The Future for Infrastructure is being Invisible
“The 15 Key Trends”
1 Public cloud will accelerate
2 Open Source will be more prevalent
3 Containers will be a standard platform
4 Security will remain a key requirement
5 Hybrid will be the dominant cloud model
6 Automation to ensure Infra can speed up
9 Microsegmentation to provide better security
7 DevOps and Continuous Integration will be King
8 Physical Server performance will further increase
10 Open Compute will disrupt today’s Hardware vendors
11 Infrastructure will move more into an Utility & Lego based Model
12 Infrastructure Orchestration will be key to respond to Utility demand
13 Microservices will become the new way of constructing most applications
14 Software-Anything will accelerate the move to software only infrastructure
15 IoT will drive the need of more data store and reporting / analytical capabilities
