International Self-Care Month: Take control of your digital life

It is International Self-Care month and this guest post by Peter Lantry, Managing Director for Equinix in Ireland is rather apt. An interesting conversation started at work recently as we looked at the number of photos we have stored on our phones. Some of us had tens of thousands - this was deemed reasonable. Others had folders containing hundreds of thousands. One person had a mere 400, which was generally viewed as mind-blowing. Regardless of how many photos we each had, one thing was common among us - even the person with 400 - they were unmanageable. There is a growing understanding that having excess, unmanaged digital files in any form can cause stress and anxiety. And, as a society which is increasingly focused on wellness, it is important - particularly during International Self-Care Month - that we consider our digital wellbeing as part of this. We are constantly streaming, texting, searching, gaming and everything in between, with more and more of our lives existing online. This data boom is evidenced by the numbers: the amount of data generated worldwide increased exponentially from 2 zettabytes (ZB) in 2010 to 64.2 ZB in 2020, and is forecast to almost treble to 181 ZB by 2025 (according to the World Economic Forum). In 2024, on average, globally, we sent 16 million texts every minute and 361 billion emails every day. Many have called data the most valuable resource in the world. But how many of us can say that about every single digital file we own and store? If our home is in a state of chaos, most of us take steps to make it more presentable and manageable. And we know the impact of that on our mental health. Is there anything quite like sitting down with a cup of tea looking at a tidy home? Yet, we seem more comfortable with letting the virtual mess pile up. I myself have personal and work email accounts totalling more than 30,000 emails extending back many years, while my personal cloud storage application is almost full, and my mobile phone is teeming with photos, videos, and apps - most of which I do not actively use or have any interest in. And I know I'm not the only one. This dormant data serves no other purpose than to take up space on our devices. Meanwhile, it is also having an impact on our own headspace. As the boundaries between our digital and physical lives continue to blur and we learn more about the impact of this delineation, experts say that storing too many items on our devices can cause anxiety and create a sense of being overwhelmed. As Sarah Reynolds, Ireland's premier organiser and founder of Organised Chaos, advises: make a list of target areas, sort everything into folders, delete or unsubscribe from what you don't need, and then carry out regular audits to ensure your devices are a stress-free zone. These tips will help us to begin our digital wellbeing journeys, which will be of increasing importance as technology continues to advance. Where those technologies take us remains to be seen, but one thing is for certain: we are going to keep producing bytes and bytes of information. We all know the value of data. For individuals, it can mean holding onto precious memories or creating libraries of files that support our lifestyles. At Equinix, data enables us to support healthcare diagnoses and innovations, assist in drug discovery, and drive innovation in quantum computing and sustainability. At its physical home in data centres, we are seeing how data is driving a healthier, more sustainable future; how it is connecting us to the people, things and solutions that matter to us. Today, we all want - and need - data. Dormant data, however, serves no one. By being proactive and regularly maintaining order in our digital lives, we can stay on top of our data and free up our minds to concentrate on other areas of our lives that need attention and nurturing. As we prepare for an even more digital future, let's ensure we embrace it with wellbeing See more stories here. More about Irish Tech ...

As the primary school year drew to a close, Equinix, the world's digital infrastructure company, hosted 4th class students from Scoil Ghráinne CNS in Phibblestown for a behind-the-scenes tour of Equinix's DB3 data centre in Dublin. Seventeen students, along with their teachers, met senior Equinix leaders to learn how data centres work and the impact that they have on the students' daily lives. The education day gave the children the opportunity to walk inside the 'physical internet' and discover its far-reaching impact on their own lives, businesses, healthcare and more. The class also learned about Equinix's commitment to net zero and biodiversity. Among the initiatives discussed was Equinix's participation in Digital Infrastructure Ireland's Orchards in the Community project, which plants orchards for schools and other community organisations to encourage pollination. The children also learned about Equinix's onsite beehives and bee habitats. During the visit, the class worked in teams to design collages based on what they imagined the physical internet looks like. Later, Equinix team members took the schoolchildren and their teachers into the heart of the DB3 data centre for an exclusive tour. Warren Delaney, Ireland Operations Director, Equinix, said: "At Equinix, we are committed to educating the communities around us about our role. For these young people, it is eye-opening to walk inside a data centre and imagine the parts of their daily lives that our industry makes possible. For some, it may even spark an interest in a career in technology. Having started my own career as an apprentice electrician, I know that there are many options and pathways into this industry via our apprenticeship and internship programmes in Ireland. It was fantastic to observe the students so engaged and eager to learn." See more stories here.

