Server virtualization, application delivery, and IT consumerization have all impacted how end-users process and consume information. Because of this, entire business models are being forced to change and data center operations forced to evolve.
New types of demands can be difficult for IT to juggle for a variety of reasons. They represent tactical issues relating to IT staffing and budget, but they also represent real inflection points in the way enterprises strategically conduct business in the 21st century.
Within IT, CIOs are trying to figure out how to do more with fewer resources. It’s not just pressure from CFOs to reduce capital expenses. It’s also the ongoing challenge of finding trained staff for key responsibilities, especially in geographical areas where demand for IT skills is high.
Beyond IT, organizations are asking CIOs to deploy infrastructures that help the business respond quickly to changing competitive conditions. At the top of the list: the ability for employees to communicate quickly among themselves (for greater productivity), and for suppliers, partners and customers to access information quickly (for greater service and reliability).
In this whitepaper from CoreSite, we see how there are multiple definitions of multi-tenancy. Some cite the presence of applications side-by-side as multi-tenancy, while others cite the presence of customer data side-by-side as multi-tenancy. No matter how it’s defined, a multi-tenant data center houses multiple communication networks in a single facility.

Outsourcing infrastructure needs
Implementation and shared infrastructure efficiency
Cost control and operational efficiency
