Over the past five years, hyperscale computing has undergone a tremendous transformation that has firmly validated its position as the backbone of our digital world. In this second eBook in the Hyperscale Rising series, we provide readers with an in-depth look at the massive growth and evolution of the hyperscale industry during this relatively short but hugely impactful timeframe.
The pages ahead will highlight the key drivers for the explosive investments made by hyperscalers in infrastructure such as data centers, servers, and connectivity. We will also explore how major cultural shifts toward streaming media, social networking, and mobile apps have driven unprecedented demand on compute, and how COVID-19 has further accelerated adoption of cloud-based solutions relying on hyperscale providers.
Ultimately, we want to emphasize why understanding the hyperscale landscape is crucial for businesses and technology leaders looking to prepare for the future. The companies that harness hyperscale capabilities effectively today will have a competitive advantage in navigating the digital transformations ahead, across all industries.
