Equinix's 7 Bold Predictions for the Connected Enterprise in 2017Equinix
Read details of each prediction from the official Equinix blog: http://eqix.it/2hn1bdh
We can’t predict the future of the entire IT industry, but we sit at an unusually good vantage point at Equinix to make an educated, data-driven forecast about what we see coming. That’s because we have the capability to look at what’s trending with more than 8,000 customers across 21 markets within ecosystems that sit at the center of cloud, IoT and analytics growth. And the patterns we are seeing show a massive digital transformation under way.
Digital has disrupted business as usual, and new revenue models and ways of competing are taking hold. To successfully make the shift to digital business, organizations are realizing they need transform IT by “flipping” their architectures from siloed and fixed to integrated and dynamic. This shift requires an interconnection-first strategy that enables enterprises and service providers to directly and securely connect their partners, customers and end users to anything, anywhere, on any device. Digital businesses simply can’t compete without an integrated and dynamic strategy to make that happen.
As things change quickly, we're taking advantage of our special perspective at the center of it all to predict what you can expect in “7 Bold Predictions for the Connected Enterprise.” We’ll be exploring these predictions in more detail in the coming days, but these previews will get us started.

The advent of social media has revolutionized communication, transforming the way people connect, share, and interact globally. At the forefront of this digital revolution are visionary entrepreneurs who recognized the potential of the internet to foster social connections and create communities. This essay explores the founders of some of the most influential social media platforms, their journeys, and the lasting impact they have made on society.
Mark Zuckerberg, along with his college roommates Eduardo Saverin, Andrew McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz, and Chris Hughes, founded Facebook in 2004. Initially created as a social networking site for Harvard University students, Facebook rapidly expanded to other universities and eventually to the general public. Zuckerberg's vision was to create an online directory that connected people through their real-life social networks.
Twitter, founded in 2006 by Jack Dorsey, Biz Stone, and Evan Williams, brought a new dimension to social media with its microblogging platform. Dorsey envisioned a service that allowed users to share short, real-time updates, limited to 140 characters (now 280). This concise format encouraged rapid sharing of information and fostered a culture of brevity and immediacy.
Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger co-founded Instagram in 2010, focusing on photo and video sharing. Systrom, who studied photography, wanted to create an app that made mobile photos look professional. The app's unique filters and easy-to-use interface quickly gained popularity, amassing over a million users within two months of its launch.
Instagram's emphasis on visual content has had a significant cultural impact. It has popularized the concept of influencers, giving rise to a new industry where individuals can monetize their popularity and reach. The platform has also revolutionized digital marketing, enabling brands to connect with consumers in more authentic and engaging ways. Acquired by Facebook in 2012, Instagram continues to be a dominant force in social media, shaping trends and cultural norms.
Reid Hoffman founded LinkedIn in 2002 with the goal of creating a professional networking platform. Unlike other social media sites focused on personal connections, LinkedIn was designed to connect professionals, facilitate job searches, and foster business relationships. The platform allows users to create professional profiles, network with colleagues, and share industry insights.
LinkedIn has become an indispensable tool for job seekers, recruiters, and businesses. It has transformed the job market by making it easier to find and connect with potential employers and employees. LinkedIn's influence extends beyond job searches; it has become a hub for professional development, thought leadership, and industry news. Hoffman's vision has significantly impacted how professionals manage their careers and build their networks.

Know your traffic sources. As the fastest driver of IP growth,
it’s no secret that mobile data traffic is coming from a
multitude of directions. The new generation of mobile users is
more demanding than ever, sharing a massive amount of
video and photos and running bandwidth-intensive apps.
Apps for customers. Apps for employees. Apps for everyone
and everything. And now that it’s officially upon us, the
Internet of Everything (IoE).

