Cloud Computing and Colocation Session
Dealing with Data Center growth: Cloud computing, colocation and leasing options
Presented by Dan Golding, Vice President and Research Director, Tier 1 Research
Exorbitant costs and tight capital markets have forced IT organizations to reconsider the wisdom of building and managing their own data center facilities. Today, IT organizations that have traditionally owned data centers are researching data center leasing, colocation and cloud computing options to deal with expanding growth. In this session, Dan Golding of Tier1 research, will explain the differences between each approach and help you weigh the pros and cons of these options to accommodate your IT department’s growth.
