The
Value of Green IT – Where are CIOs seeing
the biggest pay-off? |
| |
Philip
Carter, Associate Research Director, IT
Services Research, IDC Asia/Pacific |
|
|
This
session will look at market forces,
regulations and primary drivers for the
adoption of Green IT in the Asia/Pacific
region. It will include examples best practice
deployment case studies, highlighting where
CIOs are using Green technology to not only
cut operating costs, but also to positively
impact the environment in terms of electricity
consumption & IT equipment recycling
initiatives. It will also provide insights
into the buying behavior of Asia/Pacific
companies with respect to Green IT, based on
CIO interviews captured from the IDC
Asia/Pacific Green Poll. Finally, IDC will
share some of the results of the first phase
of the Green Index - an assessment of the
'Greenness' of the leading ICT players and
their activities relating to Green IT in the
region. |

Energy
Effectiveness in the Data Centre |
| |
Durgadutt
Nedungadi, Director – Marketing &
Alliances, Technology Solutions Group, HP
India |
|
|
Maximum
energy efficiency in the data center can only
be achieved by addressing all operational
aspects, from the data center infrastructure
to energy efficiently platforms. This session
will describe the key components for balancing
energy consumption with performance, provide
specific examples and best practices, and
discuss how to achieve an integrated approach. |

Green
IT: Virtualization & Automation 2.0 |
| |
Sandeep
Menon, Country Head, Novell India |
| |
Virtualization
is gaining momentum in data centers around the
world. More than just a key technology towards
Green computing, perception and expectations
of virtualization now encompasses the bigger
picture of Data Center Automation. This
session will walk through, with live
demonstrations, the virtualization &
automation solutions from Novell. |

Virtual
Protocol Interconnect (VPI): Solve Your Key
Data Center Connectivity Issues and Get Green |
| |
Nimrod
Gindi, Director Corporate Strategy, Mellanox
Technologies |
| |
The
demands on data center I/O connectivity
continue to increase with the deployment of
multi-core CPUs, virtualization, networked
storage, clustered databases, and low-latency
applications in financial services, health
services, Web 2.0, and the commercial high
performance computing sector. Multiple
interconnect protocols and fabrics exist to
provide the best-of-breed connectivity for
certain applications, but the ideal solution
is a flexible I/O adapter solution that can
address all workloads. In addition, data
centers are driving to replace multiple slower
speed adapters with one higher speed adapter
to save power, cost, cabling and complexity
while not compromising lost functionality and
performance. |

| Journey to designing an innovative & energy efficient data centre of the future |
Energy Optimisation Workshop |
| Altaf Girkar, Business Development Manager – Server, Storage and Datacenter Services, HP |
R Ravichandran, Director - Sales, Intel South Asia |
|
Today’s new reality is that the data centre does not support the business—it powers the business. Data centre risks are now business risks, and data centre opportunities are now business opportunities. And business success is inextricably linked to data centre strategy. However, many businesses with last-generation data centres are facing obstacles—skyrocketing energy costs, infrastructure and capacity restrictions, and limited power availability—that could impede business success. Computing-demand growth is exacerbating the increase in global energy use; and data centres, in particular—because of hardware cooling requirements—are the focus of attention. To narrow the gap between the demands of computing performance and the adoption of energy-efficiency |
This workshop will show how accelerating infrastructure refresh can reduce your costs while reducing your carbon footprint. ROI analysis will be used to quantify the potential efficiencies that can be gained by deploying servers based on the latest Intel Xeon processors, and also illustrate how HP can bring additional benefits from chip to chiller in the data center |
