Loading… we have started preparing
the 23rd edition of No Time for Downtime.

Don’t miss the 23rd edition of No Time for Downtime, the reference event on operational continuity, critical infrastructures and information security for your organization.

About NTFD

No Time for Downtime is the reference event dedicated to computing systems and mission-critical infrastructures in Romania. It brings together technology leaders, integrators and practitioners who present solutions and trends for modern IT infrastructure, oriented towards operational continuity, performance and security.

The target audience includes organizations of all sizes, with their own data centers or hosted or hybrid infrastructures. The program is structured in two complementary sections: a technology showcase with live demonstrations and a series of applied presentations, case studies and best practices. NTFD facilitates direct dialog between manufacturers, integrators and beneficiaries and provides context for informed technology decisions.

REQUEST INVITE

How was the previous editions?

We would like to thank our partners at Maguay, both for a successful event and for their involvement in the partnership we have been developing over the last few years.
For Hewlett Packard Enterprise, this event brings the opportunity to present the latest innovations available in the HPE portfolio and I would mention here the Data & Cloud, Hyperconverged, Mission Critical, Wi Fi – Aruba solutions.
All these state-of-the-art solutions aim to modernize and optimize the IT infrastructure and processes for all companies in Romania.
