Corporate Sustainability Leader Power Assure to Take the Stage at FiRe 2010
FRIDAY HARBOR, WA, Apr 29, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
Strategic News Service is proud to announce that Power Assure has
been selected as a 2010 FiReStarter company, to be featured at its
annual Future in Review technology conference May 11th at the
Terranea Resort. FiReStarter companies are selected based on their
potential to bring positive change to the world, and are showcased
during the conference, both at an exclusive investor reception and in
panels throughout FiRe 2010.
Power Assure develops and delivers data center infrastructure
monitoring and dynamic capacity management software. This critical
business automation software dramatically reduces energy use and
carbon emissions in commercial, corporate, and government data
centers. The company's software platform intelligently monitors and
manages data center server capacity in real time, maintaining
required service levels at optimum efficiency and lowest total cost.
"Our ability to monitor the infrastructure of a data center and
optimize server energy use by automating capacity management is the
key enabler towards transforming the world's data centers from an
'Always On' model to an 'Always Available' model," said Brad Wurtz,
CEO of Power Assure and scheduled speaker at FiRe 2010. "The ability
to transform data centers into an Always Available model -- where
computer use, and therefore energy use, is driven directly by
customer demand -- is the primary reason the U.S. Department of
Energy (DOE) awarded Power Assure a $5M grant. The U.S. government
sees the urgent need for the adoption of active power management
software in both enterprise and government data centers."
Future in Review is an annual gathering of world-class thought
leaders in technology and economics. Now in its eighth year, Future
in Review 2010 will take place May 11-14th at the beautiful Terranea
Resort in Palos Verdes, California. The Economist has called FiRe
"The best technology conference in the world." This year's FiRe will
feature keynote speaker Nathan Lewis, George L. Argyros Professor of
Chemistry, California Institute of Technology, on the key issue of
"Scaling Alternative Energies."
"Even as technology is helping us to design solutions to the crises
in energy use and climate change, the IT industry is adding
significantly to the demand curve. Power Assure's technology serves
many social needs at once: increased availability at the data center,
increased energy efficiency, and reduced comparative energy
consumption," said Mark Anderson, FiRe Chair and SNS CEO.
Other speakers at FiRe 2010 will include Ray Ozzie, Chief Software
Architect, Microsoft; Jen-Hsun Huang, CEO, NVIDIA; Paul Jacobs, CEO,
Qualcomm; Steve Squyres, Principal Investigator of the Mars
Exploration Rover Mission (MER) and Goldwin Smith Professor of
Astronomy at Cornell University, on "Finding Life on Mars"; John
Cramer, Science Fiction Author and Professor Emeritus, Physics,
University of Washington on "Quantum Time Reversal"; John Delaney,
Professor of Oceanography and Jerome M. Paros Endowed Chair in Sensor
Networks and Director, Regional Scale Nodes Program, University of
Washington, on building the world's first broadband ocean-floor
remote sensing network; and many more.
