"Protecting Your Mission Critical Assets"

Members and Friends of the Critical Facilities Round Table,

Please accept this invitation to join us for our next quarterly meeting on Friday, June 24th at 8:30 AM at KAISER PERMANENTE in Walnut Creek. This event is made available to all critical facilities owners and operators at no cost for membership or attendance. Many thanks to Larry Vogen and Larry Geiger for providing the refreshments, the planning, and the facilities that have made this event possible.

This time we will focus on Asset Protection Planning and Technologies. We will hear from two consultants that specialize in Fire Protection, Security and Risk Management. They will provide us with detailed technical descriptions, case studies and analysis of the implementation of their most successful data center solutions.

Then, we will Tour Kaiser Permanente's Corporate Enterprise Data Center, including their 2N to 2N+1 electrical backup systems. We will also see two server areas which are managed differently for cooling. One area is laid out in a hot aisle/ cold aisle configuration and the other is in a different configuration.
