What: The data center of the future is closer than you think.  It could include virtualization, cloud computing or energy conservation initiatives.  In this executive session, Logicalis and HP will help IT pros look years forward to envision how a converged infrastructure can deliver any application, anywhere, anytime.  The converged infrastructure is the new architecture enabling CIOs to thrive despite unpredictability.  Logicalis knows that taking a data center from strategy to the realization of ideals is a process, and it will share best practices learned through years of extensive experience with this audience, offering advice on a range of topics from aligning technology needs to how to get the financing needed to meet those requirements.

Quote: “These seminars are designed specifically with the IT director in mind.  At Logicalis, we know that technology is the key to a successful business, and planning today for a data center that can operate at peak efficiency tomorrow and into the future is crucial to meeting a company’s goals, both in the short and long term.  Through these seminars, we plan to give IT professionals a glimpse into the future, and the tools they need today to plan for the changes that will have to be implemented tomorrow,” says Kevin Gruneisen, Logicalis’ Vice President of Data Center Solutions.
