It enables global distributed workflows at centres of data exchange to help organisations scale digital infrastructure and succeed in their hybrid multi-cloud strategy. "PlatformDIGITAL® is a first of its kind global data centre platform that enables customers to scale digital business by transforming their IT infrastructure so that they can operate ubiquitously and on-demand with real-time intelligence," says Vincent. Furthermore, the platform solves Data Gravity challenges by 'bringing users, things, applications, clouds, and networks to the data at centres of data exchange.' PlatformDIGITAL® provides a trusted foundation to solve business-critical challenges associated with global coverage, capacity, and connected data communities, with tailored infrastructure deployments and controls matched to business needs irrespective of data centre size, scale, location, configuration, or interconnections. It delivers a consistent experience, security, and resiliency that allows organisations to operate deployments as a seamless extension of any global infrastructure."By enabling our customers to adopt a consistent hybrid cloud infrastructure, which is fully integrated with PlatformDIGITAL®, we can enhance their data traffic flow and help them to overcome challenges such as data residency, Data Gravity, and local data processing," explains Vincent.For example, we have partnered with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to offer an enhanced hybrid cloud infrastructure experience with AWS Outposts. AWS has validated a select set of Digital Realty global facilities, to ensure redundant power and network connectivity, sufficient physical security, rack support, and cooling. This allows customers to deploy Outposts to the company's facilities faster and easier. Globally, PlatformDIGITAL® offers access to more than 40 AWS Direct Connect locations, including 16 in EMEA providing customers with secure, high-performance access to the desired AWS Region using either physical and virtual connectivity."Together, PlatformDIGITAL® and AWS provide a global, flexible hybrid cloud infrastructure that is easy for customers to set up, connect to a global community of partners, and future-proof for whatever business needs they may have," says Vincent. Moving forward, the company continues to work closely with customers to predict and meet their ever-growing demands "Our continued focus at Digital Realty is based on our Connected Data Community approach, which focuses on equipping enterprises with the tools they need to overcome Data Gravity challenges and shift to a data-centric architecture," concludes Vincent.
