Summary

  1. User demands have evolved, what's being considered for the modern day workforce now that platforms are the primary method to stay connected?

  2. Cloud consumption has increased since the coronavirus began, how have end users expanded their data center capacity?

  3. Some companies are reconsidering the need for office space, what solutions do work from home platforms present for companies that choose to remain remote post-pandemic?

  4. As consumption increases, will platforms re-evaluate their current cloud storage methods, if so, how?

  5. As bandwidth expands and more users work from home, what changes are platforms making to meet the increase in demand?

The coronavirus pandemic has altered the way we interact with one another in both our personal and professional lives. Technology platforms have enabled a new means for face-to-face communication and have significantly expanded their reach. As a result, cloud consumption has multiplied and increased the amount of required data center usage.

In response to these demands, communication between data center operators and their tenants has also increased. The need to closely consider the daily practices of end users and how they may consume data both now and as we transition out of the pandemic is more important than ever.

Join Bisnow on April 30th to learn how these disruptive technologies are impacting the data center industry as we explore this new phase of business continuity through work from home platforms and more. Industry-leading participants to include Harry Moseley, CIO of Zoom Video Communications, Sohail Zakaria, Principal Azure Global Black Belt for Intelligent Cloud of Microsoft and Milind Wagle, CIO of Equinix.
