A data-driven future The data centre industry faces as many challenges as it does opportunities , from handling an ever-increasing amount of information , to a skills shortage , and the ever-present spectre of climate catastrophe . However , the world in which we live is one that is increasingly dependent on a strong data centre industry . Fredrik Forslund , VP of cloud and data centre erasure solutions at Blancco , is confident that “ although we start seeing more data , apps or users outside the data centre than inside , it will continue to , and should remain the primary location of your critical information and the core of any infrastructure . No matter if it ' s a private , hybrid or public cloud data centre , no data should ever leave a data centre under any circumstances .”
