 | Virtualization on an enterprise level has developed into a significant strategy for organizations that are watching costs, but do not want to adversely impact service levels. The increasing need for agility in market response is also pushing more and more organizations to implement virtualization on an organizational level, with more and more production VM images being deployed every day. Virtualization provides both an isolation and prioritization of resources that allows a single platform to function as if it were split into multiple machines. The conjunction of today’s technology-driven business marketplace with the economic clime pushes organizations into a continual search for higher efficiencies and better leveraging of IT resources. Virtualization is one of the most powerful tools in the achievement of increased leverage and efficiency of those resources, while positioning organizations strategically for a cloud-computing model. The choice of virtualization method and platform can be challenging, as businesses struggle to understand the change in challenges to their information delivery processes, support staffing and the different, critical decision elements that need to be considered. Since the impact of virtualization forms an underlying contribution to an organization that is a diffuse layer within the IT infrastructure, IBM engaged Solitaire Interglobal Ltd. (SIL) to conduct surveys, gather data and perform analysis to provide a clear understanding of the benefits and relative costs that can be seen when organizations implement IBM z/VM as part of their IT architecture. This analysis has been primarily directed at the value of virtualization from a business perspective, so that those whose role it is to provide business leadership can understand the benefit of the IBM z/VM virtualization offerings when evaluating its selection.

 | When severe weather, a natural disaster, or any other catastrophe occurs, your first thoughts will not be about recovering and restoring your company’s critical data, which is why you want to be prepared for the unexpected. When it comes to preparing your business for catastrophe, your professional emergency kit should include a solid bare-metal restore and disaster recovery (DR) plan. Unlike AIX, Linux distributions do not come with a bare-metal recovery utility. In this webinar David Huffman, president/CEO of Storix, shares his knowledge on disaster recovery, and how to improve your existing strategies for better disaster preparedness. Download Now |
 | Risk management is not about absolutes or certainty; it’s about playing the odds. This principle is particularly relevant when it comes to securing end user computing activity. We have no shortage of solutions available to us in this area. Indeed looking at what’s available on the market, it’s clear that many options exist for tackling the same or similar requirements. The problem, however, is that none of them are 100% effective at what they are supposed to do. But even if they were, the complexity of the environment along with the dynamic nature of the problem means no single technology or service is ever going to be enough. Minimising your exposure is about mixing the right cocktail of solutions and approaches to achieve an ‘acceptable’ level of protection for your organisation and the situations that arise within it. In an attempt to understand what this translates to in practice, we conducted an online research study during June and July 2013 in which data was gathered from 977 IT and business professionals. In terms of scope, the questionnaire used was one of the broadest we have ever developed at Freeform Dynamics, and our thanks go out to all of those who had the patience to work through it. The exercise was well worth it, however, as we ended up with a good holistic view of the things that really matter. Download Now |
