and Expo, at London’s old Billingsgate, will bring together some of the
about Rittal
world’s keenest minds to share their expertise with an international
DatacenterDynamics
Converged Europe
audience of senior ICT and datacentre professionals.
Conference and Expo
Rittal will be there to highlight solutions to diverse factors
confronting companies who design, install and operate Data Centres, by
providing efficient, flexible and scalable solutions that are prepared for
the tasks of tomorrow.
The team says it will be offering a myriad of solutions to visitors,
providing advice and expertise about the design and effective operation
of data centres of all sizes.
Visitors can explore how to build-in energy efficiency, the value
of modularity, and how to future-proof projects, whether this involves
installing a few racks or several hundred servers.
Clive Partridge from Rittal says, “Rittal – The System is a concept that offers customers a co-ordinated approach to
supporting development projects. Starting with close inspection and analysis of a customer’s requirements – which may
extend to planning the entire data centre – we can then offer solutions based on precise-fit, efficient, IT-infrastructure
components. These range from robust racks for server and network technology, to efficient power supply and protection, and
energy-saving, climate control units.”
Rittal’s s enior team will also be speaking at this year’s conference, using real-life examples to explore how working at the
edges of technology can be the catalyst for invention.
Visitors will be shown how, for example, in one high-density computing project, Rittal’s engineers challenged theoretical
design limits, physically stressed products to the limit, and ensured resilience and security was at the forefront of all the
design decisions. While not everyone will use high-density computing, the lessons learned in developing such systems will
benefit any data centre director/manager, helping to reduce operating costs without compromising per formance.
Find out more by getting along to the DatacenterDynamics Converged Europe Conference and Expo, November 7-8, 2017,
at Old Billingsgate London, stand 20 and also on stand 7 in the OCP area.
