Why you should attend:

The Data Center Energy Efficiency and Renovating or Building a New Data Center seminars have traveled across the U.S. in 2008. Past attendees have raved about the education, networking and technology information they’ve received.

You have the opportunity to benefit from this same expert advice and get guidance on how to reduce server costs, manage energy consumption, and execute capacity planning for your data center construction project.

Best of all, you don’t need to wait for the seminar to travel to your area – you attend right from your desktop. Via our easy-to-navigate virtual seminar interface, you will experience all the learning and interaction you’d experience if you physically attend one of these seminars:

  • Participate in any of the four live videocasts designed to provide information on data center configuration and construction projects
  • Sponsor “booths” include detailed product information to be downloaded in a variety of interesting formats, plus live interaction with sponsor product experts
  • Download relevant and vendor-neutral content to refer to at a later date
  • Network in our attendee lounge with other data center focused IT pros
