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.
Novell ZENworks technologies have been in use for over a decade, and the future has never been brighter.

Finally, we'll provide a roadmap review that details upcoming releases for other products in the Endpoint Management portfolio.
Consolidation Planning: Getting the Most from Your Virtualization InitiativeNovell
During this session, you'll get an in-depth look at the principles and best practices of planning a server consolidation project. You will learn how to ensure projects meet goals such as minimizing new hardware purchases or rack space, how and when to use different strategies such as scale up versus scale out, and how to prove those goals were met after the project is finished.
Application virtualization is a very hot topic these days. Using this method to provision software to your endpoints allows you to control how the software interacts with your systems. It also allows you to avoid the potential for new applications to disrupt software that is already installed. Attend this session to learn how Novell recommends that you take advantage of these new capabilities—and how you can quickly and easily start to virtualize software releases in your organization.
