vCenter Site Recovery Manager: Architecting a DR SolutionRackspace
VMware’s vCenter Site Recovery Manager is the market-leading disaster-recovery management product. It ensures the simplest and most reliable disaster protection for all virtualized applications. However, it is not a turn-key DR solution. Architecting your SRM solution requires deep thought and heavy planning. This presentation will help you with planning and architecting your SRM solution as well as addressing specific configuration and installation challenges. Our goal is to help you deploy and maintain a solid SRM solution to enable your DR Plan.

Virtual Space Race: How IT with The Right Stuff Creates a Competitive AdvantageSoftchoice Corporation
The rise of mobile and cloud has empowered more front office workers to take control over their own IT destiny. This study answers the question “is IT equipped to handle the implications of this shift?”
Unified communications and collaboration tools have the power to accelerate productivity and bring people together, however, most UC implementations fail to live up to expectations. This study reveals where most organizations go wrong when it comes to UC and collaboration, and what they can do to boost user adoption, productivity, and work satisfaction.

Implementing a Disaster Recovery Solution using VMware Site Recovery Manager ...Paula Koziol
IBM Spectrum Virtualize delivers business continuity capabilities using a stretched cluster configuration together with VMware Site Recovery Manager (SRM). The result is an end-to-end disaster recovery solution for organizations of all sizes. Join this session to understand how IBM Spectrum Virtualize, including offerings like IBM SAN Volume Controller (SVC) and IBM Storwize Family, integrates with VMware SRM to automate and optimize disaster recovery operations. Everyone who works in mission critical environments understands the need for high availability and effective solutions for planned and unplanned outages. Organizations demand disaster recovery operations that are fully automated and can be executed in a repeatable manner, so that they are always prepared for disaster situations. This IBM-VMware solution offers SMB and enterprise customers the ability to survive a wide range of failures and enables seamless migration of applications across company sites for various planned activities, enabling zero-downtime application mobility.
Disaster Recovery Planning using Azure Site RecoveryNitin Agarwal
Disaster recovery and business continuity solutions have been historically expensive and time consuming. Microsoft Azure Site Recovery (ASR) makes Disaster Recovery (DR) planning and implementation simpler and affordable for all types of organizations.
Join our team of cloud experts for a walk through of DR and ASR basics. We'll highlight best practices for ASR deployments and help you get a sense of the costs for implementing a solution.

VMworld 2015: Monitoring and Managing Applications with vRealize Operations 6...VMworld
This year VMware vSphere 6 combined with vRealize Operations 6.1 (vR Ops 6) adds critical features to increase technical agility in the infrastructure, and reduce Mean time to Repair. With a new Automated remediation action framework in vR Ops, vSphere 6’s ability to vMotion Physical Raw Device mappings (RDMs), and a complete Management Pack Ecosystem for monitoring Infrastructure to applications, administrators have the tools needed to get to maintain 5 9’s uptime, shorten Mean Time to Repair (MTTR), and predict capacity requirements as and when the business requires.. This session will be a deep technical explanation, and live demonstration of these tools. It will give administrators a solid understanding of how they can use these tools to monitor and manage their application clusters, keep applications running during Infrastructure maintenance, and get deep holistic visibility into the entire Application ecosystem, from Storage to Networking.
VMworld 2015: Advanced SQL Server on vSphereVMworld
Microsoft SQL Server is one of the most widely deployed “apps” in the market today and is used as the database layer for a myriad of applications, ranging from departmental content repositories to large enterprise OLTP systems. Typical SQL Server workloads are somewhat trivial to virtualize; however, business critical SQL Servers require careful planning to satisfy performance, high availability, and disaster recovery requirements. It is the design of these business critical databases that will be the focus of this breakout session. You will learn how build high-performance SQL Server virtual machines through proper resource allocation, database file management, and use of all-flash storage like XtremIO. You will also learn how to protect these critical systems using a combination of SQL Server and vSphere high availability features. For example, did you know you can vMotion shared-disk Windows Failover Cluster nodes? You can in vSphere 6! Finally, you will learn techniques for rapid deployment, backup, and recovery of SQL Server virtual machines using an all-flash array.
VMworld 2015: Virtualize Active Directory, the Right Way!VMworld
Active Directory Domain Services (ADDS) allows organizations to deploy a scalable and secure directory service for managing users, resources and applications. Virtualization of ADDS has been supported for many years now, however has required careful management to avoid pitfalls around replication, time management, and access. Windows Server 2012 provides greater support for virtualization by including virtualization-safe features and support for rapid domain controller deployment.
VMworld 2015: Site Recovery Manager and Policy Based DR Deep Dive with Engine...VMworld
Policy based management greatly simplifies the work of IT Administrators making it easy to ensure that applications and VMs receive the resources, protection and functionality required. Learn about the latest enhancements of Site Recovery Manager in this space, which represent a huge step towards providing policy based DR. In this session we'll dive deep into how this approach works and how to work with them.
Not content to simply describe the Virtual Volume (VVOL) framework, this session instead examines practical use cases: How different configurations and workloads benefit from VVOLs. Learn how Storage Policy Based Management (SPBM) couples with VVOLs to provide VM configuration options not previously available. We demonstrate a handful of real-life scenarios, specifically covering how VVOLs benefits oversubscribed systems, disaster recovery preparation and multi-tenant requirements for customers. Specific configuration options and constraints are covered in detail, including how they work with underlying storage.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
