Corporate-run data centres are in decline and the need for data centres continues to rise in Canada. There has been a shift in the way that IT is delivered – cloud technology has made “compute and store” so much more efficient, but the amount and types of data that need to be stored continue to grow and diversify, adding stress to even the best data centres.
