Driven by all-things 3rd Platform and Web 3.0 – IoT, cloud, mobile, and big data/analytics – the conference program focuses on the movement toward the full-stack – physical and logical. Industry experts will uncover the impact of these next-generation IT foundation technologies and the role of the application optimized software defined infrastructure of SDDC, SDN, cloud, open-source, and hyper-convergence among others.

Hear from visionary thought-leaders and innovators leading the way toward the true “digital enterprise” in the ZettaByte era and discover how to drive costs out of the IT and data center infrastructure, reduce risk, and quicken time-to-market agility and pace.

Do not miss this chance to gain high-value perspectives and learn about the tools and techniques that will accelerate your smart data center and cloud infrastructure and operations strategy.

“DatacenterDynamics is one of 2 shows a year that I never miss if I can help it. It leads where others follow in industry trends.

When it is in the heart of Silicon Valley how can you not have great speakers/topics and sessions?”

Andy Broer, Senior Manager Data Center Operations, Box.net

“DCD provides a vision into the future of... next generation data centers architected around Open Compute, SDDC, Hyper-Convergence and Converged Infrastructure.”Vincent Pelly, Principal Consultant, PTS Consulting
