In addition, infrastructure refreshes introduce complexity, from defining architecture and managing upgrades in technology to pushing them out to thousands of devices and endpoints across multiple locations. And, in an always-on world, downtime isn’t an option, as time is money. But neither is the status quo, as the demands of consumers, data, and security compel businesses toward infrastructure refreshes for more resilient networks.
