Sustainable IT
At iOCO, we recognise that sustainability has risen to the forefront of business strategies. CEOs now rank ecological responsibility among their top priorities. There's a palpable pressure from stakeholders for businesses to step up their sustainability game. Our business is no different, and with adaptability at the forefront of our work ethos, we have developed solutions that align environmental considerations with efficiency and growth.
Data growth and its impact
The digital universe is expanding at a staggering pace, with data volume projected to burgeon from 33 zettabytes in 2018 to a colossal 1,000 zettabytes by 2030. Yet, a startling 68% of this data remains untouched post-creation, leading to an unnecessary carbon footprint that eclipses the entire airline industry.