Show Notes In this conversation, Chris Yates and Simon Western discuss how organizations have become modern temples of power, shaping societal norms in positive and challenging ways. Organizations offer spaces to be productive, to deliver services and to provide meaning and development for individuals, yet they also can stifle individuality and feedback through corporate conformity. The podcast reflects on how art, small acts of kindness and ecosystems thinking are the leadership approaches that can transform organisations and liberate employees to engage relationally and realise their full potential. Chris questions traditional leadership models, highlighting the need to prioritize character over competence and move beyond the military-influenced structures that dominate corporate life. Leadership, they argue, is not about static positions but fluid relationships—emerging in unexpected places and shaped by small moments of humanity rather than grand, ego-driven achievements. The conversation also highlights the burden of projections on leaders, who risk becoming seduced by the images others place upon them. Looking ahead, Simon and Chris consider the future of leadership in a world that increasingly demands authenticity and interconnectedness. They call for a shift to eco-centric leadership,  one that embraces moral responsibility, acknowledges the social role of organizations, and also seeks inspiration from art to reimagine work and leadership. Chris closes by reminding us that the smallest acts of kindness and courage in the face of adversity can reshape leadership, organizations, and society itself. Key Reflections Organizations hold immense power as modern temples, shaping societal norms and driving change. Corporate cultures often enforce conformity, stifling individuality, feedback, and personal identity. Leadership discussions focus too much on competence and too little on the moral character of leaders. Leadership is not a fixed title but a fluid, relational process that can emerge from unexpected places. Leaders must resist being seduced by the projections and expectations placed upon them. The future of leadership requires shifting from ego-driven ambition to collective, eco-centric responsibility. True leadership is found not in grand gestures but in small, everyday acts of humanity. Creativity and art offers a powerful lens to rethink work, leadership, and our role in the world. Keywords corporate culture, society, leadership, power dynamics, identity, character, reimagination, eco-leadership Brief Bio Christopher Yates, Senior Vice President of Talent at Equinix, is a leader committed to professional and personal growth within organizations. He oversees Equinix's global talent strategy, focusing on attracting, developing, and retaining diverse talent while aligning leadership initiatives with the company's growth and innovation objectives.  Previously Chris held senior OD positions in Microsoft, Ford, American Express, Caterpillar and HSBC bank, playing a vital role in shaping business transformation.  Chris is co-author with Pooja Sachdev of Rewire: A Radical Approach to Tackling Diversity and Difference and has also co-authored Share: How Organizations Can Thrive in an Age of Networked Knowledge, Power and Relationships.

