Conventional IT infrastructures are undergoing change - not only in corporations, but also in medium-sized companies. Traditional systems are increasingly reaching their limits when it comes to scalability, flexibility and efficiency. This is where HCI comes into play: a modern infrastructure concept that combines computing power, storage and networking in a single platform. But what exactly distinguishes HCI from traditional IT structures and what advantages does it offer for medium-sized companies in particular?

Ensuring a future-proof IT infrastructure with limited resources, providing, administering and maintaining high-performance hardware and virtualization - at ever-increasing costs and with ever-increasing complexity: a modern working and IT environment demands flexibility, performance and security. However, the price increases of the big players on the market are not a sustainable prospect. You need a digital work and virtualization landscape without compromises, with top performance, top technologies and at top prices.

The cost pressure on companies is growing. IT departments are not spared from this either. Reasons for this include rising license costs, higher salaries for IT specialists and the continuously growing demand for high-performance hardware and cloud services. Medium-sized companies in particular are increasingly under pressure to manage their IT budgets efficiently without sacrificing innovation and security. We take a closer look at the topic.

He started at DTS as a technician in 1986 - at a time when the company was still a system house for hardware and software, computers still had to be screwed together and the Internet was in its infancy. Now another new chapter is beginning for him as Ulli takes his well-deserved retirement after more than four decades.

New year, new top lists - Part 2 of our two-part special at the start of the year now follows. Instead of the general technology hypes, we are now looking at the IT security topics that will be our main focus this year. “Spotlight on” for the ten most important IT security priorities that will be in focus in 2025 in order to remain competitive and protected and to ensure holistic IT security strategies.

New year, new top lists - we also have an overview for 2025 of the IT topics that will shape this year and the developments in IT security that you should keep an eye on. Dynamism is inevitable, especially in the field of IT technologies. The IT world is developing rapidly and the year 2025 also promises exciting progress. In two separate blog articles, we take a look at what is to come or could come.

Efficient cyber protection starts with a modern firewall. However, the second step necessarily asks the following questions: Who checks, monitors and updates the firewalls? Who carries out backup and recovery? Who implements changes? DTS takes the decisive step further: Let's go beyond the firewall!

Let's face it, when it comes to cyberattacks, barely any company is “ahead of the curve”. In most cases, they merely react and essential security measures are implemented far too late or are no longer state of the art. If you don't just want to swim with or behind the wave, you need to proactively adapt to the threat landscape. Purple Teaming has established itself as an innovative strategy for precisely this purpose. The combination of Red and Blue Teaming is considered groundbreaking in IT security. We would like to explain why we see it the same way.

Blockchain is now a tech myth. It is one of those IT terms that everyone has probably heard before. But only very few people know what it means. Yet in recent years, blockchain has developed into one of the most important technical concepts, going far beyond its original application for cryptocurrencies. We would like to explain what this technology is all about, why experts are talking about the potential for a “new era” and what possible applications exist today or tomorrow.
