September 09, 2009 - (Free Research) This data sheet highlights the features and facts for the Sun Oracle Database Machine, the world's fastest for any type of database workload, and the only database machine that runs transaction processing applications.
February 11, 2010 - (Free Research) Protecting virtual machines is not an easy task. Existing agent-based and proxy server-based approaches to backup and recovery for VMware vSphere environments can be disruptive or limit recovery point service levels. These often require downtime to perform backups - a completely unacceptable condition in today’s 24x7 virtual datacenters.
September 09, 2009 - (Free Research) Advanced technology allows businesses to get maximum bang out of hardware buck while reducing server counts and support costs. Read this whitepaper to learn how virtualization can help your business get the most out of its server hardware.
September 09, 2009 - (Free Research) With server virtualization, you do more with less. Instead of filling your data center with underutilized boxes, you run multiple operating systems and applications on a single physical machine. You make the most of your space while taking full advantage of your hardware investment. Read this whitepaper to learn more about these benefits.
September 02, 2009 - (Free Research) W. Curtis Preston, executive editor of the Storage Media Group and independent backup expert, discusses the various options available today for backing up virtual machines including VMware's VCB, third-party products, and the ways that backup software products are evolving to ease virtual machine backups.
October 30, 2007 - (Free Research) Read this case study to learn how Kroll Factual Data evaluated Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager and is using it to manage Microsoft Virtual Server–based virtual machines, accelerate and improve virtual machine provisioning, and streamline disaster recovery.
July 24, 2009 - (Free Research) This white paper presents an example configuration and best practices for deploying and configuring a highly available architecture using an example solution configuration and then discussing how the configuration helps in maximizing uptime.
March 31, 2009 - (Free Research) Until recently, it was difficult for manufacturers to obtain a true picture of what was happening on the shop floor. Real-time, accurate data reflecting production activity, planned production schedules, quality checks, machine breakdowns, inventory levels or a shortage of materials made it a challenge for shop floor management to keep track..
February 17, 2010 - (Free Research) In this paper we compare the major differences between three software deployment models: hardware appliances, virtual machine (VM) appliances and multitenant software‐as‐a‐service (Saas) – against a traditional software delivery model. The goal is to help independent software vendors (ISVs) make informed decisions about these deployment models.
January 29, 2010 - (Free Research) By providing automatic end-to-end mapping of virtual machines to the physical servers and storage supporting them, virtualization-aware EMC Navisphere Manager software on Dell/EMC CX4 Series storage arrays helps dramatically increase resource efficiency and simplify storage administration tasks such as problem diagnosis and change management.
February 02, 2010 - (Free Research) Tracking and identifying virtual machines on physical hosts or sorting out the source of I/O bottlenecks requires administrators to do a lot of investigative work. Software management tools can help, but well developed business processes are also important. Learn some tips and tricks to make managing virtual environments a little bit easier.
January 25, 2010 - (Free Research) Traditionally, backing up virtual machines (VMs) involves taking a snapshot of the VM, moving that data to a staging area, and then copying the snapshot from the staging area to the dedicated backup medium. This podcast covers a product that leverages new capabilities to eliminate the staging area traditionally involved in VM backup.
March 28, 2008 - (Free Research) This Focus profile describes Microsoft Hyper-V and VMM. It discusses Microsoft's server virtualization history, the origins of the Microsoft virtual server technologies and solutions, and the architecture of those solutions.
