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 Seeks To Join IBM, Dell In Value-Add X86 Data Center Server Space

March 07, 2012 09:00 AM
Originally "pre-launched" three weeks ago, the initial seven models of the ProLiant Generation 8, HP's latest version of its x86-based servers, were officially unveiled this week and are expected to ship later this month. The first set of products from the company's Project Voyager initiative--a $300 million investment, with two years of R&D and more than 900 patents--these servers incorporate a number of new features and capabilities that are intended to "redefine the expectations and economics of the data center," including tripling administrator productivity and delivering a return on investment in as little as five months.

Fujitsu America Unveils Free Cloud Services

May 25, 2011 11:16 AM
As one of the biggest IT vendors you've never heard of, at least as far as the U.S. market goes, Fujitsu America understands a business-as-usual approach to launching its cloud platform might not be the best approach. So the world's third-largest IT services provider, and fifth-largest server and PC vendor, is debuting a trial of the North American version of its 2-year-old Fujitsu Global Cloud Platform of the Fujitsu Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) offering, beginning May 31 and ending Aug. 31.

IDC: Server Sales Growth Highest In Three Years In Fourth Quarter Of 2010

March 02, 2011 10:30 AM
Worldwide server sales revenue rose 15.3 percent in the fourth quarter of 2010, compared with the year ago quarter, the highest growth rate in three years and the fourth straight quarter of year-over-year growth, as customers continued a refresh cycle of their IT assets, according to a report released Monday from IDC. The IDC report mirrored an earlier analysis by Gartner. One notable growth market was high-end x86 architecture servers, according to an IDC analyst.

Oracle Claims Benchmark Record With SPARC Supercluster Servers

December 06, 2010 07:00 AM
Oracle has introduced a new line of SPARC-powered servers that, when assembled into a server cluster, deliver transaction processing speeds three times faster than IBM systems and more than 7 times faster than HP systems. The new processor, server, storage, networking and operating system announcements continue Oracle's strategy of engineering hardware and software to work together to optimize performance and efficiency.

Virtualization Drives Up Server Prices

December 02, 2010 11:18 AM
Server shipments and the average selling price of servers soared in the third quarter of 2010. The latest numbers from Gartner paint a rosy picture for server vendors, with global shipments up 14.2 percent year-over-year while revenues were up 15.3 percent. IDC was a shade more Grinch-like, reporting a 13.2 percent revenue increase, to $11.8 billion, on a 13.1 percent increase in shipments. The only gloom in the report was related to Oracle, as its server business (essentially Sun) lost market share.

Why Aren't Japanese IT Companies Stronger In U.S.?

August 04, 2010 02:53 PM
I've been reminded twice over the past few weeks of just how little mindshare Japan's big three IT companies have on this side of the Pacific. First, the vast majority of my fellow geeks at Tech Field Day didn't realize that NEC made servers and storage systems in addition to monitors and PBXs. Then I read a series of blogs from folks that went to Hitachi's 100th anniversary bash in Japan referring to HDS as "masters of stealth marketing." So why don't these established companies have better market positions here in the US of A?

Toshiba Unveils Big Capacity In Small Form Factor

February 18, 2010 08:00 AM
A 2.5-inch laptop hard drive with a capacity of 6GB was once state of the art. Today Toshiba Storage Device Division unveiled a series of hard drives in the same 2.5-inch form factor capable of storing as much as 100 times that amount. Bearing the first fruit of its acquisition of Fujitsu's hard drive business, Toshiba introduced the MFB series of small form-factor, serial-attached SCSI drives that max out at 600GB, use up to 28 percent less power than similar models and can optionally self-encrypt all data.
