It is common knowledge that the Chinese data centre industry is growing at a breakneck rate driven by regulatory pressure in the financial sector and demand for white space from cloud and Internet businesses in a country that has a vibrant domestic online economy. Based on the findings from our recent DatacenterDynamics Industry Census we now know the extent of this growth. With an expected 45.5% increase in power consumption and a 23% increase in the number of new racks over the next 12 months, the pressure to improve efficiency in the data centre will only increase.
Not too long ago data centre facilities were designed for constant loads and steady availability, now they are dynamic. The transition from single tier, to multi tier to dynamic tier. Application, hardware and physical infrastructure are following this rule: from servers that power down, to distributed applications, even to variable frequency drive fans. DCIM tools hold out the promise of monitoring in an holistic way the IT and facility infrastructure to enable the dynamic data centre.
DatacenterDynamics Mumbai is specifically designed to fill the knowledge and networking needs for both those responsible for the design, build an operation of IT facilities as well as key IT decision makers responsible for strategic decisions regarding capacity planning and technology investment.
