No Pain, No Gain? Tomorrow’s Data Centre Challenges

Wednesday 22 October 2008

The Dorchester, London

In association with

Hewlett Packard & LSI

Attend this CBR Dining Club event to discuss in a relaxed atmosphere, and over a sumptuous dinner as always, the data centre pain points of the future and how your organization might overcome them.

Virtualisation, ‘green’ IT, data centre security and more are all up for discussion at this key event. But as well as these timely topics, the expert speakers will also be able to touch on the likes of Solid State Storage for the enterprise, data security at rest and content inspection, and even the likely role of ‘cloud computing’ in the data centre.

Co-sponsored by HP and LSI -- the leading provider of innovative silicon, systems and software technologies that enable products to bring people, information and digital content together – the event is sure to bring some new ideas and solutions to attendees’ data centre challenges today and tomorrow.

Delegates will hear from an independent analyst as well as expert speakers from the co-sponsors, but the focus will as always be on the Q&A session, during which attendees will have the chance to ask the speakers their key questions in the area as well as share ideas and experiences with one another.

The challenges faced by enterprise data centres today and tomorrow
Useful strategies for overcoming those challenges
Whether virtualization, ‘green IT’ and ‘cloud computing’ are likely to play a continued or larger role in data centre strategies
