When thinking about edge computing, enterprises must strongly consider several key factors. In this video, Seagate’s Jeff Nygaard and BS Teh share the stage with IDC’s Dave Reinsel to discuss the value of data and the need for a robust data infrastructure—from a data storage perspective.
"Today, more than 5 billion consumers interact with data every day—by 2025, that number will be 6 billion, or 75% of the world's population. In 2025, each connected person will have at least one data interaction every 18 seconds. Many of these interactions are because of the billions of IoT devices connected across the globe, which are expected to create over 90ZB of data in 2025."
