INTRODUCTION INFORMATION PROGRAMME PARTNERS REGISTRATION
 
Introduction

Building on the success of previous years, DatacenterToday is back in Brussels for the sixth year in succession. The DatacenterToday Conference & Expo has positioned itself in recent years as the largest gathering of professionals working on the design, building and management of 24/7 Mission Critical IT facilities - from the datacentre to the LAN box.

A unique event where education and networks converge. This year, we expect to see over 200 professionals.

Virtualization of storage-server-desktops, as well as converging applications, concentration and green IT resulted in a constantly changing face for the modern, efficient data centre in 2009.

Gartner predicts that the role of the datacentre manager will become even more difficult in 2010. Problems relating to energy, space and technology will have even more impact on the costs and management of a datacentre.

The datacentre manager is still worried about a bill-shock from the electricity company: that fear is greater than the interest in a smart grid. Green IT and the pressure to cut carbon emissions are gradual changes that will force a migration from the current datacentre to a green(er) datacentre: will it be an evolution or a swap?

The impact of blade servers, virtualisaton, the enormous increase in storage and in general, the demand for more power per rack forms a range of hot spots in the datacentre that the climate control can no longer handle. "Less is more?" But how do I deal with that in the next 5 years?

How can I meet the demand for reducing complexity with the requirement for greater flexibility?

"Measurement is knowledge" will definitely be applied in a more concrete way in 2010, to achieve better management, more supervision and permanent monitoring of the main parameters of a data centre: power-cooling-space, as well as security, capacity management, storage,...

Our programme will keep results-driven datacenter professionals informed about the latest strategies and developments to help them tackle the major challenges facing the datacenter industry in the next 5 year.
