How will explosive growth of the Internet of Things impact future data centers?

The Internet of Things is not only the explosive growth of sensors.

The future of the Internet of Things (IOT) can be inferred from how storage technologies evolve. One thing is for sure: the generation of data and data traffic will increase dramatically.

IOT data is considered unstructured, but there are also many data flows in reality, each with its own structure. Many of the stored data will only be used once and then be discarded or archived.

The problem with complicating the entire incident is that the use of data is near real-time. For example, when you shop, the location of your store can be located. The timeliness of personalized advertising is often only 1 to 2 seconds.

Most IoT data is "digested" when it enters the data center (for example, facial recognition is converted into a storage location). The raw data is stored for a period of time, depending on what it will do, and it may eventually be transferred to disk storage. The digested product is a new, more valuable data stream. This data stream, along with other data, is sent to a powerful analytics engine that uses big data technology for reasoning.

The big data engine is usually an in-memory database engine with a very large dynamic random access memory (RAM), several processor cores, and a PCI-E interface solid state drive (SSD). Data is directly imported into memory or saved via SSD. GPUs, with the help of Hadoop or other distributed storage architectures, can implement parallel processing such as data search with great speed. The used data is transferred to SSD and then stored in a hierarchical storage array.

The data center will have a large number of data ingestors and analysis engines. Mass storage will be scale-out object storage with powerful compression/deduplication and 10 TB drives. The network performance will be higher, upgrading from 10Gbe's standard to 25/50GbE. The aggregated bandwidth will be 10 times that of the current scale, and the backbone network will migrate to 100GbE as the mainstream technology.

In the future of IoT, outbound equipment will surge, covering everything from advertising displays to smart fares and smart signposts.
