PDx® Design Guide: Optimize Data Exchange

Remove Data Gravity barriers and unlock new capabilities with this guide to a decentralized infrastructure.

The digital economy is remaking both private and public enterprises across all industries, transforming how they create and deliver value. Data is a key driver of this digital economy. To succeed, enterprises need to:

Operate ubiquitously and on-demand
Augment workflows with real-time intelligence
Serve customers, partners, and employees across all channels, business functions, and points of business presence

Data Gravity forces a new architecture, one that inverts traffic flow and brings users, networks, and clouds to privately hosted enterprise data. This means that data needs to be hosted locally whether it is in the public or a private domain.

This guide is intended as a companion to the Optimize Data Exchange Blueprint found in the Pervasive Datacenter Architecture (PDx®) content library. It’s designed for business strategists, technology leaders, IT architects, and anyone responsible for the design and implementation of technology solutions.

Take advantage of all the opportunities this new economy offers with the capabilities, methodologies, step-by-step plans, and value impacts of the Optimize Data Exchange Design Guide.
