PREVIEW DATACENTRES IRELAND 2017
DATACENTRES IRELAND – THE NETWORKING EVENT FOR THE DATACENTRE AND CLOUD COMMUNITIES
The quality and quantity of the conference programme, speakers and exhibitors at this year’s DataCentres Ireland makes this the largest and most complete event for all those interested in the dynamic Irish datacentre and cloud hosting sector. DataCentres Ireland will again be held at the RDS (Royal Dublin Society),
Dublin on 22–23 November, 2017. Funded through the exhibition DataCentres Ireland is free to attend. However this does not mean the event compromises on the quality of speaker, or the breadth and depth of the programme delivered. “This year’s event is the biggest yet,” says event director, Hugh Robinson.
“The multi-stream two-day conference programme is packed with over 50 industry experts as well as business leaders from Ireland and internationally.” Speakers and panellists include: Tanya Duncan, MD, Interxion Ireland,
Gary Watson, general manager, Keppel DataCentres Ireland, Jerry Sweeny, CEO, Cork Internet Exchange, Garry Connolly, founder, Host In Ireland, Barry Lowry, CIO, Irish Government.
DataCentres Ireland offers attendees a great opportunity to meet, interact
and network with those driving the Irish market. At the time of going to print, the DataCentres Ireland Exhibition had over
50 confirmed exhibitors representing hundreds of companies and thousands of products, services and solutions… And with just 10 stands still available, it is forecast to be a sell-out event. Some of the features of this year’s DataCentres Ireland include: • GDPR & Brexit Conference – Sponsored by GDPR Awareness Coalition; • Chill Out & Networking Zone – Sponsored by Host In Ireland; • 10th EUREKA Conference – Hosted by EUREKA Initiative; • Free Networking Reception – Hosted by DataCentres Ireland.

Sunbird Software’s latest release is designed to provide data centre managers with enhanced tools that enable easy and agile responses to their most common data centre management challenges. The global provider of software solutions says modern data centres are facing increasingly stringent security requirements and regulations in addition to efficiency initiatives and uptime goals and that its Power IQ Data Centre Infrastructure Management (DCIM) Monitoring Release 6.0 is the answer. "To keep pace with these demands, today's data centre managers need to not only monitor the performance of devices in their data centres but who has access to them,” says president Herman Chan. “The features and enhancements in Release 6.0 help data centre managers save time and reduce costly human error in both their daily tasks and their efforts to protect against physical security threats, especially for edge data centres and co-located facilities." Certainly one of the main issues for all data centres is security and compliance and Power IQ 6.0 builds on the physical cabinet and row/aisle containment security features to support compatibility with third-party door locks with RFID card readers, providing an additional layer of physical security. Managers are able to physically lock down specific area to prevent unauthorised access. Smart cards can also be created, assigned and deactivated in Power IQ to provide users with the appropriate level of access at the door level. "Physical security is a top-of-mind concern for
many of our customers and basic, low-level safeguards are no longer sufficient to meet the needs of modern data centers," says director of product management James Cerwinski."The
electronic access support for smart cards and granular access permissions in Release 6.0 provide organisations with the data they need to mitigate risks and to ensure security and compliance." According to Sunbird, its new release simplifies and accelerates large-scale PDU deployments with bulk configuration enhancements by enabling users to set PDUs to maintenance mode or decommission and rescan PDUs in bulk to ensure accurate PDU health status reporting and prevent unplanned downtime without the need to configure each device individually, among other features. "Sunbird continues to make great strides toward
its vision of a complete, multivendor DCIM solution that allows data center managers and operators to perform their daily tasks with ease," says research director at IDC, Jennifer Cooke. "Features such as bulk PDU configuration and the ability to centrally control electronic RFID door locks from within the modern GUI save time, simplify data center management and address some of the common challenges in today's data center environments."
