There’s no doubt that we’re just starting to tip the number and type of applications that can now be effectively run on a virtual server.
In a How to Get at Least 2X Greater Costs Savings from Virtualization webinar presented by Marathon Technologies, it’s noted that right now only 15 to 30 percent of applications in an enterprise are running on a virtual machine today. View More
One of the biggest problems with virtualization is that it can increase the number of actual servers that have to be backed up by ten-fold or more.
In a Leveraging Virtualization with Deduplication to Cut Costs webinar presented by ExaGrid Systems and Vizioncore, a way to simplify the backup process for virtual servers is clearly outlined. View More
When it comes to creating a virtual desktop, there are a lot of options ranging from thin client systems and terminal services to virtual desktop infrastructure and application virtualization.
In a Simplifying Desktop Virtualization Deployment webinar presented by VMware, the fundamentals of VDI and application virtualization, along with a novel way of creating “zero-client” virtual machines from Pano Logic, are explained. View More
What if by simply deploying one technology you could eliminate the need for branch office servers, remote tape subsystems, avoid network hardware upgrades, lower disaster recovery costs and significant cut the amount of frivolous Web traffic on the network.
In a Riverbed: The Complete IT Solution webinar, a strong case is made for the value of application acceleration appliances that can improve network application performance by as much as 70 percent. View More
As the amount of data that needs to be managed continues to grow, the backup and recovery process is increasingly out of control. Simply put, there’s too much data to be backed up over night on existing tape storage systems.
In a Weather the Economic Storm with a Smart Data Protection Strategy webinar sponsored by ExaGrid Systems and Symantec, it becomes clear that IT organizations need disk-based backup systems coupled with data deduplication software in order to stand a fighting chance when it come to backup and recovery.

One of the best things about virtualization is that it substantially reduces the cost of creating a disaster recovery plan. This means that not only is it less expense to set up a disaster recovery strategy, the number of applications that can be covered under that plan can be greatly increased.
In a How the University of Texas Averted IT Disaster during Hurricane Dolly webinar presented by VMware, the inherent disaster recovery benefits of virtualization are discussed in some detail. View More
Just about everybody agrees the convergence of server, network and storage technologies is going to happen on some level in the data center. But nobody is exactly sure to how fast it will happen or for that matter to what degree.
In a Future o Enterprise IT: the Business Impact of Converged IT webinar sponsored by EMC, an initial attempt is made to sort out these issues. View More
The common wisdom of the day holds that virtualization introduces a lot of overhead that adversely affects application performance.
In a Virtualizing Tier 1 Apps on VMware vSphere: Exchange, SQL, Oracle, SAP webinar presented by VMware, the latest version of VMware’s virtualization platform is touted as being able to match or exceed the performance of applications running on their native platforms. View More
When it comes to databases, there really isn’t anything such as too fast.
In a Maximize Oracle Database Efficiency with New EMC Symmetrix V-Max webinar, a pitch is made for adopting EMC’s latest storage array based on faster performance and simplified provisioning. View More
As the amount of data that needs to be managed continues to grow exponentially, it comes as no surprise that that backup and recovery process is under a massive amount of pressure. Not only do IT organizations need a way to backup data faster, they also need a more cost-efficient approach in order to lower costs in these difficult economic times.
In an Evaluating Disk Backup with Deduplication: Case Studies and Industry Information from the Frontline webinar sponsored by ExaGrid Systems, the value of combining deduplication software with disk-based backup systems is outlined. View More
