In addition to reducing carbon emissions, "green IT" can have a positive effect on an organization's bottom line – a feature of particular importance during a global economic crisis. Dynamic infrastructure based on virtualization and other modern technologies can lower power consumption, improve infrastructure utilization, and reduce datacenter operating costs while improving efficiency. Additional benefits include greater flexibility, better scalability, and increased productivity.
Bringing together industry experts, analysts, and leaders, the IDC Storage, Virtualization and Datacenter Roadshow 2010 gives participants a unique opportunity to share experience, ideas, and best practices and to learn how virtualization and modern storage solutions can lead to more efficient IT infrastructure and data management.
Visiting 20 cities in the rapidly developing Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), Middle East, and Africa region, the IDC Virtualization, Storage, and Datacenters Roadshow 2010 offers a comprehensive look at current data storage and management issues, with a focus on the most critical themes, such as:
