Event Producer


Overview

  • Consolidating your data center?
  • Building a new one?
  • Adding equipment?

More than 60% of enterprises are now racing to do the same.

  • Zero-tolerance policies for downtime?
  • Operating an always-on organization?
  • Managing a highly-distributed network?

You’ve become the indispensable engine of corporate performance

  • Pushing the limits of scalability?
  • Pressured to increase reliability, security and productivity?
  • Meeting benchmarks set in boardrooms?

Welcome to the Data Center …

… and the coming crisis to those who continue on the current path.

Over built. Over layered . Overly complex. Filled with too many devices. Running too many apps. Requiring too much management. Wasting too much energy.

A jungle of inefficient silos. Inflexible equipment. Security bolted onto an ever-growing footprint. Demanding too much oversight. Providing too little control. Supporting too little growth and delivering no competitive advantage.

Looking for a new direction? Need a better roadmap? Searching for answers from “above?”

Network World, in partnership with Juniper Networks, IBM, and Nemertes Research is conducting a nationwide tour of one-day seminars on the coming of the new Data Center.

Simple. Flat, Flexible. Pools of servers surrounded by a flat, dynamically scalable network with built-in security, resource optimization, and converged storage over Ethernet.

Embracing virtualization across the infrastructure. Drawing from standards-based interfaces that efficiently and dynamically improve performance. Eliminate equipment. Shrink footprints. Lower energy demands. And simplify management.

The transition to this new data center is rippling through every industry as companies move from design-time architectures to run-time, on-demand engineering. Allowing multi-discipline teams and cross-discipline task-forces to inject change simultaneously and seamlessly across the entire enterprise .

More than new technology, it’s a new strategy and an exciting way to work. It’s the future of the Data Center. And you are invited to see it in action at this special IT Roadmap Spotlight Event compliments of Network World and Juniper Networks.
