When IT professionals make massive investments in the virtualized data center, financial controls to contain sprawl and maintain control are essential. This white paper shows you how to do so by implementing chargeback. 

The very same virtualization infrastructure you use for your servers today can be naturally extended to support the hosting of desktops as well. As a result, users gain the flexibility of connecting to a well-managed desktop from virtually any network endpoint. But how do you get there? 

This paper will discuss the 5 areas of Virtualisation technology and introduce you to a virtualized framework solution from Virtustream that will not only provide the maximum ROI, but will address issues from a business perspective as well as an IT perspective, with a constant eye on the calculator for any business investment - your TCO. 

This eSeminar will provide you with the information that you need to best implement SSDs and achieve the optimal ROI and service level improvements that you require. 

Please read this presentation transcript featuring Greg Shulz and Jon Flower. Greg is the author of the book, The Green and Virtual Data Center, and is the founder of Server and Storage IO. Jon is Vice President of technology at Adaptec. Greg discusses with John various issues pertaining to energy efficiency. 

This paper examines a new approach to data center cooling known as "phase change" or "two-phase" low-pressure pumped refrigerant cooling. It details the advantages of this approach over traditional computer room air conditioning (CRAC) methods, and it identifies the specific benefits. 

This paper shows how next-generation Sun servers, based on the Intel Xeon processor 5500 series, allow IT organizations to meet these challenges by delivering game-changing performance and virtualization improvements that help enable companies to leverage best practices for IT management, application deployment, work processes, and cost control. 

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. 

Many organizations understand they need cost-visibility or a more formal chargeback process in order to further expand their virtual data centers. The challenge is where to begin and how to implement an automated solution. 

The Dell Client Energy Savings Calculator is intended to provide a tool that will allow customers to estimate the energy consumed by a computer over a year's time and the resulting cost to operate the system over that period. 

To help control costs, improve business agility, and remain secure and in compliance, many IT organizations are taking steps to transition to a truly dynamic infrastructure. Microsoft® System Center is a family of leading IT management solutions that helps IT departments proactively plan, deploy, manage, and optimize an IT environment. 

Watch this webinar to learn best practices for enterprise-level server consolidation by leveraging next-generation server platforms developed jointly by Sun and Intel. 

This podcast will cover snapshots and how they make backup operations more efficient. It will also reveal what factors you should consider before implementing snapshots. Listen to this podcast for an overview of how snapshot technologies can drive efficiencies in your data center.
