The data center ecosystem is evolving and experiencing growth at all levels with activity focused heavily in the cloud, at the edge of the network, and increasingly, in cloud resources at the edge. Those old IT closets aren’t extinct, but they’re rapidly becoming a relic of the early rush to the edge.

The pandemic has triggered countless changes across all walks of life, many of which seem certain to endure even when COVID-19 is a distant, unpleasant memory. Many millions of people around the world will continue working from home, booming online retail activity is here to stay, and video streaming has never been on firmer ground. Movie theaters and studios, on the other hand, are wrestling with more difficult lasting consequences.

The Vertiv™ Geist™ UPDU is ideal for hyperscale, colocation, enterprise, and edge applications as it introduces the flexibility necessary to deploy all levels of IT infrastructure from simple to complex with varying power requirements.

Each year at Vertiv, we bring together experts from across our organization to analyze the data center trends that could gain traction in the coming year. Vertiv's goal is to identify emerging trends early in their evolution but not so early that they aren’t actionable. While no attempt at predicting the future is 100% accurate, if you revisit our previous trends reports, you’ll see our experts got a lot more right than wrong.
