Global Data Center Services Provider CyrusOne CTO, Kevin Timmons, Scheduled to Speak at Gartner's Las Vegas Data Center Conference

Global data center services provider CyrusOne, a wholly owned subsidiary of Cincinnati Bell (NYSE: CBB), announced today that CTO Kevin Timmons is scheduled to speak at the Gartner (News - Alert) Data Center Conference in Las Vegas, Dec. 3-6.

Timmons' presentation, "Avoiding the Ultimate Gamble-Building Your Own New Data Center," is slated for 1:45 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 4, at the Venetian Resort Hotel and Casino, Ballroom B. Presentation content will center on making enduring and cost-effective data center decisions that enable and protect the business today while allowing for the inevitable changes the business must respond to tomorrow. Timmons will be joined by Robert Adamo, director, Western Region Sales, Nirvanix, the leading provider of enterprise-class cloud storage services.

"Colocation delivers enterprise-level stability, security, and uptime with the flexibility a CIO needs to respond to changing software, hardware, geographic, and business needs," said Timmons. "For a company to build its own data center today, a CIO would need a crystal ball to see the future in order to avoid unnecessary investment risks, such as infrastructure purchases that quickly become outdated or building a dedicated facility that is over- or underutilized."

CyrusOne (News - Alert) specializes in highly reliable enterprise data center colocation, engineering facilities with the highest power redundancy (2N architecture) and power-density infrastructure required to deliver excellent availability. Its Sky for the Cloud™ interconnection and peering offering affords customers freedom of choice about how to build out their capacity.

"The cloud requires redundancy in data center power infrastructure, connectivity, and capacity on demand, and it creates increased pressure on data center performance," said Adamo. "Partnering with data center colocation companies like CyrusOne has enabled better backup and archival performance for our business and a substantial reduction in network-connection expenses."