Send us a textWhat exactly is cloud networking? This seemingly simple question quickly descends into a fascinating philosophical debate as we welcome back Nico Vibert, Senior Staff Technical Marketing Engineer at Isovalent/Cisco, to tackle this identity crisis head-on.The conversation begins with a startling observation from Nico about analyst reports that group wildly different vendors together under the "cloud networking" umbrella. From there, we explore how defining cloud networking has become increasingly complex as technologies evolve and converge. We trace the origins back to AWS's introduction of VPC in 2009 and discuss how different cloud providers approach networking based on their unique company cultures.One clear consensus emerges: true cloud networking must be API-driven. Whether consumed directly via APIs or through infrastructure-as-code tools like Terraform, programmability stands as a non-negotiable requirement. But beyond this foundation, the boundaries blur significantly when examining various technologies that might qualify.Does Kubernetes networking fall under the cloud networking umbrella? What about Middle Mile providers like Equinix or Megaport that physically connect clouds? Are CDNs part of cloud networking, or something entirely different? We dissect these questions without settling on definitive answers, highlighting how technology's rapid evolution makes categorization increasingly difficult.Looking ahead, we explore how AI is reshaping cloud networking in two critical ways: networks optimized for AI workloads and AI-enhanced network management. Cloud providers are investing billions in infrastructure upgrades, developing custom silicon to reduce dependency on GPU manufacturers, signaling massive transformation on the horizon.Whether you're a network engineer, cloud architect, or technology leader trying to understand this evolving landscape, this episode provides valuable perspective on cloud networking's past, present, and future directions.Connect with Nico: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicolasvibert/Purchase Chris and Tim's new book on AWS Cloud Networking: https://www.amazon.com/Certified-Advanced-Networking-Certification-certification/dp/1835080839/ Check out the Fortnightly Cloud Networking Newshttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1fkBWCGwXDUX9OfZ9_MvSVup8tJJzJeqrauaE6VPT2b0/Visit our website and subscribe: https://www.cables2clouds.com/Follow us on BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/cables2clouds.comFollow us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@cables2clouds/Follow us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cables2cloudsMerch Store: https://store.cables2clouds.com/Join the Discord Study group: https://artofneteng.com/iaatj

Yet, there is still a significant gap between where we are and where we need to be. "This seminar will explore how emerging guidelines, scalable solutions, and digital infrastructure can enable buildings to participate in energy markets - reducing carbon emissions and enhancing grid resilience while facilitating greater penetration of renewable energy." Equinix owns 268 data centres globally, including four retail colocation facilities and 2 xScale facilities in Dublin. Peter Lantry will discuss the need for Ireland to address existing barriers to further digital investment if the country is to avoid missing crucial economic opportunities. "Ireland, especially Dublin, has successfully attracted digital services companies, including data centres, over the past 40 years. The challenge now is how to keep pace with other tech nations amid energy distribution and supply issues that have deterred data centre development, which impacts Ireland's economy." Additional speakers at the seminar will include Conor Minogue, Senior Executive at IBEC discussing the business case for meeting climate action targets, and Heidi Duffy, Operations Environmental and Sustainability Manager at Iarnród Éireann, sharing insights on the challenges and solutions to the transition to sustainable public transport. This event will take place in Engineers Ireland, 22 Clyde Road, Ballsbridge, Dublin 4. Tickets are available at www.engineersireland.ie or by following this link. See more stories here.

Equinix, the world's digital infrastructure company, recently collaborated with fashion designer Maximilian Raynor to bring the internet to life at his debut 2025 London Fashion Week show. The opening exhibition of the show saw 'The Personification of the Internet' come to life as a dress - encapsulating the physical reality of the hidden networks that power our digital lives. The dress, made from 3.6kms of cabling used at Equinix data centres, weighed in at 25kg and took 640 hours to make. It highlighted that the internet doesn't reside in an invisible "cloud"; instead it relies on physical infrastructure that is all around us. It served as a powerful reminder of the intricate and unseen forces behind the intelligent age we live in. Speaking on his collaboration with Equinix, Maximilian Raynor said: "As a designer, you don't need access to the finest materials to create something beautiful. Often, the most unconventional materials, paired with a make-do-and-mend approach to design, can achieve really exciting outcomes. Working with these materials and discovering a new technique to bring them to life has been a joy." Bruce Owen, EMEA President at Equinix, explained: "By bridging the gap between the physical and virtual, we wanted to create something tangible that highlights the thousands of connections Equinix fosters to support economies and societies daily. "The design pays tribute to the physical infrastructure that constitutes the internet. Rather than being an inexplicable force, it is a complex, intricate network of cables traversing land and sea, with physical connections housed in Equinix data centres worldwide. "This campaign is a light hearted exploration of an important topic. We should celebrate the internet's tangible impact on daily life and business, as well as its crucial role to economies throughout the world. "Whether it's developing new drugs to combat diseases, facilitating online and in-store payments, or keeping people connected across the world, we seek to highlight the value that data centres bring to society and generate global awareness for our rapidly growing and essential industry."

