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.

April 26, 2012 11:00 AM
The virtualization market continues to heat up, exceeding expectations across the board for servers, desktops and appliances. However, will licensing and pricing concerns, along with competition, derail the growth of industry giant VMware?

HDS Ushers In 'No-Compromise' Unified Storage

April 24, 2012 09:00 AM
Hitachi Data Systems is jumping into the unified storage race with what it calls the first midmarket offering to consolidate and centrally manage block, file and object data on a single platform.

HP: When 'Good' Security News Isn't

April 23, 2012 09:00 AM
HP is just the latest in a long list of security vendors touting its comprehensive cyber security report showing what the most recent threats are, how they’ve changed and--sometimes subtly, sometimes not--how their security technology can protect you. But its study is another illustration of how the tech industry is constantly playing catchup with the criminals. HP’s report also illustrates how seemingly good news can turn out to be bad.

Help Desk Replacement Cuts Costs By $100,000

April 19, 2012 09:00 AM
Customer service is a key watchword in business today. With a system upgrade looming on the horizon, Optimal Payments decided to look for a more efficient way to service its customers than its existing Remedy help-desk solution from BMC Software. After the payment software and service supplier went out to the marketplace in search of alternatives, it purchased a solution--Zoho’s ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus--that reduced its operating costs by $100,000 annually.

EMC Unveils More Flexible IT Bundling

April 12, 2012 09:00 AM
These days, companies basically have two options for bringing new information technology into their data centers. They can acquire all the servers, storage, networking and software from different vendors, try to put it all together and make it work, or they can buy one big appliance that’s simpler to set up but is of a fixed configuration. EMC is offering a third option that combines the best attributes of the previous options, which it calls VSPEX.

April 11, 2012 09:00 AM
In part two of our examination of the state of enterprise SSDs/flash storage, we look at the implications for vendors, a mix of new and existing companies seeking to capitalize on a large and growing opportunity.

SNW Trots Out 'Cool' Storage Tech

April 09, 2012 09:00 AM
The Storage Networking World I attended in Dallas last week was a substantially different event than SNWs of old. In the past, SNW was the event where storage vendors socialized with each other, mixing business and pleasure over drinks and the pre-conference golf outing. This SNW seemed to have a lot more end users there for the education sessions and hands-on labs.

SSDs Continue Enterprise Penetration

April 04, 2012 09:00 AM
Flash/solid-state disk (SSD) drives are changing the way enterprise storage vendors are developing their products, says Gary Watson, CTO of disk-based data storage systems provider Nexsan, which just came out with its NST-Series of unified storage systems. The release follows LSI’s ongoing transition from spinning disks to solid state with its latest Nytro products, which are focused on bringing flash into the server. And in February, EMC announced that its PCIe/flash-based server cache technology, VFCache, is now available.

EMC Extends Cloud Services, Buys Pivotal Labs

March 21, 2012 01:30 PM
Just weeks after EMC unveiled five security and risk management advisory services, driven in part by the need to 'provide its customers with end-to-end solutions', the storage giant's consulting arm is at it again, with a new set of service offerings. The company says the new additions to its cloud services portfolio will accelerate the adoption, consumption, optimization, and management of cloud computing, and will align to such critical IT-as-a-Service (ITaaS) elements as cloud infrastructure, cloud optimized applications, and end-user computing.
