Sessions within this conference theme will look at techniques and technologies that will maximise your PUE and get you on the path toward efficiency and cost savings.
    DC Design and Green IT Innovations
    Innovation is a central theme of the green data centre conference and will be represented as such. The Design Innovation conference theme will analyze both new and existing technologies that can be implemented to optimise your facilities performance. Topics addressed within the Design Innovation stream will include storage efficiency, virtualisation, cloud, modular and container rollouts and much more!
    Management and Operational Strategies
    While DC design and equipment tends to get the most scrutiny in the green data centre arena, the importance of management, metrics and measurements cannot be ignored. The Data Centre Management and Operations track will consist of key strategies that even the most advanced data centre manager can learn from. Topics addressed will range from site selection and cost of ownership to DCIM and utilisation techniques.
