London, England (PRWEB) February 28, 2007 — Building on the success of 2006, DatacenterDynamics returns to New York for a fifth year, on 20 March at the Hilton Hotel, Avenue of the Americas. The Conference is anticipated to be the largest ever gathering of US data center professionals (last year in New York over 480 senior data center professionals attended, this year more than 600 are expected).

As a focal point for end-users, consultants and solution providers, the DatacenterDynamics Conference & Expo has quickly established itself as New York’s premier gathering of professionals involved in the design, build and operational management of 24/7 mission critical IT facilities, from the datacenter to the LAN closet. It is an unrivalled education & networking opportunity for the industry, where the regular audience is characterized by senior representatives of the financial sector, trading firms, service enterprises and other Fortune 500 companies operating in the New York Metropolitan area.

Great to see a datacenter forum in London, these can be very effective mediums in terms of knowledge transfer, seeing what other people are doing in the datacenter space, to respond to the rising cost of power, the carbon factor, datacenter space issues etc. I’d love to attend, it would be great to see what the vendors are doing to help with this, as well as see what companies are doing in terms of process, or procedures to continue supplying IT and services to the business within the current datacenter constraints.

Will anyone talk about the carbon footprint?  In the UK some companies are asking their hosting companies what the carbon footprint of their datacenter is for their corporate and social responsibility statements.
