Our 18th Data Center Executive Roundtable showcases the insights of thought leaders on the state of the data center industry, and where it is headed. In our First Quarter 2020 roundtable, we examine four topics: the explosive growth of data and its impact on the enterprise, the pace of the rollout of 5G wireless, how the rise of AI is influencing liquid cooling, and the data center industry’s progress on diversity.
