Simon Wilson – Aruba – ‘Data Centres’ or ‘Centres of Data’?

In this weeks episode I am joined by Simon Wilson, CTO UK & IRE at Aruba. We take a look at data at the source to see how the evolving use of data is impacting the data centre industry.

We discuss how Simon started his career in networking via the apprenticeship route and how this offered the opportunity to develop a highly successful career in networking and data centres.

We then discuss how the industry has evolved, the impact of cloud, the changing demands of clients, the impact of AI and automation, and the new technology Aruba are developing that will enhance the data centre.

We also discuss the future of the working environment and the impact our new habits will have on the data centre and networking industry.

Simon provides a great insight to the data centre industry from the source of the data.
