty

 

What do you get when you take the laws of physics and the laws of IT and intersect them with digital transformation? The answer is data gravity, the single biggest challenge facing all companies today and into the foreseeable future. Data gravity inhibits workflow performance, raises security concerns, and increases costs, all complicated by regulatory and legacy architecture constraints.

 

In this information-packed session – delivered by Dave McCrory, VP of Growth and Global Head of Insights and Analytics at Digital Realty – you’ll gain a deep understanding of the intensity and implications of accelerated data growth and increasing data gravity on global enterprises.
You’ll receive actionable quantitative insights and CAGR forecasts for more than 50 metros worldwide and seven industries that will help unlock the dynamics of data gravity for enterprises, as well as a blueprint for addressing infrastructure constraints. You’ll also learn our patent-pending formula for measuring data gravity, a methodology based on thousands of attributes of Global 2000 enterprises.

 

What are some of the aspects and approaches to consider in envisioning solutions in this changed landscape of hybrid business/infrastructure and system environments?”

For example, technologies such Big Data, mobile and cloud computing are all highly disruptive technologies that require a fine balance between their business and technical aspects as the organization moves forward.

 

In this session, attendees will learn how to they need to reinvent and/or refine their EA to embrace a digital transformation.
