Where the Cloud Touches Down: Simplifying Data Center Infrastructure Management

Thursday, July 25, 2013
10:00 AM PT/1:00 PM ET

In most data centers, DCIM rests on a shaky foundation of manual record keeping and scattered documentation. OpManager replaces data center documentation with a single repository for data, QRCodes for asset tracking, accurate 3D mapping of asset locations, and a configuration management database (CMDB). In this webcast, sponsored by ManageEngine, you will see how a real-world datacenter mapping stored in racktables gets imported into OpManager, which then provides a 3D visualization of where assets actually are. You'll also see how the QR Code generator helps you make the link between real assets and the monitoring world, and how the layered CMDB provides a single point of view for all your configuration data.

Aerohive Teams With JAMF Software, Cozies Up on Apple iDevice MDM

June 26, 2012 09:00 AM
Aerohive's HiveOS is now integrated with JAMF's Casper Suite to ensure that Apple iDevices are properly configured. But what's behind the company's entrenched interest in Apple integrations?

Microsoft To Tough It Out In Virtualization Space

May 07, 2012 10:00 AM
As Microsoft works on carving out its spot in the virtualization space against industry leaders like VMware, a look at the company's technology history shows more hits than misses.

Unlocking WAN Optimization Security

April 12, 2012 09:00 AM
In this second installment of a three-part series on WAN optimization (the first examined visibility), Network Computing looks at the security tools that protect a network so it can deliver data, video, voice, cloud applications and all the other traffic it needs to send on its way.

The Mess That Is Android: A Google-Powered Object Lesson

April 09, 2012 01:30 PM
Google's Android is a great OS, but it has significant problems that must be addressed before it becomes irrelevant. Here are 10 of them.

Apple Continues Enterprise Blitz-Crawl

April 02, 2012 09:00 AM
Thanks to the rising popularity of the iPad, Apple’s influence within the enterprise is growing, but not with rocketing speed as one might suspect. Still, the advantage appears to be on Apple’s side, even if corporate IT managers view the vendor’s hardware as an afterthought.

Taming Apple's Bonjour

March 08, 2012 03:56 PM
By now we know that iPhones and iPads (and a few of those Android things) have infiltrated the enterprise, but much of Apple's approach to networking and interdevice functionality is still a bit, well, consumer-oriented, which has IT scrambling to deal with protocols that often conflict with enterprise IT's goals.

Trying To Stay Sane In A Crazy Wireless World

March 05, 2012 11:00 AM
I'm here to tell you, supporting wireless and mobile clients is nothing like keeping our Ethernet-tethered users happy. In the wired network world, you either get the speed that you're supposed to, or some counter or log somewhere points you to what's wrong. In the wireless realm, the variables are almost infinite. It's way more complicated, and getting worse. A lot worse.

FAST Paper Casts Doubt on SSD Future

February 21, 2012 11:00 AM
At last month's FAST (File and Storage Technologies) conference, researchers from UCSD and Microsoft Research presented a paper, titled "The Bleak Future of NAND Flash Memory" that's put the rosy all-flash-all-the-time future predicted by some in doubt for the long term. The gist of the paper's argument is that the physics of flash, and the researchers' testing, indicate that as flash density increases, the life and performance of flash will degrade to the point that by 2024 flash will no longer be a viable solution.

AirMagnet Sees One Man's Feature As Another's Security Issue

November 10, 2011 08:25 AM
Apple’s Lion OS touts AirDrop as one of its competitive differentiators, allowing multiple users to share files over the WLAN. The problem is that the files may be corporate-sensitive, and the users taking part in the sharing may be on wireless machines not authorized for access. So AirMagnet dares to visit the murky junction where what you can do with your Mac crosses paths with what you shouldn’t do at work, and exposes it for those charged with network security. I have to wonder how Apple feels about AirDrop being deemed a security risk.

How Will Thunderbolt Affect Enterprise Storage?

March 08, 2011 07:00 AM
Last week, Intel and Apple dropped a bombshell on the consumer computer peripheral market. The new Thunderbolt port, a 10G bps interconnect found on Apple's latest MacBook Pro laptop computers, combines DisplayPort video and PCI Express and is opening a new world of expansion options. But how will this technology, formerly known as Light Peak, impact enterprise storage?
