Governments Missing Out On Virtualization Savings
January 31, 2012 02:34 PM
Government agencies need to overcome funding uncertainties and other major barriers in order to realize savings from virtualizing their servers and desktops, according to a new study by MeriTalk. The report, "Virtualization Vacuum: The 2012 Government Virtualization Study," surveyed government IT decision makers. One of the key findings is that 82% of federal and 77% of state and local IT professionals say their agencies have already implemented some server virtualization at an estimated savings of 19% of their IT budgets, which translates to $15 billion across government.Riverbed Virtualizes Cascade

As use of IT grows in enterprises, so, too, do demands on networks to deliver more capacity and speed and to be able to prioritize traffic. Video gets priority over a simple email, but a VoIP call gets priority over video if the video in question is something frivolous on YouTube. The need to manage the growth and increasing complexity of networks is driving demand for network performance management technology that can monitor traffic, identify possible bottlenecks and intervene to clear bottlenecks up.Virtualization, Cloud Having Little Impact On Databases
January 29, 2012 11:00 AM
Cloud computing has taken center stage during the last two years as the hot enterprise technology, but in the database realm, the public cloud and off-site hosted database services still represent too many unknown factors to truly have mass adoption. According to the co-author of the InformationWeek "State of Database Technology" report, the public cloud is so far having very little impact on enterprise databases.Forecast: 10GbE To Be The Top-Selling Ethernet Switch By 2016
January 27, 2012 12:07 PM
Sales of 10-Gbit per second (Gbps) Ethernet switches are expected to reach $13 billion by 2016 and will constitute nearly half of a total $28 billion Ethernet switch market by then, a forecast from the research firm Dell'Oro Group states. And even as data center operators upgrade from 1-Gbit Ethernet switches to 10-Gbit Ethernet to handle exponentially larger volumes of network data traffic, sales of even faster 40-Gbit Ethernet and 100-Gbit Ethernet switches will also be picking up.Virsto Software Beefs Up Storage Hypervisor

January 03, 2012 03:30 PM
When an InformationWeek Research trending survey shows a 10% or 20% year-over-year shift (or more), I take notice. I do the same when a much-hyped tech barely manages to squeak up five points in 12 or 18 months. So if you're tired of end-of-year punditry backed up by nothing but speculation, take a look at these enterprise IT trends--and the hard data behind them from our research.2012: Veni, Vidi, VDI
December 30, 2011 09:03 AM
Will 2012 be the year desktop virtualization--a.k.a. VDI, thin-client computing or anything but Wintel--finally moves from primarily a vendor push to customer pull? The vendors--and pundits--have been shouting the praises of VDI for the last several years, but the reality has not come close to the hype.VKernel Enhances VM Management Automation In vOperations Suite

December 21, 2011 12:44 PM
Virtualization was second only to cloud computing as a priority for 2,014 CIOs representing over $160 billion in corporate and public sector IT spending across 50 countries and 38 industries in Gartner's 2011 CIO Agenda survey, released in January. While IT budgets were expected to be flat for the year, these technologies were selected as the top two technologies for 2011 and are well-suited for this budget reality, as they offer similar service levels at lower budget costs, stated Gartner.Year In Review: VDI Explosion Coming Soon To A Desktop Near You
December 20, 2011 10:44 AM
Toward the end of 2010, Gartner reported that more than 80% of enterprises have a virtualization program or project, and it joined a veritable army of research companies and vendors predicting that the desktop would be virtualized via solutions such as VDI or hosted virtual desktops. However, according to a CDW survey, companies are finding that client virtualization is more complex to implement than they realized, that ROI is difficult to calculate, and that training end users can be a challenge.« Previous Page | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | Next Page »
