Consolidating and virtualizing application, web, and database tiers for enterprise Oracle® Siebel 8.0 CRM applications is one approach to help reduce costs and enhance flexibility. Read this paper to learn about Sun's platform for the Oracle Siebel CRM software stack. 

In planning storage solutions for Oracle database applications, Sun Storage 7000 Unified Storage Systems offer a range of performance and scalability options, and can be configured to meet specific application requirements for capacity, performance, and reliability. 

This white paper proposes a spectrum of reference configurations using Sun servers based on Intel processors, the broad range of Sun storage systems and appliances, and the VMware suite of virtualization products to configure cost-effective information systems for these businesses. 

This video white paper explores the relative pros and cons of deploying pre-built analytic applications from Oracle versus building a custom data warehouse against Oracle E-Business Suite, PeopleSoft, Siebel or similar systems. 

The Intel Xeon processor 5500 series with Intel® Intelligent Power Technology, delivers up to 50 percent lower idle power. By replacing aging single-core processor-based servers with new, more energy-efficient servers, you can gain capacity to grow and to increase IT performance using fewer servers. 

Virtualization adds a whole new level of complexity to the IT infrastructure, introducing new challenges in every step of the process - from planning to configuration and management. Read how effective service management can help tackle the challenges of virtualization in this white paper from BMC Software. 

This IDC White Paper examines the roles of virtualization and automation in improving operational efficiencies. Delivering end-to-end service visibility across both physical and virtual infrastructures is a key requirement for preventing service outages or failures. 

Many organizations lack visibility into the physical and virtual infrastructure in their data center, preventing them from achieving effective infrastructure management. This webcast explores how dependency mapping addresses this issue by enabling you to track and control configurations, model and test proposed changes and execute failure analysis. 

This paper proposes several sample virtualization architectures based on Dell's server and storage products. Architectures are divided into three main categories: Small, Medium, and Large. These categories are based on the features and capacity of each product, as well as the complexity of the overall architecture. 

This paper covers projects involving new construction or upgrades to the data center’s physical infrastructure - the power, cooling, and other physical systems that house and protect the data center’s IT equipment. 

APC® by Schneider Electric enables you to adapt your data center to the changing needs of a business. With the same InfraStruXure® HD-Ready architecture, you can start out with a low-density data center, and later scale up to high density as needed without picking up the phone to call for more capacity, engineering or quotes. 

This Presentation Transcript shares strategies for analyzing CRM data, finding lost revenue opportunities, improving sales forecasting and optimizing overall campaign effectiveness. 

Direct PCI Express (PCIe) attached flash storage offers unparalleled performance levels and vastly outperforms SAS/SATA-attached flash storage solutions. However, such PCIe attached flash storage cards have many restrictions. Read this white paper to learn about an enhanced PCIe flash storage solution from Dolphin, in partnership with Fusion-IO.
