Many data center owners are taking a modular or phased construction approach to reduce the costs of design, construction, and operation and build time. This approach allows companies to make a smaller initial investment and to delay some capital expenditures by scaling capacity with business growth. However, these benefits bring new challenges. Data center infrastructure experts from Starline, ABB and 451 Research participate in a panel session moderated by Uptime Institute to discuss how the drive for scalability is changing the landscape of data center design and operations. This is a recording of a presentation at Uptime Institute's Executive Symposium: Las Vegas in 2017. Moderator: Kevin Heslin, Chief Editor, Uptime Institute Panelists: Doug Kindig, Regional Sales Manager, Starline Dave Sterlace, Global Head of Technology for Data Center Industry Sector, ABB Jeff Fidacaro, Senior Analyst, Datacenter Technologies, 451 Research
