During the HP Discover event five bloggers toured the Expo and tried out the new HP EcoPOD

It’s a complete datacenter in a box! HP calls it the world’s most efficient data center.

Unlike traditional brick and mortar data centers, the HP POD 240a packs ten times the IT capacity into a compact, modular, ultra efficient package.

  • Lightning fast deployment – up to 88% faster
  • A quarter of the cost – up to 75% savings
  • Near perfect energy efficiency – up to 95% less energy

HP Discover 2011 first day impressions

HP Discover 2011 is this major customer and partner event which is held in both United States (Las Vegas) and Europe (Vienna) next November.

I am part of a group of about 20 bloggers and micro bloggers who have kind of press status. HP wants to promote the use of social media for marketing purposes and lets face it, blogs, Facebook, Twitter are a sign of this time in history. We have a fully free format which means you are free in what, how or when you want to convey your messages. I have been blogging and tweeting for about two years so that is quite familiar, but acting as a sort of press guy is really new to me.

There are quite a number of famous bloggers in the group. The ones I follow or recognize are Chris Evans (@chrismevans) from www.thestoragearchitect.com and www.thevirtualarchitect.com, Mauricio Freitas (@freitasm) from www.geekzone.co.nz, Stu Miniman (@stu) from www.blogstu.worpress.com, John Obeto (@JohnObeto) from www.absolutelywindows.com), Eric Siebert (@ericsiebert) from www.vsphere-land.com, Chris White (@fezmid) from www.neowin.net, Hector Russo (@GeeksRoom) from www.geeksroom.com, Jeffrey Powers (@geekazine) from www.geekazine.com and several others. So it was a real honor to be amidst this group of geeks.

Monday started with a press conference and several tables were reserved for the bloggers. Because we might have problems using the Internet the organizers had thought of renting a 4G Mobile Access WMAX device from Clear which really made Internet Access fly!

All the keynote speakers and HP executives were present and one by one they covered the most important topics of the event.
