Desktop virtualization is a suite of technologies that remove the physical desktop, operating system and computing device physically sitting on the desktop, and aggregates those resources in the data center. Read this whitepaper to learn the benefits and immediate cost savings of these technologies to your organization's data center. 

The support team for Microsoft SQL Server has published guidelines for virtualizing this database engine. Read this paper to learn how to move forward with the process and create supported SQL Server virtual machines (VMs) that can be hosted on Dell PowerEdge servers. 

More and more organizations are implementing server virtualization to enhance efficiency and resource utilization within their data centers. However, provisioning and managing storage within the virtual environment can be complicated and time consuming. This paper presents a line of storage solutions that simplify and accelerate server processes. 

Virtualizing your servers enhances server consolidation and provides easier server management. It might also introduce new availability requirements for your applications. Your virtual environment must be able to quickly recover from physical server failures. This paper introduces SAN solutions that work with VMware to deliver high availability. 

This paper examins several factors that limit the capacity of your data storage system and how they contribute to the true cost of storage. 

Centralized virtual desktops optimize the efficiency, security and flexibility of any PC environment. This white paper will look at the current cost of PC management and will explore how VDI can significantly reduce operational costs, and how TCO can vary depending on industry and user requirements. 

This site features case studies of customers who've used Citrix XenDesktop products and solutions to great success. 

Learn how desktop virtualization greatly eases the pains of desktop management and deployment projects by centralizing all of your desktops, allowing all of your users access from any connected location (WAN, LAN, or home), completely lock down endpoints, and reduce service costs. 

This presentation transcript details an approach to optimize your virtualized infrastructure performance. Learn how to leverage key performance indicators and cross-domain analytics to plan for future capacity demands and improve service levels. Discover the secret to managing your VMware infrastructure performance for optimal resource utilization. 

Thinking of making the move to “total enterprise virtualization?" Here are some interesting points of view about virtualization you should know coming from the vantage point of a storage virtualization pioneer, DataCore Software. 

Read this white paper for a discussion of the many benefits of virtualization, how it has evolved, and how it intersects with data center optimization strategies. 

This white paper describes the key infrastructure management challenges facing IT managers today. It then discusses how IT teams can improve the economics of infrastructure management by taking advantage of integrated, automated performance analysis and fault isolation technologies.
