Virtualization has
quickly become a staple
new concept for
enterprise IT. At
SYS-CON's 3rd
International
Virtualization Conference
& Expo, held at the
Roosevelt Hotel in New
York City, June 23-24, we
had exceptional speakers
with high-quality use
cases not only ...
The world's first journal
devoted to the delivery
of massively scalable IT
resources as a service
has been launched by
SYS-CON Media, the latest
in a series of
leading-edge additions to
its 25-plus stable of
online and print
publications such as Web
2.0 Journal, A...
Just as people begin to
understand the difference
between web ops and IT,
we are entering a period
where clouds promise
'Ops-Free' computing.
Because it's easy,
scalable, available and
disposable, the cloud is
well on its way to
becoming 'technology's
next big thi...
With the adoption of
virtualization, virtual
machines are replacing
physical servers in the
data center and
introducing a unique set
of management
requirements.
Policy-based management
in the virtualized
infrastructure is an
approach that is used to
simplify and...
Cloud Computing offers
significant benefits over
traditional solutions for
deploying production
systems as well as for
conducting development
and testing activities.
This session will distill
the unique
characteristics of clouds
and describe how to best
think abou...
As server virtualization
gains mainstream
adoption, it is
increasingly being
deployed to support a
broad range of data
center initiatives that
extend beyond simple
server consolidation and
development and test.
Today, enterprises of all
sizes are realizing the
t...
Join MokaFive co-founder
and CTO, John Whaley, as
he discusses desktop
virtualization as a
potential dream-come-true
for IT administrators
faced with demanding
users and impending
disasters. Whaley will
cover how desktop
virtualization provides
solutions to accomm...
Virtualization comes in
many forms, and by
combining multiple
technologies, enterprises
can transform the way
they deploy and manage
their software. This
session will examine how
an enterprise can combine
the use of layer-2
'desktop' hypervisor
technology, layer-1...
Today, offerings such as
Amazon Web Services'
Elastic Compute Cloud
(EC2) are providing a new
model for on demand
compute resources based
on virtual machines.
Virtual appliances are a
natural deployment
vehicle for this type of
infrastructure, allowing
a clean sep...
Cloud Computing offers

Cloud Computing, in its
current incarnation,
falls short on its
promise to make computing
as a whole as simple as
plugging an application
into a utility service.
The 'cloud' model
initially has focused on
making the hardware layer
consumable as on-demand
compute a...
The demand for storage
has increased
exponentially, placing
significant stress on
current 'in house'
storage architectures and
costly overcapacity
build-outs. Factoring in
pressures of power,
space, large capital
expenditures, global
performance, and
availabilit...
Currently most desktop
productivity software
including browsers, mail
clients, Office suites,
IM, and media players
make direct connections
to the Internet and/or
run untrusted content. As
a result, these
applications, which are
core to office
productivity, are al...
This session describes
how the wave of
virtualization technology
in the data center can be
extended beyond
hypervisors to embrace
complete IT
infrastructure management
resulting in significant
business value. It will
commence by summarizing
the fundamental problem...
As more enterprises
embrace virtual
infrastructure for part
or all of their compute
infrastructure, tools are
needed to effectively
control both physical and
virtual. Few large
organizations seek to
virtualize all of their
servers due to the
performance hit of
v...
As cloud computing
becomes more commonplace,
creating a secure method
to bridge the gap between
existing data centers and
remote sources of compute
capacity is being more
and more important. The
ability to efficiently
and securely tap into
remote cloud resources is ...
Cloud technologies offer
many benefits over
traditional IT systems,
especially when managing
the size and vastness of
unstructured data and
unpredictable growth in
IT environments. But when
does it make sense to
adopt cloud technologies
and migrate a set of your
