Virtualization enables strategic benefits, but significantly impacts infrastructure, operations and configuration management. Virtualization’s additional complexity and new management challenges can adversely affect TCO, reduce service levels, threaten security and pose compliance issues, as well as introduce new problems like VM sprawl. In this session, you'll learn how virtualization impacts traditional management disciplines, and their supporting people, processes, and technology. Participants will learn about the next generation of Enterprise Virtualization Management, and how it dramatically simplifies the management of growing virtual environments. Topics include eliminating sprawl, reining in snapshots, effectively dealing with offline VMs, and virtual appliances. You will also learn how to support distributed provisioning, delegated administration and self-service operations for enterprise virtual environments.kennyo wrote: Actually, Egenera's CEO is staying on as Board chairman. As the company transitions to be a multi-platform player, the feeling is to have management who are experts about software, the converged infrastructure market, and familiar with the players in the space. Ergo the new CEO, and ergo the new levels of backing from investors. The company is still hiring in its field and OEM spaces, and in conversations with multiple IHV partners.
