The datacentre challenge: How to cut costs, increase capacity and reduce complexity

This Computing web seminar examines the best technologies to make your datacentre more cost-effective

The datacentre is at the heart of successful IT delivery for every organisation – whether your systems occupy a purpose built facility or fit into a quiet corner of the office. But datacentres face a growing set of challenges – costs are spiralling as energy prices rise; complexity is holding back business flexibility and physical space restrictions are hindering growth. IT managers are under increasing pressure to get more from their existing resources.

Many organisations are considering deploying technologies such as blade servers in their datacentres in an attempt to address these issues. As costs fall and processing capacity grows they are becoming a more viable option for datacentres – but are they the right choice for you?

In this Computing web seminar, in association with Dell, we examine the best strategies for the modern datacentre. Our panel of experts will discuss the relative merits of the latest technologies and share some best practices on how to make the most of your datacentre.
