More about this edition's speakers...

OVHcloud

OVHcloud is a cloud provider offering Dedicated Servers, VMware® based Hosted Private Cloud, and OpenStack-based Public Cloud to over 1.4 million customers worldwide. They have been an innovator in data center design and management for nearly two decades.

• They are vertically integrated: they build their own data centers and servers, own and operate their own network and are responsible for all of the maintenance and support for their customers. They are truly an end-to-end provider.

• They have one of the lowest Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) ratings in the industry. One of the main reasons is the use of their patented liquid cooling system. Cold water consistently runs through a maze on the CPU–cold water goes in and warm water comes out. This eliminates the need for conventional air conditioning–allowing them to pass on the savings to our customers.

• They are a pure-play infrastructure provider. They will maintain your servers and ensure high availability, performance and connectivity so you can concentrate on building your business.
