The world is witnessing massive growth in data centre investments as organisations strive to build environments that have the capacity necessary to handle modern requirements.
At the same time, global Internet traffic has exploded, with Huawei’s Global Industry Vision predicting that the amount of data produced annually will reach 180 ZB in 2025. Most of that traffic passes through a data centre at some point.
Add to this the emerging need to feed large volumes of data to ever-hungry AI based systems, and the importance of the underlying data centre and networking architecture become clear. Indeed, Huawei’s Global Industry Vision suggests 97% of large enterprises intend to use AI by 2025, and it will form a primary component of their digitalisation strategies.
