Virtualising your mission-critical applicationsguest24ab95c
1) The document outlines seven key things that must be considered for successful virtualization of mission-critical applications. These include aligning projects with business goals, creating a full inventory, monitoring pre-virtualization performance, thinking beyond just consolidation, right-sizing virtual resources, decoupling hypervisors from management tools, and monitoring the end-user experience.
2) It emphasizes the importance of understanding current infrastructure, workloads, and licensing before virtualizing. Performance monitoring of applications pre-virtualization can identify suitable candidates.
3) The document recommends using third-party management tools that provide a unified view of both physical and virtual environments and can monitor from an end-user perspective across systems.
EvoApp's Bermuda platform addresses the challenges of big data by enabling real-time analysis of massive datasets through iterative, ad-hoc querying of both structured and unstructured data in a cloud-native environment.

Run Book Automation with PlateSpin OrchestrateNovell
his session will describe how to use PlateSpin Orchestrate for tasks beyond virtualization management. Run Book Automation can support the IT operation in a variety of processes, including monitoring, ticket enrichment, problem diagnosis, change and repair, optimization and virtualization, system management and disaster recovery. IDC predicts that data center management will be required to implement higher automation in all fields of system operation.
This session will show what the typical use cases for Run Book Automation are, how PlateSpin Orchestrate fits the requirement for an automation implementation platform, and where in the enterprise IT infrastructure it can be implemented organically and in manageable steps.
A number of implementation examples, such as a disaster recovery implementation for SAP components, prove that automation is not necessarily a huge step, and that even limited projects can lead to a quick return on investment. Implementation details in code and project examples, a technical demo and a tour of the existing example code will conclude the session.

Similar to Finding Virtual Coins in the Couch (20)
The document discusses different options for providing mobile file access and sharing for employees. Consumer-grade cloud services are easy for users but lack security controls. Enterprise cloud services provide more security but require duplicating management efforts and often have empty data repositories. Hybrid cloud/on-premise solutions have similar issues and still require separate storage and management. The best option is an on-premise, file system integrated solution that leverages existing files, systems, processes and controls rather than requiring new infrastructure and management.
