APC Sponsor Presentation: Save Money and Energy: APC`s New Solutions Provide Availability, Agility and Reduced TCO
Can your strategy to address growth and reconfiguration in the datacenter save capital and operating expenses? Systems with the highest electrical and operational efficiency are also the most flexible infrastructure growth execution tools, aligning the datacenter with your overall business goals.

Available today is a solution that can be used in multiple environments, and does not require a rip-out to enable high density systems. APC has developed an architecture that employs a hybrid approach to in-row, perimeter, and back-room, allowing them to peacefully coexist in any datacenter. The ability to grow the capacity or redundancy of the critical power system without major disruption to the data center has long been the cornerstone of APC InfraStruXure®. That same architecture is now available in an Ultra High Efficiency UPS and a Modular Power Distribution Unit (PDU). The new APC Symmetra® PX 250/500 and Modular PDU enable datacenter managers to reconfigure, expand and contract, without loss of efficiency or down time.

This webcast describes how APC has addressed the total power system through modular, scalable, hot-swap technology with the highest electrical efficiency available worldwide. Mitigation of risks to availability and operating expenditures are met with a simple, well-designed engineering approach to three-phase critical power and distribution.
Opening Keynote Address: Green Recovery: Your Company's Green Guide to Surviving the Recession—and Thriving in the Upturn
When the economy turns rough, many companies sideline their green business initiatives. That's a big mistake, says best-selling author Andrew Winston. No company, he argues, can afford to wait for the downturn to ease before going green. Start now and save energy, waste, and preserve precious capital – all while focusing your innovation efforts and strategic priorities. Join us for this fascinating Q and A about what you can and should do – now.
PC Power Management: Adoption, Methods, Barriers
As organizations look to reduce the financial costs and environmental impacts of operating IT, PC power management is proving quite popular: nearly half of companies are implementing and another half considering, according to a new Forrester survey. Yet current PC power management practices aren't enough. Simply asking users to power down PCs when not in use won't produce results. This informative session provides a reality check on current practices, barriers, and best practices. The session also includes a look at suites that let IT centrally provision, administer, and report on their PC power management initiatives.

Talk of green savings is so much hot air if not successfully turned into business-promoting action. Hear the front-line account of how IT leaders made green happen.
Server Clunkers for Cash: Get with the program

This panel will include an analyst, server labs analyst and a user talking about how building a green data center can provide incentives and efficiencies beyond saving bucks at the electric meter.
