DMTF and SNIA sponsor Alliance Symposium, Green Summit
Next week in San Jose, the Alliance Partner Technical Symposium will held at the Dolce Hayes Mansion from Tuesday 25th of March through the 28th of March 2008.
This year marks the first Green Summit that will be part of the agenda. The Green Summit is the first technical summit of the multiple organizations collaborating to manage the power and cooling aspects of data center equipment through standard models and interfaces. This day-long summit will include presentations from each group and include time for creative discussions and organization of further collaboration. The participants will include the Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA), the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF) and The Green Grid (TGG).
On of the hats I wear at the DMTF is the Vice President of Alliances, so I am very excited at the broad participation we are getting for this conference. It should be a week of great cooperation and information sharing between all the groups. Thursday is dedicated to presentations from all the alliance partners including the Open Grid Forum, the Trusted Computing Group, the Printer Working Group and the Blade Systems Alliance.
If you are interested in attending, registration is still open and there are even hotel rooms available.
