Abstract: The colocation and IDC industry is hot right now - literally. As data centers fill up, power and cooling capacity are exhausted before the space runs out. Why is this happening? Who is to blame? What can we do about it? And, most importantly, what does the future hold for the data center, in a world where blade servers use enough electricity to power a small town, and routers put out more BTUs than a pizza oven? Moderator Daniel Golding brings together vendors and data center operators to hash out one of the most \"electrifying\" issues facing the Internet industry.