4. How to Make Sure You’re Prepared.
Get ready for the IoE. There’s a new mobile phenomenon emerging, and it’s already causing quite a stir: the
Internet of Everything. Soon, everything that can be connected will be: cars will talk to gas pumps, shirts will talk to
washing machines, healthcare monitors will link to social networks.
Go with the flow. Traffic isn’t going anywhere but up. The challenge for businesses will be to make sure their
infrastructure can support both the growth of traffic and the need for global reach. To remain competitive,
enterprises will need to implement a progressive IT strategy that enables employees and customers to work and
consume data efficiently from anywhere.
By 2017, mobile data traffic is predicted to
grow 13-fold globally

5. How to Make Sure You’re Prepared.
Localize the data center. Though great in theory, a mobile-
centric world will put more pressure than ever on IT
infrastructure. Taking advantage of new markets, plus the
increasing demands of current ones, will require a more
distributed and powerfully architected network. One that is
capable of both reaching and satisfying your mobile users—
anywhere, at any time, and at any level of digital demand.
The key is simple geography. The closer your network is to
your users, the better application performance it will deliver.
Localizing traffic is far more scalable than keeping your
equipment in locations that are nowhere near either the
content being served, or the users trying to access it. And
you get access to markets all over the world.

6. How to Meet—and Exceed—Ever-growing Expectations.
Know your traffic sources. Today’s digital consumers expect the maximum quality and experience, in the
minimum amount of time. Even a relatively small latency in the experience can send them searching
elsewhere. To add to the pressure, the extended time consumers are engaging with their brand means
there’s a greater opportunity for delivering a poor experience somewhere along the line—and consumers
aren’t any more forgiving.
As Brand-Consumer Interactions Increase, So Does Pressure to Perform.
When you think about the explosion of apps like Instagram, Facebook and Yelp, as well as subscription-based
services, such as Spotify, Dropbox and Netflix, it’s easy to imagine how selling “services” has become one of
the world’s fastest-growing markets. The beauty of this sort of digital consumption is that consumers and
brands can interact with one another more directly. But the quality of these interactions must be stellar or the
relationships will likely be short-lived. With so many variables to accommodate, those expectations create a
lot of pressure.

7. How to Meet—and Exceed—Ever-growing
Expectations.
Stay ahead of those expectations. Strive to be an early
adopter of mini-trends that are beginning to surface. Brands
are benefiting from perks like product customization at time
of manufacture, which delivers customized goods and
experiences in real time. Plan ahead, as these types of
trends put new pressures on real-time supply chain
performance. Every link in that chain must be architecturally
sound to meet demand and customer expectation. See the
following pages for examples with PayPal and Jamba Juice,
as well as Redbox.

8. PayPal’s “Order-Ahead Pickup” at Jamba Juice.
PayPal and Jamba Juice created a mobile app that allows
customers to make an order that will be ready for pickup at a
specified time. The steps below need to be executed flawlessly
to deliver a satisfying on-demand experience.
Both PayPal and Jamba Juice have a shared database
that identifies a PayPal user and serves up the closest
Jamba Juice location in real time.
Jamba Juice has another database that recognizes the
user (from previous purchases) and serves up real-time
specials, coupons, even flavors, that it thinks the user
might like.
Once the customer makes the payment, PayPal verifies
and obtains the payment from the bank.
PayPal sends the funds into the Jamba Juice POS
system.
The POS system displays the customer’s Facebook
picture, order history, current order and customized
coupons.
If just one of these links were to fail, or even slow down a
few seconds, the entire transaction could fail.

9. Strengthen at the core. Whether it’s being able to get a
product customized and delivered in real time, or just
delivering consistent experiences between the brand and the
consumer, it all starts at the center of the IT infrastructure: the
data center. As in the PayPal-Jamba Juice and Redbox
examples, the key to success is a distributed architecture.
Your network should be designed so that it’s as close as
possible to each link in the supply chain—especially your
end-users—to ensure the best consumer experience.

10. It’s Time to Give the Cloud
More Clout.
Cloud customers are beginning to make the cloud a vital
part of their IT strategy, rather than for select cases.
They’re also becoming savvier, and in turn, more
demanding—expecting to interact, work and play
whenever, wherever and however they choose. As we
head toward worldwide cloud adoption,
it’s estimated that by 2017, the percentage of workloads
migrating to the cloud will increase by 500 percent.

