Overview

In this course you will get comprehensive, vendor-neutral training led by a data center expert. You will discuss the most pertinent topics in the data center industry: power, cooling, energy efficiency and the "green" data center, management tools, and integrating IT Service Management. Using case studies and real-world examples to illustrate key points, this course provides the knowledge you need to more effectively operate your data center. You'll gain the skills to better assess data center efficiency, availability, and power and cooling issues, and you will gain substantive knowledge that you can take back to your data center to reduce costs and improve service to the IT users. Bring your data center electric bill and configuration with you, and we'll show you how much money you can save by implementing a more energy-efficient data center!
