PODTECH at DCD Connect India 2026

PODTECH will be at DCD Connect | India 2026, held at the Fairmont in Mumbai on 13–14 October. It is the inaugural India edition of DCD's Connect series, and for a business with engineering teams in Gurugram and Bengaluru and a head office in Milton Keynes, it is an easy one to say yes to.

Why This One Matters

India has become one of the more interesting places in the world to build data centers, and the event reflects that. DCD expects more than 1,500 senior digital infrastructure professionals, 120+ speakers and 60+ exhibitors across the two days, with an advisory board drawn from the operators actually doing the building — STT GDC India, Equinix, AdaniConneX, Iron Mountain Data Centers India and Oracle Cerner among them.

The agenda leans practical rather than promotional. Sessions include Meeting digital demand in India — now and in the future, Operating in India: the challenges and opportunities, and a look at NTT's global deployments in the country. That last theme — the gap between designing a facility and running it day to day — is where most of our work sits.

What We Do

We build the monitoring and control layer that sits underneath data center operations. Our A1 Controller collects telemetry from power, cooling and environmental sensors and puts it in one place, in real time. Alongside it, PODVIEW gives operators a view across sites rather than one rack at a time.

Most of the interesting problems, though, are integration problems. Building management and power management systems rarely speak the same language, and older kit on site rarely speaks anything modern at all. Our data center services team spends much of its time joining those systems together — Modbus, BACnet, SNMP and whatever else a facility happens to be running — so operators get one coherent picture instead of six partial ones.

Come and Find Us

We are going to Mumbai to listen as much as to talk. If you are operating colocation or hyperscale capacity in India and are wrestling with telemetry, systems that will not talk to each other, or visibility across a growing estate, we would like to hear about it.

DCD runs a co-located Investment Forum | India alongside the main event, and operates complimentary passes for end users — worth checking the registration page for current terms. Get in touch if you would like to arrange a time to meet while we are there.