A More Evolved Cloud Needs a More Evolved Strategy.
Choose hybrid. Gartner suggests that enterprises design private cloud services with a hybrid future in mind
and make sure future integration and interoperability are possible.2 With a healthy mix of user control and
flexibility, it’s no wonder hybrid clouds are fast becoming the IT infrastructure model of choice and are
expected to reach new adoption heights in 2014. But not just any hybrid cloud will do. The ones that offer
enterprise-grade security and direct access to key network providers give your applications that boost in
performance.
To thrive in tomorrow's IT environment, enterprises need
to see the cloud as king, and begin aligning their cloud
strategy accordingly while maintaining the security of the
private cloud.

11. A More Evolved Cloud Needs a More Evolved Strategy.
Leverage interconnection opportunities. To take advantage of the huge community of security, storage and
cloud providers available in the cloud ecosystem, position your infrastructure in neutral data centers where
you have the most choice among providers. Connecting directly with those services will give you the flexibility
you need to adapt, grow and manage your infrastructure in the hybrid environment.
Start with a distributed data center. As cloud services continue to grow, causing the demands on IT
infrastructure to become more complex, you’ll need the support of a more capable data center with a more
selective and intentional cloud strategy. The model of distributed data centers allows you to tap into cloud
services and build a cloud strategy with the guidance and infrastructure you need to form the ultimate hybrid
cloud with the highest performance imaginable. Data centers like these are hyperconnected, housing robust
and thriving ecosystems that give you unprecedented access to your users, customers, partners, providers
and target markets.

13. The Rise of the Millennials and the Digital Economy.
Millennials are entering the customer base in droves. At 79 million strong, they’ve surpassed baby boomers to become
the largest generation in U.S. history. They’re a new type of consumer: They embrace the digital age. And now, they’re
driving it, as concepts like the Internet of Everything (IoE)—which is bringing people, process and data together—
become a reality.
The millennials’ comfort with purchasing non-physical products, or services that are all or almost entirely digital, is one
of the biggest factors stimulating hyperdigitization, the economic shift toward virtual goods and services. And as the
sheer volume of IP traffic and data increases, so does the need for an infrastructure that can keep up today and in the
future.
By 2020, roughly a quarter of the GDP will be
generated by the force of digital activity.

14. Are You Ready for the Data Deluge?
Prepare to store more metadata. Digital purchasing creates more opportunity to
stimulate revenue and loyalty among customers through data collection,
customization and targeting. With data storage comes security concerns, but it’s
possible to place physical security appliances at interconnections among
databases, application servers and Web servers, establishing a level of security
comparable to a private network.
Embrace the Internet of Everything. Don’t forget that wherever the Internet can
expand, it will, and it’s probably already on its way. The same goes for virtual
purchasing and the need to capture relevant data about consumption patterns
and preferences.
Promote the data center to center stage. In a growing digital economy, IP traffic,
the number of parties involved throughout the transaction process, and the
experience demand are expanding. There’s a need for a fundamental change in
network architecture—one that can meet data demands and scale over time.
The ability to do so hinges on having a strategic data center in place. It should
offer the right balance of providers for bandwidth requirements and overall
digital performance to achieve the best user experience.

15. Rising Up to a Flatter World.
As our world becomes “flatter,” there will be
an increased demand from users everywhere
to achieve the maximum digital experience.
Workforces traveling abroad will expect
optimal performance from critical internal
applications, no matter where they’re located.
It’s because of these inevitable demands that
many of today’s enterprises are either
already globalizing or are planning to do so.
Not to mention the fact that once-untapped
markets will be ripe for business. For an
enterprise with a true global reach, potential
opportunities for growth will be limitless.
Strategize Before You Globalize.
Understand local regulations. When it comes to government-
business relations and data, the rules not only vary, they can
be constantly changing. How do you stay on top of it all as
you globalize? Seek out network and cloud providers, as well
as data centers, with global reach and experience in the
countries that you operate in today and plan to expand to in
the future.
Review regional growth. Studying current global growth
trends and growth forecasts is critical if globalization is your
plan.

racks and cages. It’s the foundation from which connectivity, bandwidth, latency and security stem—and as
such, must be every bit as scalable, localized, global and strategic as the rest of your IT strategy. Do that, and
the rest will fall into place.
