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.

HP's Next CEO Needs To Steer The Ship

August 13, 2010 10:01 AM
With Mark Hurd out of HP, the company has an opportunity to find a replacement who can carry the company forward. One of the striking moments at CiscoLive was listening to CEO John Chambers during the keynote and in a smaller gathering, and realizing how firmly he has his finger on the pulse of Cisco's business and technology direction. He is clearly driving the company. Whoever takes over HP, and apparently our own Art Wittmann interviewed for the job, has a number of challenges facing them, not the least of which, as Bob Evans points out, is defining and articulating the HP data center and networking strategy.

Cisco's Vision Of Trust And Security: Building It With Or Without You

June 30, 2010 03:46 PM
I am pretty impressed with Cisco's breadth and depth of vision on where the information technology is heading and the role of the network in that vision. One item stuck out during Pamasree Warriors Keynote address today, and that is the requirement for trust and security in the borderless endzone, borderless Internet and the borderless data center. The inference I take from that is that security and trust have to follow information and services as they are accessed and located in the varying zones. I agree that security and trust are necessary, but getting there is going to be extremely difficult. What strikes me is that Cisco's vision in the near term to perhaps even 10 years out requires either an all-Cisco network or a ton of standards development that I don't even see on the horizon.

Sevone Speeds Netflow Collection And Reporting

June 22, 2010 09:00 AM
Sevone Inc. has announced an update, Version 4.1, of its network data flow collection and reporting products. The new version doubles the speed of its Dedicated NetFlow Collector, allowing the collection of 15 million flows per minute and increasing the speed of the reports based on the data from the collectors. The update is intended to make the product more attractive to medium- to large-sized enterprises. The company has also enhanced its FlowFalcon NetFlow reporting engine to generate real-time network-wide reports that use the computing resources of all the NetFlow collectors in parallel. This makes report generation faster and also makes it easier to scale. In addition, the new capability means users are less likely to need additional reporting hardware.

Juniper Releases SSL VPN Client For Mobile Devices

June 17, 2010 11:03 AM
Juniper Networks has announced the release of Juno Pulse, a downloadable SSL VPN client for verifying a device's compliance with endpoint security policies and creating secure connections between an enterprise network and laptops, netbooks, non-mobile devices, as well as a number of smartphones, including Microsoft Windows devices, Nokia Symbian, and the forthcoming iPhone 4G. Juniper also announced the release of new AppTrack software for providing detailed information about types of applications used, as well as how they're used, across an enterprise for designing better security policies. The software, which is compatible with Juniper's SRX Series Services Gateways, also adds application identification information to firewall logs.

Global Communications Leaders Form Industry Alliance To Deliver Unified Communications Interoperability

May 19, 2010 09:07 AM
Citing the need to fully leverage customers' investments in communications systems and unite their global organizations, five global technology companies today joined to form the Unified Communications Interoperability Forum (UCIF), an alliance dedicated to enabling standards-based, inter-vendor unified communications (UC) interoperability. HP, Juniper Networks, Microsoft, Logitech / LifeSize, and Polycom, seek to unify the vibrant but fragmented UC ecosystem through this shared mission.

Cisco Delivers Redundant Arrays Of Independent Datacenters: The New RAID

February 23, 2010 03:00 PM
On February 8, Cisco announced the introduction of new products that are part of an industry-wide continuum of cloud infrastructure development. One Cisco product, Overlay Transport Virtualization (OTV), stands out by dramatically simplifying the deployment of Layer 2 connections between datacenters to form Redundant Arrays of Independent "Datacenters" (RAID).

HP & Cisco: It's All Fun And Games Until Someone Loses A Partnership. . . .

February 19, 2010 11:00 AM
The battle for the hearts, minds and most importantly, pocketbooks of data center managers, escalated yesterday as HP announced they were OEMing a couple of Qlogic fiber channel switches and Cisco ceremoniously booted HP from their premier reseller program. Tensions have been growing ever since Mark Hurd and the rest of HP management decided to stop treating ProCurve like a red-headed stepchild, and Cisco entered the server market with their UCS.

Cisco Kicks HP To The Curb

February 19, 2010 09:18 AM
In a stunning move, Cisco has announced that it will not renew its System Integrator contract with HP. HP will no longer be a Cisco Certified Channel or a Global Service Alliance Partner after April 30th, 2010. If there was any confusion that Cisco and HP were on a crash course, this move by Cisco should clear that up. Cisco's dropping HP follows the rumor, confirmed by Dell, that Cisco has also stopped plans to manufacture the Nexus 4001d Blade Switch for Dell's M1000e chassis.

Brocade M&A Fire Still Burning

December 10, 2009 09:45 AM
Considering the recent maelstrom of speculation surrounding the possible acquisition of Brocade, the timing of the take-out provision in their Form 8-K is the smoke that tells us Brocade's M&A fire is still burning.

Juniper's Plan To Win: It's The Application

November 02, 2009 08:00 AM
One of Juniper's constant points is the single OS, Junos, that runs across their entire product line. When the company announced their EX switch line last year, having the same OS on both routers and switches was novel, but not a real deal maker. However, Juniper has more products other than just routers and switches. They also sell SSL VPN, WAN optimization, Intrusion Detection/Prevention and firewall appliances none of which run Junos. I keep hearing "It's coming, it's coming," but I have yet to see anything in products. If and when they do move everything to Junos may mark a sea change in networking.
