Web Security Services: Delegating Security Responsibility to the Cloud
By Webroot | 6/3/2012
Few readers need to be told that the Internet is a dangerous place. Anyone in the IT field is aware that viruses, spam, and malicious Web sites exist. Knowledge of these attacks and vulnerabilities was the domain of specialized security gurus just a few years ago. But the need to understand computer security has spread beyond the domain of specialists. Today, even IT end users need to be aware of threats and countermeasures to some degree.

Improving Productivity in the Connected Enterprise Through Collaboration
By Avaya | 6/2/2012
In the market for collaborative applications, a large convergence is beginning to take hold, and the consumerization of IT is central to this movement. The technologies that people use as consumers are impacting the way employees, customers, and partners want to interact and collaborate at work. People want to take the same technology experiences that are available at home and plug them into their daily work lives. This movement is setting worker expectations as both employees and corporate consumers. Workers need to have the choice and flexibility to consume the applications they want, where they want, and on their preferred device. Read on.

New Mobility Requires a New Network Strategy
By Avaya | 6/2/2012
Computing has gone through several major transitions through the ages, each of which raised the value of the network and dramatically lowered the cost of computing. In the years after its birth in the mainframe era, the computing industry shifted to client/server and then Internet computing. Today, we are beginning yet another major computing revolution: the shift to mobile computing. This revolution already allows us to carry mini computers, called “smartphones,” in our pockets. This shift will drive down the cost of computing even further and drive up the value of the network, forever changing its role in organisations. Read on.

Is your data center ready for virtualisation? Important power considerations for virtualised IT environments
By Eaton | 31/1/2012
Virtualisation brings the potential to deliver dramatic savings in terms of server count, footprint, power consumption and cooling requirements for data centers. For all its advantages though, virtualisation also brings some unique challenges. The power and cooling infrastructure—which may have been quite sufficient for pre-virtualization needs—could easily become inadequate when data center performance patterns are radically altered. The good news is that there are practical and affordable ways to address these challenges and improve data center efficiency in the process. This paper looks at some of the power-related challenges and the readily available technologies to address them.

Increasing Uptime and Efficiency with Switched PDUs - Two ways to use rack PDUs for more than just distributing power
By Eaton | 31/1/2012
Power distribution units (PDUs) play an essential role in delivering power safely and at appropriate voltages to servers and other network resources. A particular class of power distribution units known as rack Switched PDUs, however, is capable of performing additional functions that can help data center managers improve the efficiency and reliability of their IT infrastructure. This paper provides a brief introduction to rack Switched PDUs and describes two underappreciated yet powerful ways to take advantage of their advanced functionality.

The Role of UPS Power Management in Virtualisation and Cloud Computing
By Eaton | 31/1/2012
Virtualisation in IT has brought many significant benefits and changed the way data centres are designed and operated. In a virtualised data centre, applications, services and databases run on fewer physical servers than before and the operator makes significant savings in power consumption, cooling and infrastructure expenditure.

IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Virtual Environments - Advanced Data Protection for VMware ESX Environments
By IBM | 7/12/2011
Server virtualization is taking hold in companies of all sizes, and VMware is one of the more popular hypervisors adopted by IT organizations. While VMware server virtualization continues to gain momentum, IT organizations still have some hurdles to overcome if they are to deploy virtualization more widely across the enterprise. Backup and recovery of virtual server environments ranks highly as a top initiative and area of investment—a major focus for a growing population of corporate IT organizations expanding the use of virtualization to incorporate more tier-1 production applications. This paper introduces Tivoli Storage Manager for Virtual Environments (TSM for VE), IBM’s solution for optimizing backup and recovery in VMware installations.
