Industry Perspectives: Arbor, Next Generation, Advanced Systems

Here's this week's Industry Perspectives columns on a variety of topics: mitigation DDOS attacks; automating workloads in the data center; and building green data centers.

The Industry Perspectives channel at Data Center Knowledge highlights thought leadership in the data center arena, providing industry professionals with the opportunity to share their insight and expertise. Here’s a recap of this week’s Perspectives:

  • Mitigating Intelligent DDoS Attacks - The size, frequency and complexity of DDoS attacks are increasing, says Rakesh Shah of Arbor Networks. And to make matters worse, traditional security products are inadequate in protecting against them. A multi-layer approach is needed to prevent intelligent DDoS issues.
  • Green with Envy: Creating a Green Data Center - Simon Taylor, of Next Generation Data, explains the critical considerations for implementing a green data center infrastructure.
  • Cloud Accelerates Need for Workload Automation - The automation of manual processes is becoming a larger focus of IT organizations as they look to provide users with more capabilities, Ben Rosenberg of Advanced System Concepts writes.
