| Key-Note Presentation - Empowering the Future of Connectivity Renout van Hove ; Multipotentialite, co-Author of #Obsessed - Founder of Growthagent.eu, finds himself comfortable at the intersection of Advertising, Data ecosystems, Privacy and Technology Some topics from the presentation ; How AI is conditioning all of us 100’s of times a day? The dark side of AI, ethical risks, what is fake AI? The different forms and identities of AI and translation of the different forms of AI to building solutions & connectivity: Network optimization: the use of AI and machine learning algorithms to analyze network traffic patterns and optimize bandwidth allocation, ensuring a seamless experience for their customers. Bridge to other industries (eg windmills) Predictive maintenance: AI to analyze network performance data, identify potential issues or failures before they occur. Customer service: AI-driven chatbots and virtual assistants can be used to handle customer inquiries, providing quick and efficient responses to common questions. Supply chain management: streamline the supply chain, optimising inventory levels and delivery schedules. (This can result in reduced operational costs and improved efficiency) Personalized marketing: By analyzing customer data, competitors can develop targeted marketing campaigns using AI algorithms. This can lead to increased customer engagement and higher conversion rates. Security and fraud detection: AI can be employed to monitor network activity and identify potential security threats or fraud in real-time. This enables companies to act swiftly and protect their customers' data. |
| Leviton - Eddie McGinley "Evolution of Data Centers: From the Cloud to Edge" The Data Center landscape is rapidly changing, and businesses are looking for innovative ways to meet the growing demand for real-time data processing and storage. As the cloud has become more ubiquitous, there is now an increasing focus on edge data centers as a means of delivering faster, more responsive computing and storage closer to where it is needed. We will explore the evolution of data centers from the cloud to the edge, discussing the emergence of edge computing as a critical component of the IT infrastructure, the challenges, and opportunities that edge data centers present, and the latest technologies and strategies for this evolving area. |
| Legrand Data Center Solutions - Niek van der Pas The EU Green Deal: Impact for Data Centres This presentation will cover the transposition of the voluntary best practices of the EU Code of Conduct into the new EU taxonomy framework and the forthcoming amendments to the Energy Efficiency Directive. It will focus on the impact of these developments on the infrastructural design of the data centre and on the reporting obligations. The Taxonomy Framework was just released in April and the changes to the EE Directive are likely to come into effect early next year. The directive and regulation refer extensively to European and international standards. The presentation therefore covers these standards and shows the relationship with the latest version of the TS 50600-5-1 maturity model. This presentation will also show how Legrand’s commitment to continued innovation and bringing best of breed solutions to market directly supports the EU Energy Efficiency Directive; whether through its recently announced 4th Generation of intelligent PDUs, Rear Door Cooling or Cabinets and Containment. These solutions will be available on our stand together with our local technical experts. We look forward to welcoming you. |
| Conteg - Marek Schiller OUTTEG / Industrial - FREE STANDING CABINETS The outdoor double-walled cabinet outTEG OMR provides better thermal regulation of installed components through the natural air flow between the walls. outTEG OMR free-standing outdoor cabinets represent a suitable solution for projects with high requirements on stable in-rack climate. They are specifically designed for mounting onto a column. Double-walled case design safeguards the installed components from all-weather as well as from vandalism thanks to the cabinet's compact structure which prevents removal of individual components from the outside. For demanding climatic conditions, the side panel variants can be modified to allow the installation of fans or air-conditioning units. Resistance to weather is ensured mainly by the AlMg3 alloy used for the cabinet case and the applied finish of polyester powder coating with UV protection. Additional protection is provided by the stainless frame. |
| Corning - Peter De Mûelenaere EDGE™ Distribution System - A New Path to Speed and Sustainability Corning, a global leader in optical communications innovations, has launched a pre-engineered data center solution called the EDGE Distribution System. The system is designed to meet the ever-growing demand for information processing in the cloud and Datacenters. It shortens installation time for server cabling by up to 70%, addresses shortages in skilled labor, and provides up to a 55% reduction in carbon footprint. Initial deployments at hyperscale data centers in the U.S., Europe, and Asia have shown that the EDGE Distribution System can lower total installed cost by up to 20%. |