Desert Oracle: B2B Marketing Lessons from Ken Layne's Love of Lo-Fi Media with Chief Evangelist at Contentful, Nicole France

You would never send a postcard instead of an email, create a zine instead of a white paper, or take polaroids instead of digital headshots. But that's why you, the digital marketer, should do it.There's an appeal to all of these lo-fi, analog mediums that call back to yesteryear. A nostalgia. A deliberate denial of modernity. Not only would it surprise your audience, it would lure them right in.So in this episode, we're making a case for lo-fi content. We're doing so by pulling marketing lessons from Ken Layne's Desert Oracle.With the help of our special guest, Chief Evangelist at Contentful, Nicole France, we talk about creating lo-fi content, bucking convention, taking a distinct perspective, and much more.About our guest, Nicole FranceNicole France is Chief Evangelist at Contentful. Nicole is a passionate customer advocate evangelizing new ways of thinking about content and organizing the work of digital business. It's the wave of the future — and her mission is to make sure everyone knows why. She brings the perspective and critical thinking of an industry analyst and the first-hand experience of a practitioner. Before joining Contentful, Nicole worked as an analyst at Constellation Research and Gartner. She also held a variety of strategy and marketing roles at Fujitsu, Equinix, ITSMA, and Cisco. A graduate of UC Berkeley, Nicole enjoys the outdoors, flying small planes, and embarking on yet another house project in her spare time.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Desert Oracle:Create lo-fi content. Make a zine, a radio show or podcast, a book or comic book. Something your audience can touch and can use to get a bit deeper into your world. Make your brand real for them. Nicole says that when it comes to Desert Oracle, “There's something here that kind of harkens back to what the arts and crafts movement was. In the industrial revolution, you know, this idea of kind of going back to this craft, this artisanal, this very human, this very lo-fi way of doing things. And ironically enough, I think there's a real space for that, even in these digital channels.”Buck convention. Feeling disillusioned with the mainstream take on building an audience? Ken Layne grows his audience by creating niche, tangible content with a strong sense of place and it has garnered a dedicated following. In 2024, 44% of Spotify listeners were new to the Desert Oracle podcast, and it ranked among the top 5 or top 10 podcasts for 5,000 listeners. Nicole says, “ [Ken Layne] is actively rejecting conventional wisdom about how you build an audience. And yet that is absolutely part of what is making him successful at doing it. And it's almost like the extent to which I think of Patagonia a lot of times in this kind of context, where Patagonia is telling you, like, use the stuff you already have. And that somehow is part of what makes you want to keep going back to Patagonia. This is what makes people so loyal to Patagonia is the bigger mission. And like weirdly telling people not to buy it somehow is what makes them want to go and buy more, which is sort of, but not actually their intent.”Take a distinct perspective. What is the story that is unique to you? That's the story you want to tell. Nicole says, “ That distinctiveness in that perspective and that point of view, I think that's something that really effective brands gravitate toward anyway. They're good at it consciously and sometimes unconsciously as well. And I think B2B marketing needs more of that. You know, where what we offer our customers, regardless of what we're selling is typically not generic stuff. So why should our marketing sound like generic stuff? And yet a whole hell of a lot of it does. For a long time, we've been in a world where there's a tremendous volume of noise and the kinds of things that get cut through are things like Ken Layne's curmudgeonly, somewhat dismissive and yet somehow totally compelling take on the world. That's what draws people in."Curate an experience. Ken Layne curates an experience that captures the mystical nature of Joshua Tree and the greater Mojave Desert. And he does it by appealing to the senses - more than just the sight that digital content requires. You hear the voices of the desert through his podcast and radio show. You can hold an artifact of the desert: the Desert Oracle zine. His multimedia approach creates a world unique to Desert Oracle. And you get the inside scoop. Nicole says, “ There is a very specific point of view, it is Ken Layne's point of view. But he also brings in a bunch of stories from other people and from other places and sometimes from other times as well.  he's curating an experience for you. And I think that is a really powerful takeaway here.”Quotes*” What Ken Layne does with Desert Oracle is paint this very compelling picture of a place. In some cases, a literal place, like when he's hiking out in Joshua tree, or in some cases, it's more of almost like a spiritual place, a conceptual place that we want to be in.*” How do we get back in touch with the things that are really fundamental, that really are the most important in our existence and nature and, you know, as people? And then how do we associate those meaningful things with what we do in the rest of our lives?”*” [Ken Layne] is actively rejecting conventional wisdom about how you build an audience. And yet that is absolutely part of what is making him successful at doing it. And it's almost like the extent to which I think of Patagonia a lot of times in this kind of context, where Patagonia is telling you, like, use the stuff you already have. And that somehow is part of what makes you want to keep going back to Patagonia. This is what makes people so loyal to Patagonia is the bigger mission. And like weirdly telling people not to buy it somehow is what makes them want to go and buy more, which is sort of, but not actually their intent.”*” When you have a really compelling idea or message at the core, you can find all of these different ways of communicating it really effectively.”*” We found the podcast and then we found the publication. And I guess it really speaks to this idea that multimedia is everywhere. It's in a whole bunch of different stuff. And I think that is actually a really important message and takeaway here, too.  I think that  this idea of being able to explore different aspects of the story and the story world is really key.  Knowing where your audience is, but also being able to bring your audience to where you are, or where you want them to be.  Like, I have totally been brought in and then bought into the world of Desert Oracle. How I got there is almost immaterial, but like there are all these different places that I'm getting this enjoyment from, being part of that world and I feel like I have found a path that brought me in there.”*”[Desert Oracle] is not for everybody for sure, but boy, it creates an incredibly loyal and dedicated audience.

