Are financial firms continuing to refresh their data center hardware? Do container data centers or renewable energy fit into Wall Street’s plans for technology infrastructure? Those were among the topics explored at the recent
Waters Power [1] conference in New York City. The event was organized by
Waters Online [2], which tracks technology in the securities industry. In this video, Waters news editor Emily Fraser talks to Tabb Group’s Kevin McPartland, who summarizes the discussion from a panel he moderated on new data center technologies. This video runs about 4 minutes, 30 seconds.
