I am pleased to moderate a thought leadership panel at 7x24 Exchange Orlando on June 12. 2012.

10:30 A.M.
PANEL: Capacity Planning and Asset Management

Data Centers exist to provide the environment for IT assets to support the current and future needs of the business. This panel featuring capacity planning & asset management executives from Facebook, Goldman Sachs and Microsoft will discuss a range of topics from asset life cycle management, how the groups work with their data center teams for internal and external requirements to run their IT services, and best practices to consider adopting. Collaboration and knowledge sharing is required in companies to manage capacity, and this is a unique opportunity to hear from three innovators on a topic you’re all familiar with and is essential for future data center services.

If you'll notice one of the things we were able to do is get executives from Goldman Sachs, Microsoft, and Facebook to discuss an important topic. It just so happens all the panel members are women. Women who own the issue of asset management in their data center operations. I've had the pleasure of having conversations with each of these people and knew when we nominated the talk, who were the people working on innovative ideas.

I am looking forward to moderate a thought provoking session that will discuss an important topic that rarely gets discussed.
