AGENDA

7:30 AM- 8:25 AM | Registration, Breakfast and Networking
8:25 AM -8:30 AM | Opening Remarks
8:30 AM - 9:15 AM | Alternative Energy Sources and Integration: Feasible Options That Are Being Adopted TodayData centers are increasingly exploring alternative energy sources to power their operations, aiming for sustainability and also cost efficiency. Despite there being several options available, from solar to fuel cells to nuclear, each come advantages and challenges. So what are the most promising sources being applied and piloted today?
9:15 AM - 10:00 AM | Power Distribution and Management: The Evolution of Backup Solutions and What to Apply in Your Data CenterEmploying the right backup power to your data center is a critical piece to the operation. What are the main solutions that are being applied today? Which combination is working well given today’s standard and customer demands, and where is the need for more innovation?
10:00 AM - 10:30 AM | Coffee Break
10:30 AM - 11:15 AM | Is Your Data Center Sustainable Enough? Best Practices and Emerging Innovations to Enhance Your Data Center Sustainability StrategySustainability across every component of the data center development and operational process is top of mind for operators and customers. Luckily, there are innovations and advancements being achieved on a daily basis. What are some best practices that are being implemented today to increase efficiency and reduce emissions, while remaining within budget? What can we expect to see in the next 3-5 years?
11:15 AM - 12:00 PM | The Impact of Our Infrastructure: How is the Cost of Data Center Operations Affected by the Gear That Supports It?Infrastructure utilization and strategies to reduce energy consumption are some of the most recurring and imperative conversations happening in every data center operator and hyperscaler’s engineering forums. Given the sharp rise of AI and power consumption, liquid cooling is expected to lower peak power and annual power, significantly improving PUE. Critically, we are seeing a resurgence of evaporative technologies and cramming more heat rejection in smaller spaces. But where are we now and have our supporting gear technologies of choice delivered lower costs of operations?
