Digital Infrastructures – Call for Contributions
Digital infrastructure enables the connectivity that we all enjoy and take for granted. dotmagazine’s Call for Contributions on how digital infrastructures lay the foundation for our digital world.
Digital infrastructure enables the connectivity that we all enjoy and take for granted. As the nucleus for the digital economy and society as a whole, digital infrastructure forms the foundation for the higher layers in all value chains and is becoming ever more imperative as digital transformation surges. Without high-speed networks and highly secure, available, and reliable data centers, there can be no digitalization.
