Global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions, Vertiv, is hosting a LinkedIn Live event, Trendspotting: The Track Ahead for the Data Centre Industry in 2021 on January 19th, 2021 at 17:00PM UAE time, reports ITREALMS.
This event brings together experts from around the globe with a combined 60+ years of experience in the IT, data centre and manufacturing world to share their regional insights into the recently announced 2021 data centre trends and discuss how these predictions resonate in their regions and impact their customers.
“We’ve seen first-hand with the pandemic how it has accelerated existing trends of technological adoption, and it’s clear the world is not going to return to its pre-pandemic state. With this global digital dependency, data centres have gained utility-like status but with great power comes great responsibility and sustainability and governance is becoming of rising importance” says Andrew Donoghue, global director of analyst relations for Vertiv and moderator of the event.
