With the looming move to Windows 7, IT organizations are faced with how to manage the upgrade of every desktop and application in the company. Desktop and application virtualization hold the promise of solving this problem along with myriad desktop management problems that have been plaguing IT for decades. But until recently, multiple barriers prevented widespread adoption of virtual desktop technologies, and in fact, many early desktop virtualization projects failed as a result.

This interactive seminar will feature a vendor neutral perspective on the strategic and game changing technologies you should be thinking about. You will also learn about ways to optimize your storage infrastructure to address the key issues and challenges created by compliance, virtualization, DR, virtual/physical data protection and storage growth with shrinking budgets.

"Cloud Computing" is the new frontier in distributed computing.  It promises economies and efficiencies that require a new level of IT knowledge, preparation and execution.  

In this seminar you will learn answers to these questions and gain insights into what cloud computing really is, and how to determine what aspects, if any, are a good fit for your organization.   In follow-on seminars we will delve deeper with a more granular look and arm you with the knowledge to comfortably move forward on your cloud initiative.

Wonder why the deployment of VMware SRM costs so much and is so complex? So do we! Join us for a half day seminar as we investigate the mystery.

VMware SRM is designed to deliver affordable disaster recovery. For the rest of us, deploying it seems to cost 20 times more than the cost of VMware SRM itself. What is this, the tail wagging the dog? Why is data management for VMware environments not as simple as VMware itself? Join us to understand how Actifio’s Data Management Virtualization, (DMV) solutions, bring the same benefits of simplicity, agility and lower costs to storage that VMware brings to the server environment.

In this seminar you will learn how VMware's SRM and Actifio's DMV tools combine to take a different approach to protecting data.  Clearly, this is a new approach - but one that analysts agree the industry should have been using all along.

This one-day learning seminar will focus on various technologies and provide insight into best practices when considering disaster recovery, backup  & high-availability solutions in today’s physical and virtualized infrastructure.
