DC GREENTECH MUMBAI SYNOPSIS

Welcome to the 2nd Annual DC GreenTech Conference & Expo Series in Mumbai. This year we are bringing together a set of distinguished speakers covering a range of critical issues being experienced by you.

Yr 2009 has been a year of Adaptation, Adoption and Adjustment, pressure to perform with minimal investment has been greater than ever before. A range of pressure points have been impacting the way mission-critical facilities are designed, operated, and managed. As with the changing markets, newer data center technologies have come to the forefront. Service offerings have evolved alongside the change in demand and have come to market in an attempt to deal with each new challenge as enterprises look to optimize performance, and government initiatives promote reduced energy consumption.

Limitations on availability of resource and capital, dealing with legacy systems, pressure to consolidate and a pressing need for IT refresh - from the application to the platform, regulation, energy and operational costs, and performance optimization are all affecting design, build and operation transformation.

Pre-conceptions of how data centers and IT mission critical infrastructure are designed, built and operated are once again being challenged. We are witnessing a blurring of the lines between data center, network and services from the Cloud to the LAN closet.

In this our 2nd visit to Mumbai, the DC GreenTech Conference and Expo series will address the challenges faced by owners and operators of legacy structures in need of upgrading and new builds required to meet the complex combination of exponential data growth, technology advances, energy efficiency, resilience and security.
