Melbourne, Australia – Energy Logic’s stop at the Hilton on the Park in Melbourne turned successful as industry and market leaders, IT professionals, consulting engineers and alliance partners came together to discuss and resolve top issues impacting the data center community in the region.
The symposium’s theme centers on the theme ‘Enabling Energy Efficient IT Infrastructure’, which key resource speaker Chris Mandahl further elaborated during the Energy Logic launch. Mandahl emphasized the Energy Logic's core message:
"To sum it up, the vendor-neutral approach strongly suggests data center managers and designers, IT equipment manufacturers and infrastructure providers should collaborate to truly optimize data center efficiency, and begin energy reduction initiatives with policies that encourage the use of energy-efficient technologies, specifically low-power processors and high-efficiency power supplies."
Ecosystem partner speakers Dylan Morison (Cisco), Stephen Hemsworth (Dell), David Yip (IBM) and VMWare discussed their respective energy-efficient solutions from best-in-class technologies and practices, virtualization and server consolidation.
The afternoon session highlighted presentations from Emerson Network Power’s solutions experts – Richard Wixon (racks), Mark Deguara (power), Mark Raicevich (cooling), Peter Simon (monitoring) and Ben Graham (service).
Presentations from the morning and afternoon sessions were further bolstered with the presence of ecosystem partner booths and solutions gallery in the vicinity. These provisions gave delegates a thorough understanding on today’s best-in-class technologies. The event concluded with a ‘Ask the Experts’ session. Delegates were given the opportunity to ask questions, which the speakers readily answered.
The conference was hosted by Emerson Network Power, the global leader in enabling Business-Critical Continuity™. The Energy Logic event marks the 4th year of the Emerson symposium series, which has reached over 5,000 IT&T professionals around Asia Pacific to date.
