Tier44 CEO to Speak at Darnell's Energy Summit on Software Defined Management of Data Centers
Santa Clara, CA, September 23, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Tier44, the leading provider of data center management extensions to ServiceNow, today announced that Clemens Pfeiffer, President and CEO, will be a featured speaker at Darnell's Energy Summit, taking place September 29 and 30 in Los Angeles, CA at the Ayers Hotel.
Titled, "2.3 The Value of Software Defined Management for Data Centers", this session will be held on Tuesday, September 29 between 2:30pm and 5:30pm.
This session will look at data centers and how "software defined management" will change their power consumption characteristics and ultimately the value and demand towards the power grid. As todays data centers have everything turned on 24x7, providing the perfect base load for a utility company, a software defined future will change this as soon as applications (and associated power consumption) are moved between various data centers within less than 5 minutes. As equipment can be turned off and on automatically in the software defined world, the impact is dramatic as data center power consumption can go from almost zero watts to peak watts and vice versa in a very short time. This can happen for pricing purposes, energy efficiency purposes, application reliability purposes or as requested and incentivized by utility companies and grid operators during grid congestion and generation issues.
Tier44's patented software defined management solution – "Holistic Data Center Management"(R) – directly integrated and certified with ServiceNow ITSM, monitors data centers, shifts and sheds applications and capacity on demand, integrates with the existing IT and facility infrastructure and links with the energy market for pricing feeds and adjustment requests. This ultimately increases application reliability, reduces power consumption and can turn data centers into "negawatt" generating Virtual Power Plants. To learn more, please attend the summit or contact Tier44 for a one-on-one demonstration.
