• Keys to accelerate ROI

• Improving energy efficiency

• The versatility of the cloud in a critical environment

Despite the impact of economic crisis in the Portuguese industry, Portugal is one of the main destinations of the world in the segment of outsourcing. This reflects the adaptability of the local data centre industry, about to be shaken further by the opening of one of the largest data centres in Europe.

The main concerns of this industry revolve around improving existing infrastructure. On one hand, it is of paramount importance to improve the energy efficiency of facilities, both to limit the environmental impact of data centres and to reduce energy consumption. Furthermore, operational and processes improvements will increase productivity and accelerate the return on the investments made.

Converged DatacenterDynamics Lisbon 2013, the first event of DCD in Portugal, will allow attendees to discover industry trends, through presentations by experts, national and international, case studies and innovative concepts as the DCIM (Data Centre Infrastructure Management).

The event will provide attendees with the necessary tools to take advantage of existing infrastructure, either through different models of cloud, virtualized environments, equipment consolidation or infrastructure monitoring. Modularity will also be analysed as the most affordable solution for creating or expanding data centres.

Besides attending technical conferences that form the backbone of the event, participants will also have the opportunity to exchange experiences and make networking with key professionals of data centre industry.
