Efficiently and expeditiously,
data centers are undergoing a rapid change that is helping almost all the business sectors to make best out of their resources. In this line, new technologies such as flash storage, IPv6, Solid State Drives, Virtualization and
cloud powered hosting solutions are major ones to count upon. Earlier, data centers were big, wherein thousands of servers are aligned to meet diversified business objectives. However, with the emergence of virtualization technology, these data centers have become converged and consolidated. In addition to this, this technology has helped in effective resource utilization, and, thereby, cutting back extra costs invested on spare servers. Virtualization is not only limited to servers, it also includes network and other IT resources. Moving ahead, cloud powered data centers have become more responsive with extensive resource capabilities enabling end-users to quickly provision compute power (bandwidth, memory, servers,
storage, CPU, etc.) in an exchange of nominal subscription fee.
Seemingly, these emerging technologies are reshaping the way data centers are managed, maintained, and executed. Such cutting-edge technologies not only helps in reducing total cost of ownership, boosts data
