Keys to Building a Data Driven Enterprise

The right infrastructure and technology provider are essential for organizations seeking to become truly data driven. This discussion with Ashish Nadkarni, group vice president at IDC, focuses on what IT leaders need to consider when selecting an infrastructure provider.

Nadkarni highlights the importance of choosing a provider that can deliver:

• Security: Infrastructure that protects the organization's data and applications from threats

• Sustainability: Efficient and eco-friendly technologies that reduce energy consumption and costs

• Agility: Flexible and scalable infrastructure that can quickly adapt to changing needs

• Future readiness: A roadmap focused on emerging technologies that will power the business in the future

IT leaders must evaluate potential providers based on their ability to deliver an infrastructure that enables the goals of security, sustainability, agility and future readiness to truly unleash the potential of a data driven enterprise.
