LOCAL vendors attended a full-day ‘Partnership Enablement and Data Centre Solutions Training’ to learn about market trends and products.
The event, held in collaboration between Brusin Trading Company Sdn Bhd and Schneider Electric at The Rizqun International Hotel yesterday, also offered the vendors consultation on data centre planning.
Jeffrey Yap, Country President of Schneider Electric in Brunei Darussalam, explained in his opening remarks the changing market trends in IT data centre operations that are being influenced by modern Internet use and convergence of IT and mobile devices.
He highlighted that traffic trends from the use of mobile phones have been expanding over 23 per cent annually, which in turn raises demand for storage services such as Cloud and Co-location while also increasing connection points via smart phones, smart home, smart buildings, smart cities and smart nations.