Equinix, the digital infrastructure company, has launched a guide to encourage effective and efficient management of digital files, and raise awareness of how this can support mental wellbeing. Many of us are hoarding tens - or even hundreds - of thousands of photos, emails, and documents, never to be viewed again. Dr Susan Albers, a clinical psychologist at the Cleveland Clinic, recently stated that storing too many digital items on our devices can lead to anxiety and stress. In fact, she says, it can be just as stressful as having a cluttered home, as our brains yearn for simplicity. In reality, our digital clutter does have a physical presence… in data centres. Equinix has approximately 270 data centres around the world with an extraordinary amount of data flowing through them. Digital infrastructure, serving as the backbone of today's economy, encompasses connectivity that touches our everyday lives. It connects all of our digital devices and enables everything from online banking to improved health diagnoses, to communicating with friends and family, and getting us to work (think: digital travelcards, wallets, alarms and our entertainment or email-checking on the way into the office). While data has brought untold benefits to human capabilities and our societies, the amount of information and images we are exposed to everyday can be overwhelming. To address this issue, Equinix has teamed up with Sarah Reynolds, founder of Organised Chaos, a company helping individuals to unclutter their daily lives - both physically and virtually. Top 10 Tips for digital wellness: 1- Make a checklist. Make a list of everything you want to clear out. This could be photos and videos, emails, drives, or apps on your phone. Then target one area at a time, once per week. By working on just one area at a time, you will focus the mind. Within two months, with consistency, you will find yourself in much better shape. 2 - Streamline your photos and videos. Photos and videos are one of the main culprits of device clutter, causing undue stress and frustration when a person can't find the file they are looking for. This can be made more manageable by creating folders - using dates or categories - on your device, or through a secure third-party storage application. While you're organising, why not create a "Print" folder - next time you are at a shop, you can print the items in the folder and enjoy your best snaps. Once you have organised and categorised the images you want to keep, you can delete any unwanted or duplicated files. Result: less stuff holding you back and less cost for storage! 3- Aim for inbox zero. Newsletters and email alerts are a major factor in clogging up inboxes, but inbox zero is possible! Many email providers offer notifications for when you are subscribing to email updates you don't read. There are also apps available that can unsubscribe you in bulk. This will help to streamline existing emails. Then, make yourself a policy that every time you receive an email you know you don't want to read, unsubscribe immediately. Additionally, consider a separate email address only to be used for subscriptions. For emails you want to keep, use your folder system to categorise emails by topic or sender. 4 - Organise your computer - desktop, downloads and files. Just as a countertop is not for storing items from the kitchen and things with no 'home', or a desk surface is not for storing office items (this may come as a surprise to some!) - a desktop is not for storing digital files. Start your desktop cleanup by sorting everything into folders. Then, take a look at your downloaded files, which can often be a source of digital junk! Make sure you have everything you need saved and categorised, while deleting anything you don't need. Finally, ensure that every file on your computer has a folder and that every folder has a label. This is perhaps a once-a-year job, but it is good to go through each folder and make sure the files within are ...

