Opening Keynote - How to Future-Proof Your Data Center Operation: Given the Dynamics of Today, How Are You Planning for Tomorrow?
Today, data center operators are faced with an increasing amount of factors and dynamics to consider when building and operating a new facility. Looking at the trajectory of the industry, land availability is becoming more limited, cost pressures are increasing and utilizing renewable energy is no longer optional. Given these factors that we are faced with today, how are you planning for tomorrow and the years that come after?

Dynamics of High Density: How the Increasing Rack Power Density is Changing Data Center Operations and Optimization Strategies
Power rack density is on its way up and creating a new definition of ‘average’ frequency. What are the impacts on uptime availability, resiliency, sustainability, and power costs of ever-higher power densities and cooling requirements?
11:30 AM

Closing Keynote: Optimizing Data Center Infrastructure is No Longer One Stakeholders’ Responsibility, It’s Everyone’s
Through this panel of key stakeholders, all responsible for different parts of the data center IT stack, each panelist will discuss what they have experienced to take on more responsibility in the rapidly growing infrastructure optimization equation. From site selection to energy sourcing, every member is operating with a common goal: do more with less.

Why you can't miss this data center operations event

What You'll Takeaway From The Conference

  • Power and cooling are one the largest, critical segments of the data center industry, what innovations are making operations run more efficiently?
  • How will Northern Virginia navigate power limitations and what does this mean for your operations?
  • Air cooling, liquid cooling, or other? Which technique is best when considering cost and scale?
  • Sustainability is becoming an increasing priority, but how do we ensure we're on the right path?
  • Is Los Angeles and Northern California leading the charge on sustainable operations? Can best practices be learned from their data centers?
  • Is the current infrastructure ready for new technologies? How do we brace for the future?
  • With increasing population growth across major markets like Dallas and Denver, how are operators planning for more density?
  • What are the impacts on uptime availability, resiliency, sustainability, and power costs of ever-higher power densities and cooling requirements?

 

How You'll Do More Business From Attending: Dive into power, cooling, density, DCIM trends that industry experts are currently adopting, and how to optimize your data center for the most optimal performance. With rack densities increasing and capacity continuing to hit limitations, maximizing what you have currently and running it efficiently will be a key differentiating factor. 

 

Who You’ll Meet While Networking: Owners, providers, engineers, brokers, contractors, director of operations, director of operations, CIOs, investors, lawyers, CEOs, vice president of design and construction
