By David Linthicum
We all know that cloud computing provides business agility. For many enterprises, that means they have the ability to keep up with new and emerging markets. In the world of healthcare, cloud computing also provides the ability to keep up with ever-changing regulations.

Understanding Data Centers of the Future
Data centers are perched upon technology’s advanced battlements. They must be highly scalable and able to support ever-increasing bandwidth each year. Newer data centers look far differently than they did just a decade ago, and strategies for design and style continue to shift under the weight of big data, cloud computing, mobility and other technology trends.
IT professionals must be cross specialty virtuosos in environments of ever-increasing complexity.
