Data center is the heart of an organization, pumping operational capabilities to help the organization achieve its desired goals. And like any technology that witnesses a defining moment in its journey through different stages, data centers are undergoing transformation in their lifecycle.

From improving productivity, strengthening business processes to empowering field force and blurring the physical boundaries of workplace, Indian enterprises are demonstrating how mobility can be used to make organizations future ready.

In June 2014, the InformationWeek editorial team sent out invitations to IT Heads of user companies, system integrators, and PR agencies to nominate their clients for the EDGE awards. We received a phenomenal response to our call for entries. In totality, we received more than 210 nominations from different companies across the country. In the first phase, redundant and incomplete entries were removed from the list. Based on an internal assessment framework that focused broadly on the parameters of innovation, cost savings, scale and efficiency, this list was subsequently narrowed down to top 167 projects.

With many enterprises preferring iPads and tablets to desktops,
enterprise software too has to be designed to incorporate and recognize
capabilities such as ‘touch’ that are an integral part of mobile phones
or tablets. Enterprise app majors such as SAP, Infor and Oracle have
recognized this trend, and are now focusing their efforts on creating user
friendly interfaces that are desirable to use.

The year 2013 saw many prominent security practitioners step down from active roles to pursue other opportunities within the information security domain.

The emergence of multiple data streams owing to SoCloMo,
Big Data analytics and Internet of Things, coupled with the
strong business need to respond dynamically to the changing
market scenario is making it absolutely essential for the CIOs
to revamp their traditional storage infrastructure.
We look at some of the emerging storage technology trends,
which would play a major role in enabling the CIOs to tackle
this imminent data deluge challenge
