Digital transformation is on the rise and data is regarded as a key asset to the success of any business. Industry reports indicate that Middle East’s smart cities development roadmap and digital transformation processes play a critical role in the exponential growth in datacentre investments.

In a data-driven world, operating an effective, reliable, robust and secure IT ecosystem is imperative. As the only focused conference of its kind in this region, the Future Datacentres and Cloud Infrastructure Summit 2019 to be held on 8^th and 9^th April 2019 in Dubai, U.A.E, will lay emphasis on the growth of this industry, the growing migration to cloud with an emphasis on aspects such as security, cost and energy efficiency, and recognizing the challenges in doing so.
