| | | May 2023 | | | IDC: Enabling modern infrastructure across on-premises and cloud
Enterprises are increasingly adopting hybrid cloud, public cloud, and multicloud platforms to speed time to market while keeping their applications secure as they progress toward digital transformation (DX). While public cloud platforms and modern application architectures provide scale and agility, they are not without challenges.
Some enterprises lack the skill set and maturity to operate cloud-based and cloud-native platforms. Enterprises also find managing heterogeneous environments difficult. Operating system (OS) environments, being the foundation for digital transformation, can help mitigate these challenges by providing a common, standard platform.
IDC's research shows that Linux-based operating systems are most frequently used in public cloud environments but have continued to gain foothold over the past several years in on-premises and edge spaces. A commercial Linux distribution can help enterprises overcome many of the challenges of open source operating systems.
This paper discusses how operating systems provide the foundation for enterprise digital transformation and IDC's recommendations for selecting the right commercial operating system for IT buyers.

Ignition! Behind the scenes of Lawrence Livermore Lab’s fusion energy breakthrough December 5, 2022 is the day of the first verified fusion energy success. Achieved by researchers at the National Ignition Facility (NIF) at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, the results were a vital step toward harnessing fusion energy—the natural process that enlivens stars—to power human society.
Phil Adams is the chief technology officer at NIF. His team manages the infrastructure that runs the laser control system and captures the resulting data for analysis. The team deals in precious data and imagine if on December 5 scientists ran their fusion experiment—but the databases failed to capture the result.
Find out why reliability and uptime are so important in managing the world’s most complex machines in pursuit of nuclear fusion. |
