The present day datacenters are old in both design and philosophy. They were built a decade ago, and are falling short in keeping up with new technology and new business models. In addition, they were not designed to be "green"– indeed very few things were at the time. 

Businesses have realized the immense leverage IT can bring to their success, but they wish it were more flexible, agile and easier to use. Both LOBs* and CIOs rate datacenter transformation almost equally important for improving their competitiveness in the coming year. In addition, LOBs also want to invest in IT that helps them reach out to customers in new ways.

However, transforming the datacenter is easier said than done. It requires a thorough study that helps end-user understand the goals they need to achieve post transformation. IDC believes that while end-users realize the need to transform their businesses they are at a loss on where they need to start and whom they should partner with. There is also confusion around the ideal type of datacenter that will serve their needs in the future. 

If you are seeking answers to the following questions, this seminar is where all your concerns and doubts will be addressed!

• Design: What kind of blueprint/design to build the next datacenter that survives the next 10-15 years?
• Technology: Which new forms of server, storage, networking, power and cooling architectures should be installed?
• Management: What type of infrastructure software solutions will help you become more efficient and reduce unplanned downtime?
• Philosophy: How can you become more nimble, and adaptive without giving up the availability, and more aligned to the business to contribute more effectively to the growth?
