Connecting the hyperscale and enterprise IT community to deploy scalable, efficient IT hardware for AI-driven workloads

AI workloads are fundamentally reshaping IT infrastructure, putting huge demands on densities, processing power and networks.

The DCD>Connect | Compute event series helps the individuals meeting this challenge to make informed decisions faster, through tailored networking, technology-discovery and best-practice sharing.

Key themes for 2025 include:

  • Processing power, performance & high density compute
    Expect deep technical insights into the latest innovations in storage systems, networking equipment & chipsets, understanding the hardware components that must be optimized to enhance performance and scale both processing power and storage availability
  • The future of AI & HPC workloads
    Understand the rapidly evolving ecosystem of advanced compute - including the ongoing growth in demand for cloud and it's role in the AI/HPC landscape - identifying strategies and best-practice that can be deployed to close the IT/OT divide whilst maintaining a robust, adaptable base infrastructure
  • The evolution of advanced computing markets
    Learn how the increasing demand for AI & HPC interacts with wider market trends, including the impact of semiconductor shortages and the increasing pressure on supply chains, and explore the technology innovations and advancements emerging to enable businesses to remain robust and agile through periods of market turbulence

People love DCD>Connect, but don't just take our word for it...

  • “First class event that presented a wide variety of perspectives and technologies in an engaging and informative forum.”

    Data Center Project Architect, AWS
  • “I attend DCD>Connect every year and I encourage my colleagues to as well. The interactions with industry professionals can't be beat. I get more done in two days at this show than I can with six months’ worth of phone calls and online meetings.”

    Associate Director, Verizon
  • “DCD>Connect is the right place to stay on the top of the industry challenges and to collaborate (rather than compete) to overcome these challenges.”
