Steve Brill, who founded the Uptime Institute, was one of the first people to identify the power and cooling issues facing large data centers, and he quickly gathered a lot of big names to support his Santa Fe, NM-based organization.
This year he is bringing the institute’s annual symposium to New York, home of several big power consumers, including financial services firms April 13-16.

The program will include experts from HP, IBM, Sun and an evening address by NY Times Columnist Thomas Friedman, author most recently of Hot, Flat and Crowded.

The Institute is a global leader in technology and green – if you are at all interested in these issues, take a look at its web site and the program in New York.
