As one of the most developed data center and cloud computing markets in Asia, Hong Kong is very likely to witness the growth of data center investment. The region has also witnessed the deployment of 5G technology, which may increase the number of interconnected devices in China. Mainland China’s demand for cross-border overseas business is also stimulating the growth of cloud computing service industries such as Hong Kong cloud servers. Hong Kong companies have a high level of service awareness and are more willing to adopt the latest industry trends, such as virtualization and cloud computing. Virtualization has become the key to data center consolidation, which can compress more virtual machines into physical servers and significantly increase server utilization.
Will the Hong Kong market have a breakthrough development in the post-epidemic period?
Media is convening a whole set of experts to share their local insights at our upcoming 2023 Hong Kong Cloud &Data Center Convention. This event will comprehensively examine the technological and business developments of these industries-from regional database management to financial technology to 5G adoption.
作為亞洲最發達的數據中心和雲計算市場之一，香港極有可能見證數據中心投資的增長。該地區還見證了 5G 技術的部署，這可能會增加中國互聯設備數量。中國大陸對跨境出海業務的需求也正在刺激香港雲服務器等雲計算服務行業的增長。香港企業對服務的認知度較高，並且更願意採用最新的行業趨勢，如虛擬化和雲計算。虛擬化已成為數據中心整合的關鍵，可將更多虛擬機壓縮到物理服務器中，並顯著提高服務器利用率。 香港市場在後疫情時期會有突破性發展嗎？ W.Media 正在召集各類專家，在我們即將舉行的 2022 年香港雲和數據中心大會上分享他們的本地見解。本次活動將全面審視這些行業的技術和業務方面的發展——從區域數據庫管理到金融科技到 5G 的採用。

On top of this, there are increasing pressures to match delivery with sustainability. How will Hong Kong meet these evolving requirements? |
| 12:00 | Industry Panel: Buying cloud well How can enterprise companies make the best and most cost-effective use of cloud? As the availability of cloud and its configurations evolve, what are the key questions that enterprises need to ask? |
| 12:30 | Break |
| 14:00 | Keynote: What role will technology play in improving data center energy conservation from point of generation to point of consumption? What are some of the key technologies and strategies used in NEA for these purposes? And which new technologies will take shape over the next few years? |
| 14:20 | Industry Panel: What are the key trends for the data center design and build process in Hong Kong? Increasing demand, shortage of space, greater requirements of compliance, rising costs of labour and materials ……. What is now the ROI case for building in Hong Kong? Which innovations and techniques can be deployed? |
| 14:50 | Solution and Case Study Presentation |
| 15:00 | Keynote: Challenges Of Scaling Cybersecurity – More Attacks, More Structures, More Innovations? Cloud transformation has been an inevitable trend for organizations to embark on. It may increase or change the digital risk profile for the organisation. The possibility of an accidental mistake in configurations, the exposure of sensitive data and applications, the speed of change all create a new threat landscape against which existing defenses may no longer be effective . In this session, we will take a deep dive into real-world case studies on cloud cyberattacks and appropriate response actions. In this session, we will take a deep dive in some of the real case scenarios on cloud cyberattacks and the appropriate response actions that you should take into consideration to embed in your cloud environment. |
| 15:20 | Panel Discussion: Planning, Policies & Skills - Do authorities understand fully the risks involving cloud-based infrastructure? What impacts is the ‘skills shortage’ having on data centers and associated industries in Hong Kong? ? We select some of the brightest local and international visionaries to share their thoughts on how Hong Kong should face the shortage and the role of different stakeholder groups in doing so. |
