Initially, the focus was solely on data center rack infrastructure, with only size and cost considered during deployment. However, the introduction of high-density applications by various end-users, such as online banking, IT and telecommunications, media, and entertainment, creates opportunities for increased usage of full racks of data centers.
E-commerce companies use data stored in their data centers in highly effective ways, such as improving their machine-learning capabilities to assist customers.
