The IT industry is facing a serious dilemma: to stay with the co-location option or to build their own. More often than not the end-users find it difficult to see the business case for building their own datacentre with an ever-increasing storage need.

Our conference will provide a unique opportunity of detailed guidelines through the process of making the decision between data co-location or rental and the new build construction of a datacentre, bringing you the latest industry case studies from sophisticated as well as from entry level private and public sector end-users.

We have invited leading ICT executives from organisations including Lloyds TSB, Claranet Group, Telecity Group, Telecom Italia and The European Commission Directorate General Joint Research Centre to reveal the latest strategy updates on how to overcome data centre challenges in business, facilities, infrastructure and operational areas.
