Data center infrastructure spending and budgets up in 2015

Companies responded to 2014 by bumping up hardware budgets
In tune with Gartner's predictions about IT spending, a CIO survey from Piper Jaffray revealed that IT budgets will be getting a boost this year as companies look to adapt to the opportunities presented by new technology. The survey showed that 65 percent of respondents reported that their company's IT budgets would be increased in 2015, raising on-premise spending by 2 percent year over year, according to Datacenter Dynamics. With a bit of extra funds at their disposal, IT teams throughout the data center industry will have more room to experiment with more advanced cooling and efficiency strategies.
