Sys-Con Media brought this topic to our attention in their article, “From Legacy to the Cloud: Next Generation Datacenters.” This article was the introduction to a five-part series focusing on identifying the problem and sharing proven strategies for transforming legacy datacenters and infrastructure to next generation datacenters that operate in a cloud computing like model for enterprise IT.
