The cloud seems to be the ultimate destination for today’s data center. It can be used to support peaking workloads and for disaster recovery. The challenge is how to get data to the cloud so it can be leveraged for these tasks. Data centers are also looking to improve their internal capabilities by purchasing rapidly adopting new technology, but they need to do that safely. Finally the data center has to deal with the age old problem of disaster recovery and in fact it needs to meet tighter and tighter recovery windows. Join my colleague Curtis Preston and Zerto’s Jennifer Gill as they discuss how to tackle these challenges in this ChalkTalk Video.
