CEO Pat Bodin To Speak At Financial Services Technology Summit
|
Firefly CEO Pat Bodin will be leading a workshop on Data Center Availability and
the Unified Physical Infrastructure at the Financial Services Technology Summit,
June 3-5, 2008, in New York City.
This workshop examines how decisions made today on the network physical layer affect the ability of the data center to scale and meet tomorrow’s requirements. It will present a virtual walk through the data center systems and networking areas. It will also outline the relationship and mapping of key physical layer elements to recentralized, logical computing environments. We will discuss how the physical infrastructure architecture leverages next-generation switches and requires advanced physical layer infrastructure elements to support them.
The workshop will answer some of most pressing data center questions today:
- What is the impact of cooling on application availability?
- What impact does structure cabling have on performance within new I/O architectures?
- How can the placement of my structure enclosures materially reduce my overall cost?
- How can cabling media add a significant level of security to my data center?
Firefly can help you answer questions about your own data center architecture. Firefly's
new Data Center Architecture Workshop service (DCAW) is an interactive workshop designed to help senior DC
engineers develop a foundational blueprint for architecting next-generation DC services
