Members and Friends of the Critical
Facilities Round Table,
Please accept this invitation to join us for
our next quarterly meeting on Friday, March 25th at 8:00 AM
at SUN MICROSYSTEMS in Silicon Valley. This event is made available to all critical
facilities owners and operators at no cost for membership or attendance.
Many thanks to Sun and to Cushman & Wakefield's Roger Gonzalez and Dirk van
Ulden for providing the foods and refreshments, the planning, and the facilities
that have made this event possible.
In the morning we will focus
on "Cutting Edge Data Center Cooling
Solutions". We will hear from four
different technology vendors, consultants and R&D program managers
about brand new and currently available cooling technologies for high density
blade server environments. They will provide us with detailed technical
descriptions, case studies and economic analyses of realistic cooling
solutions in the most challenging of environments.
