A Real World Approach to Virtualization

Description:
All of us have heard why we should use virtualization technologies -- to provide a proven platform for server consolidation, improve application availability, enhance disaster recovery, increase responsiveness to application provisioning and allow legacy systems to co-exist with new environments. Many have already jumped into the use of this technology, some are still evaluating it and the rest are still on the sidelines.

What will be covered:

We will explore what is possible, and what makes practical sense, all within the constraints of modern budgets
We will show you how others have approached evaluation, implementation and testing and why some initiatives have been successful while others have struggled.
We will present a structured methodology for deciding where to begin, what to expect and where to place your operational priorities.
