At the start of this year California became the first state to put a price on carbon emissions. The Cap-and-Trade program, part of California's Global Warming Solutions Act (AB 32), forms a core part of that state’s ambitious energy policy targets.
As large energy consumers, how will this affect data center operators? What efficiencies can be put in place to take the new tax into account internally or should more focus lie on the utility grid?
And how will this impact data center investment? what will the continued trend toward virtualization and consolidation mean in this context? There will be fewer data centers, but will higher densities demand and energy demand counter-act any savings?
As converged infrastructure becomes the norm and network programmability on the rise, how is this changing the data center landscape? Is the world of many Clouds being made easier? And how will the continued evolution of virtualization, SDN and the emergence of the Software Defined Data Center make themselves felt? Is the continued move towards virtualilzation and multi-vendor networks actually simplifying and economising the data center?
With 5 halls offering up to date information from leading industry experts in the form of individual sessions addressing Power, DCIM, virtualization, Cloud Computing and the rise of the Software Defined Data Center, DCD Converged San Francisco is the event to explore the latest trends and technologies in the data center space.
