In the newly created role of executive director of the Modular Data Center Unit, Robbins will be responsible for all design, manufacturing partnerships, and sales operations surrounding Data Centers Delivered's MDC product lines.

Robbins joins Data Centers Delivered from Silicon Graphics International (SGI, formerly Rackable Systems (News - Alert)) where he was the principal program manager and worldwide business development manager for the ICE Cube product line. He devised the market strategy for ICE Cube by taking a concept design and transforming it into a customized product set by individual customer requirements. Within five months Robbins launched a global MDC program with two employees, no marketing, zero internal funding and a strategic global partnership strategy that included building the world's largest software company's first containerized data centers. Within 12 months the MDC pipeline grew to more than $40M, including manufacturing in the US and Europe and deployments on nearly every continent.
