Indian data center technology expert to address global meet
To be kicked off in Las Vegas on Apr 28, Data Center World, the premier global meet for data center managers, will draw upon the knowledge and experience of global experts to offer real solutions for data centers.
Dasgupta, who led Oracle Software's India operations as MD between 1998 and 2005, is the founder and managing director, GreenField Software.
His expertise lies in creating next generation data center technologies, for cloud infrastructures to mitigate risks of Data Centre failures, while helping control capital costs and reduce operating expenses, will make a thought provoking presentation and present a New Management Scorecard with financial and operational Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for achieving high availability in leaner and greener Data Center.
He informed that the Data Centers are home to mission critical applications and data.
They are designed to be fail-safe with multi level back up in power, computers, networks and air-conditioning virtually turning them to be energy guzzlers, consuming over 2 percent of utility-produced electrical power in the United States and European Union and growing at over 15 percent per annum, he said.
While a few measures on Data Center energy efficiency have become de-facto standards, Dasgupta will be proposing a wider range of KPIs that mirror the daily objectives of Data Center Managers, IT and Infrastructure and Operations staff.
Just as Balanced Scorecards had a profound impact on driving overall economic value of enterprises that use them, Dasgupta suggested that Data Centers can be better aligned with business goals through Scorecard-based Data Center Infrastructure Management software.
It is now well established that absence or lack of proper measurements are the main causes of wasted capital expenditure, higher operating costs, increased space use and even Data Center outages, he noted.
The conference that will feature over 65 sessions, led by well known industry leaders will share best practices and practical solutions to some of the biggest data center and facilities management challenges, including Data Center Infrastructure Management, power and cooling, data center builds and design, disaster recovery, and cloud.
According to the Bureau of Energy Efficiency-Confederation of Indian Industry study on Data Center Energy Efficiency, the minimum energy saving potential of adopting the latest Data Center technologies is between 25 to 30 percent.
Of the savings, while nearly 60 percent comes from server-related efficiencies like virtualization, there’s another 7 percent that may be derived from more efficient cooling technologies, Dasgupta said.
