Data Center Pulse Adds Eddie Schutter to the Board of Directors
📅 - Company expands the Board of Directors to continue the goal of influencing the data center industry through their exclusive, global end user community.
Data Center Pulse, a growing, non-profit, data center industry community, yesterday announced that it has added Eddie Schutter to the Board of Directors as the Local Chapter Strategy & Operational Director responsible for end user community development.
According to the company, Eddie is currently the Senior Technical Director of Data Center Architecture & Planning for AT&T. He brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the Data Center Pulse board. Over his 15 year IT career, he has operated some of the largest data center portfolios in the United States. He has been actively involved in almost every major data center industry group. Currently he is representing AT&T on the Advisory Council of the Green Grid. It adds that he is also the co-chair of the Green Grid Data Center Design Guide technical forum.
The company explains that its core membership has reached 1,580 people in 62 countries representing almost 100 different industries. The Data Center Pulse group has also broken 1,500 members. The interest level is increasing and the timing is right to focus on local issues and support the groundswell of interest from its membership. In late April the company established its first two local US DCP chapters, one in Salt Lake City, Utah and one in Phoenix, Arizona. 15 different companies attended the initial kickoff meetings for these two chapters and represented over 100 megawatts of current and future Data Center power consumption in those states.
It further states that these individuals have great economic and ecological responsibilities and are motivated to collaborate and share. Eddie will be responsible for establishing the bylaws, governance and operating models of the local chapters to maximize their effectiveness and their contributions to its global efforts.
Eddie recently articulated his motivation for accepting the DCP board position: "There are plenty of opportunities to join organizations that will entertain you at conferences and present yesterday's 'white paper' news. DC Pulse is different. It is a gathering of end users who want to make a difference in our industry, share their experiences and concerns, and produce relevant solutions and practices that will advance the data center industry. I look forward to participating in the evolution of this organization and the contributions to the industry it will provide."
"Eddie was one of our earliest DCP members and has been actively supporting the DCP work for almost two years," said Dean Nelson, Chairman and Founder of Data Center Pulse. "We are very pleased to have Eddie join the board. His experience will accelerate our efforts on numerous fronts, including the development of our local chapter strategy."
