HEAnet's hosting services have become increasingly popular in the last 5 years with more and more clients opting to host equipment off campus using our Co-location service in our Blanchardstown and Parkwest datacentres to provide Disaster Recovery for critical systems or to house projects with specific power and cooling requirements.

This workshop will cover our top tips for effectively managing a datacentre, and will help you get the most out of your hosted equipment with HEAnet.

We are also revamping our Webhosting service with a view to offering a panel interface to clients to manage their HEAnet hosted websites this year and this workshop will introduce the new features available.

Lunch will be provided.
