WHAT: This week, at the inaugural Blade.org Technology Symposium in New York, Emulex's vice president of technology, Alex Nicolson, is presenting a session that explores the evolution of the blade server platform. According to recent surveys, complexity in the data center is a top concern for CIOs, primarily due to run away growth of applications and servers. However, blade servers are presenting a solution platform that promises to help contain server sprawl. Speaking to the Symposium's audience of more than 350 data center executives and chief technologists, Nicolson will discuss some of the changing and evolving areas to consider, such as the future of blade server architectures, blade server component trends and the changing demands and requirements for data access and storage that are directly associated with this unique and important server platform.
