DCD Internet covers the full “mud to cloud” infrastructure stack and eco-system in the internet-facing, web-scale, third-platform, cloud data center.
Driven by all-things 3rd Platform and Web 3.0 – IoT, cloud, mobile, and big data/analytics – the conference program focuses on the movement toward the full-stack – physical and logical. Industry experts will uncover the impact of these next-generation IT foundation technologies and the role of the application optimized software defined infrastructure of SDDC, SDN, cloud, open-source, and hyperconvergence among others.
Hear from visionary thought-leaders and innovators leading the way toward the true “digital enterprise” in the ZettaByte era and discover how to drive costs out of the IT and data center infrastructure, reduce risk, and quicken time-to-market agility and pace.
Do not miss this chance to gain high-value perspectives and learn about the tools and techniques that will accelerate your smart
data center and cloud infrastructure and operations strategy.