Schneider Electric Unveils Vision for Sustainable AI-Powered Data Centers in Landmark Virtual Broadcast

Schneider Electric, a global leader in energy management and automation, has positioned itself at the forefront of the AI revolution with the launch of its first-ever virtual broadcast dedicated to artificial intelligence. The event spotlighted Schneider's innovative strategies and groundbreaking technologies aimed at transforming data centres to meet the ever growing demands of AI. The AI Era: A New Industrial Revolution Pankaj Sharma, Executive Vice President of Data Centers & Networks at Schneider Electric, opened the broadcast with a bold declaration, "At Schneider Electric, we see the AI revolution as the next industrial revolution." Sharma emphasized the urgent need to scale data center operations swiftly and sustainably. "We must scale quickly, while remaining sustainable, equip data centers with flexible infrastructure and source power for resiliency," he added. The surge in AI adoption has led to a rapid expansion in global data center power demands, projected to double between 2022 and 2026. With AI workloads requiring immense computational power, cooling systems, and energy resources, the industry faces unprecedented challenges in maintaining efficiency and reducing environmental impact. Innovations Powering the AI Transformation Schneider Electric announced several key advancements during the broadcast. Among the highlights was the launch of the Galaxy VXL UPS, the world's first modular and scalable uninterruptible power supply (UPS) designed specifically for AI data centers. Capable of delivering up to 1.25 MW of power, the Galaxy VXL UPS reduces its carbon footprint by 38% compared to traditional systems and leverages an eco-mode feature to cut operating expenses by more than 50%. Another milestone was Schneider's recent acquisition of Motivair, a leading company in liquid cooling and thermal management solutions. This acquisition bolsters Schneider's capability to deliver end-to-end solutions for AI data centers, encompassing energy systems from the "grid to the chip" and cooling systems from the "chip to the chiller." Liz O'Sullivan, NVIDIA Alliance Leader at Schneider Electric, also unveiled a new collaboration with NVIDIA to create reference designs for sustainable, liquid-cooled AI clusters capable of supporting up to 132 kW per rack. "This reference design will enable operators with a tested architecture and design that supports NVIDIA's new Blackwell chip," said O'Sullivan. Meeting the Challenges of AI Growth The rapid expansion of AI workloads is reshaping the data center landscape. Jim Simonelli, Chief Technology Officer of Data Centers & Networks at Schneider Electric, highlighted the scale of this transformation, "We expect between 100 and 150 GW of data centers will be built in the next five years, 60% of which will be dedicated to AI." However, this growth comes with significant environmental and operational challenges. Aparna Prabhakar, Senior Vice President of Strategy & Sustainability for Data Centers & Networks, spoke about the dual impact of AI. "AI is acting as a double-edged sword," she said, "On one hand, AI drives efficiencies in our business, increasing productivity and speed. On the other, AI workloads require far more power, generate more heat, and demand greater cooling, leading to a spike in energy usage and emissions." Schneider Electric is tackling these challenges head-on with ambitious sustainability goals. The company has pledged to reduce CO2 emissions from its top 1,000 suppliers by 50% by 2025, a target it is well on its way to achieving, with a 33% reduction already realized. In recognition of these efforts, Schneider Electric was named the world's most sustainable company in June 2024 by Time magazine and Statista. Energy Efficiency in Action Schneider Electric's sustainable approach has already delivered measurable results for industry leaders. In partnership with Equinix, a global data center provider, Schneider implemented an energy contract and power purchase agreement ...
