Data center LANs are constantly evolving. Business pressures are forcing IT organizations to adopt new application delivery models. Edge computing models are transitioning from applications at the edge to virtualized desktops in the data center. The evolution of the data center from centralized servers to a private cloud is well underway and will be augmented by hybrid and public cloud computing services.
With data center traffic becoming less client-server and more server-server centric, new data center topologies are emerging. Yesterday’s heavily segmented data center is becoming less physically segmented and more virtually segmented. Virtual segmentation allows for the reduction of physical equipment, leading to both capital and operational expense (CAPEX/OPEX) savings.
Next generation switching and routing solutions address critical issues like virtualization, increased resiliency, the need for different network policies for different user groups, and special requirements of data center server farms. Proficio is highly experienced at refreshing data center infrastructure and can assist you plan and implement new networking solutions.
