Session Title: The Next Generation Datacentre
The datacentre is being tasked with providing improved services, at a lower cost, while simultaneously reducing emissions. At the same time, new application hosting models are being offered, often directly, to the business. Ensuring you are providing competitive and compelling datacentre services is a key objective of this session. In this session we cover the key resources, technologies and methodologies being used to deliver effective next generation datacentres. This session is also a key session to set the context for the datacentre session later in the day.
9:45am - 10:30am
Session Title: The Next Generation Datacentre II
Delving deeper into the objectives covered in the previous datacentre session, and examines the management of the key information asset in any business - its information. Information is the outcome of applications interacting with data unique to the organisation. The value of that information varies over time. In this session we cover the management of that information, as well as countering the risks of that information.

Session Title: Cross site Service Recovery
As more and more production applications in the datacentre are virtualised, protecting these applications from business disruption with appropriate service levels is evermore important. This session will discuss the challenges and position the capabilities of VMWare Site Recovery Manager as a technical enabler for effective cross site service recovery for the virtualised environment.
11:45 - 12:30pm
Session Title: Data Centre Communication
Server virtualisation, server consolidation and environmental considerations place additional requirements on the underlying network infrastructure within a Datacentre. These evolving requirements need design and delivery of a consolidated, virtualised and flexible network connectivity for the delivery of the Ethernet and Fibre Channel services alike. Application Network Services and Cisco's expanding range of datacentre network solutions provides an unparalleled solution in terms of scale and value in the datacentre network infrastructure market. Come to this session to see how Cisco and Data#3 can provide a high-speed solution with 10Gbps server connections today whilst positioning your organisation to consolidate its traditionally separate data and fibre channel networks into a single, ubiquitous datacentre network.
1:45 - 2:30pm
Session Title: Managing a Heterogeneous Server Environment
