The British Computing Society (BCS) is hosting an evening of discussion called “Measuring Up? Metrics and your Data Centre”. In the quest for metrics that describe what we do in the data centre and how effectively we do it, PUE has been adopted as the first simple metric to describe the inefficiency in getting power from the utility feed to the IT equipment. So what's next? PUE is not and cannot be the end of the story. What do we need to define and describe the "useful work" done by a data centre and what are our next steps?

Come along to this event to listen to opinions from the industry's leading figures on what they feel is the best way to proceed with the development of metrics. Members of The Green Grid receive a 50% discount on tickets which usually cost £40+VAT. For more information on the event and tickets, please visit http://www.bcs.org/server.php?show=conEvent.5136
