Infrastructure Services
The Western European datacenter life-cycle services market is forecast to reach a value of $66.1 billion by the end of 2021. Hosting infrastructure services (HIS) are expected to remain the chief catalyst of growth.
Digital transformation (DX) continues to drive datacenter modernization, consolidation, and expansion. Cloud will remain the foundational technology, while interest in the Internet of Things (IoT), mobility, and cognitive solutions is expected to rise. The shift to hybrid IT and multicloud datacenters will boost end-user spending in the HIS market. Strategic infrastructure transformation will benefit IT consultants and systems integrators.
Not Everything Is Outsourced
IT monitoring, a relatively basic service, is outsourced by 70.7% of all companies. This shows that, despite the availability of a growing number of IT monitoring tools, outsourcing this service allows companies to devote internal resources to other tasks.
The other top category is managed cloud services, also outsourced by 70.7% of respondents. This, of course, goes hand in hand with the growing popularity of cloud among companies in Western Europe, especially in the UK and Benelux. It also confirms IDC's prediction that the share of managed cloud services in the global outsourcing market would increase.

Play with Linux and Python on the Networking Devices, 8 May, 9:00 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time: Register Here
What app would you develop if you could run it directly on a router or a switch? What full-stack system would you want to deploy and run directly on a router or a switch if they could run a full Linux operating system? Now that your imagination is running wild, join this session to learn how on a network infrastructure you can now run your Python code directly from the IOS CLI. You will also learn how to spin up a full Linux container on a router with either your favorite network performance-monitoring tool or with a chat-bot app that lets you manage the network from a messenger app on your phone.
If you register, you will get access to the recording.

Before, During, and After a Security Attack, 17 April, 9:00 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time: Register Here
Have you ever wondered what happens before a bad actor attacks a network? The hope is that their attempt to infiltrate the infrastructure will be eliminated by the layers of security protection built into the network. However, sometimes the attackers exploit an unknown, so-called, 0-day vulnerability to get inside. Do not panic – even during the attack, we can collect valuable information and learn how the attack is being-executed and if or where it is spreading.
Moreover, based on the collected information, we know where we should concentrate our cleaning efforts after the attack has been discovered and eliminated. Join this session to learn more about threat protection, and how simple scripts with programmability and automation can turn your response time to an attack from minutes to seconds.
If you register, you will get access to the recording.
