Once an organization sets up a Linux server, they must tackle the complex process of migrating Unix-based applications to this new server. In this expert E-Guide, brought to you by SearchEnterpriseLinux.com and Arrow, you will discover how to get started on a Unix-to-Linux migration. 

Virtualization basically means inserting a software layer between your hardware and your operating system. This decouples the operating system from the hardware and allows you to run many operating systems at the same time on top of that same physical piece of hardware. Read this short paper to learn about the benefits of using virtual servers. 

This paper will detail how to control and manage MIPS usage by employing a systematic, repeatable approach that uses powerful technology and a proven process and expertise. 

MySpace knows better than anyone the high demands that consumers can make on application and web servers. It maintains two sets of servers depending on application transaction load. Even so, continued transaction growth on these servers was resulting in poor performance. MySpace decided to give Fusion-io a try. 

Latency is an important metric that should be considered when evaluating web application delivery solutions. Through tests performed, Citrix NetScaler exhibited very low latencies and was at least 3x fast than F5 BIG-IP in almost all test scenarios. 

This paper discusses the use of industry standard servers, with an abundance of CPU and memory as storage controllers by leveraging industry standard hardware and general purpose software to create a high performance storage architecture. 

Based on open source software and powerful Sun hardware technology, the Sun Business Intelligence Solution for Web Infrastructure provides an easy to manage, enterprise-class, and highly scalable Business Intelligence and Data Warehousing solution that features a low total cost of ownership. 

Today’s data centers and cloud computing environments require increased I/O performance to support large-scale applications such as databases, web servers, e-commerce applications, file servers, and email. This whitepaper focuses on the performance benefits of using the Adaptec MaxIQ™ SSD Cache Performance Solution. 

Server virtualization is a tremendously valuable technology, but as it becomes widely adopted, organizations face new obstacles to managing storage that have significant impact upon Total Cost of Ownership. The Taneja Group examines these challenges and reviews Citrix StorageLink, a solution that maximizes the use of existing networked storage. 

This videocast sponsored by Dell and Intel featuring virtualization experts, Brian Madden and Gabe Knuth, discusses the top 15 reasons why virtual desktop projects fail. Discover the considerations to make when virtualizing desktops, like hidden costs, implementation planning and user needs.
