Unlocking the Value in Retired Data Centre Assets

Decommissioning data centre assets can be a daunting task for IT organisations. As a result, companies often focus solely on data security and regulatory compliance while overlooking the potential value of retired assets. However, these assets often have significant value that can be recovered and used to improve financial results, increase ROI, and augment IT budgets.
