and
Cordially invite you
to a
Data Center Efficiency
Workshop
Join us to learn
more about how to lower the costs of operation
Power and cooling requirements
have risen at an ever-increasing rate .
The recent
trend toward virtualization has pushed the requirements to new levels
never even imagined just 5 years ago. The average power has risen from
1-2 KW to 5-10KW per rack and some cases as high as 20-30KW per rack.
The current environment makes
energy efficiency a necessity .
Greening Initiatives,
Power Consumption & Provisioning,
as well as
Capacity Planning are among the top
major concerns for Data Center managers today. Various studies show
that in the past few years, as the pressure to expand computing
resources increases, concerns relating to power and cooling become more
and more important.
While
virtualization has decreased the number of servers and the space
requirements, it has raised power and cooling density to the point that
data centers that were built only a few years ago are unable to
effectively or efficiently support the new high-density 1U and Blade
Servers.
This workshop will address these
challenges, as well as how to measure and improve Data Center
efficiency.

This is a full day 4 CEU credit
workshop that is being offered as two 1/2 day sessions, Power
and Cooling, upon completion of which attendees will receive 4
CEU credits, for 2 each session.
Seminar Details:
This seminar will
cover a variety of related topics discussing the benefits, estimated
costs and challenges to designing and building (or upgrading) a cost effective,
energy efficient data
center for your organization.
