“We’re excited to bring our dedicated, passionate community back together in person this summer to learn about the latest trends and technologies impacting the data center, facility and IT infrastructure industry. The last year showed us just how critically important the data center is to the functioning of our economy, health care, government, education, and first responders, and it’s more important than ever for the industry to meet to discuss how changes will affect how we manage, analyze, secure, and use data moving forward,” said Brian Gillooly, Content Director, Data Center World. “We have an outstanding learning program planned. Our exhibitors are excited to showcase their technologies. And after a hiatus due to the pandemic, we are all looking forward to re-connecting with colleagues. Additionally, guided by a detailed set of measures known as AllSecure, Data Center World aims to deliver the highest levels of hygiene and safety at the event.”
