Infrastructure and Operations Agenda

Symposium/ITxpo 2009 is organised according to twelve IT leadership tracks. Each track is designed to address the key priorities and challenges you face. The Symposium/ITxpo role experience includes the targeted sessions and networking opportunities you need to transform your organisation's IT strategies.

Combine virtualisation, Green IT and Cloud Computing – and throw in a recession – and you've got a catalyst for huge expectations of cost savings delivered by infrastructure and operations leaders. Servers, storage, and the operation and management of such, are the core of the data centre. However, technology and the management of the data centre and its leaders are changing. Data centres need to be flexible, modular and increasingly adaptable to changing business needs and economic pressures. This track focuses on the changes required in the data centre as technologies such as Virtualisation, Green IT and Cloud Computing change and mature.

For I&O Leaders, Symposium/ITxpo 2009 will answer:
  • How can I best utilise virtualisation, consolidation, cloud computing, ITIL and other key I&O trends to lower costs, improve service and increase agility? I can't afford to move forward on all fronts – so which ones do I do now and which ones to do I defer?
  • How do I demonstrate and articulate the value of servers, storage, PCs – all things infrastructure – to my business leaders?
  • What technologies can be employed now to make existing data centres "greener"? What emerging technology trends will have an impact on data centre design and operations?
