Many firms are dealing with the explosion of data, applications and new technology that are stretching IT infrastructure to its limits. According to recent reports, analysts expect to see continued growth in data center consolidation as data-centric companies seek efficiencies while mega-data centers continue to offer benefits of scale.

Data centers can enable customers to 'right-size' their environment, deliver enterprise-class DR solutions and provide trusted advisers with new IT solutions. Importantly, they can also support IT consolidation efforts.

Complementary actions, such as upgrading equipment and retrofitting sites, are top priorities for enterprise efficiency. Additionally, greater coordination and deployment of resources can include aligning facilities and IT teams' processes.

CyrusOne can support enterprise consolidation by enabling:
• Scaling of existing footprints to support increasingly dense IT deployments
• Building new data centers to support future growth
• Connecting several data centers on one platform for disaster recovery needs.
