whitepaper Opportunities and Challenges with the Convergence of Data Center Networks13/11/09 Juniper Networks
  Legacy architectures constrain today's data centers as they attempt to cope with the exponential increase in applications, servers, storage, and network traffic. By rethinking the network from the ground up, Juniper Networks provides customers with a long-term, future proof strategy to develop a single, converged data center fabric with the flexibility and performance to scale to super data centers, while continuing to drive down the cost and complexity of managing the data center information infrastructure.

Juniper's vision for cloud computing paves the way for super data centers that harness the scale to dynamically allocate any resource -including routing, switching, security services, storage systems, appliances, and servers - without compromising performance. Juniper is well positioned to deliver the next-generation data center fabric that enables converged storage area network (SAN), local area network (LAN), and high-performance computing (HPC) clusters to be built and managed as a single logical infrastructure. 		 sponsored by
whitepaper Security Considerations for Cloud-Ready Data Centers13/11/09 Juniper Networks
  Data centers have evolved significantly as organizations consolidate servers, applications, and other resources. Technologies such as server virtualization, distributed application tools, and IP-based storage are helping organizations maximize their data center resources, while at the same time making it more difficult to protect these critical assets against cyber theft and increasing levels of malware, in addition to new vulnerabilities introduced by data center technologies themselves.

To effectively manage the new risks, organizations should reevaluate their data center security practices and implement new network-centric capabilities to ensure the integrity of their services. A network-centric approach to providing security in the data center delivers benefits such as scalability, unified security policy definition and enforcement, visibility into application traffic, and reduced operations overhead. 		 sponsored by
whitepaper Replication for Dummies2009-11-30 Sybase
  Looking for information on Database Replication, then Replication for Dummies is the resource for you. Database replication, which is the distribution of information across a series of database servers that may be located in the same place or scattered across the globe, was once reserved for large, sophisticated organizations sporting the big IT budgets. Thankfully, for a variety of reasons, the past few years have seen wider application of database replication solutions. This book provides you with a basic understanding of this important technology, along with a series of best practices for you to consider when implementing a database replication strategy.

whitepaper Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery with CA Recovery Management and VMware Infrastructure2009-11-17 CA XOsoft
  The expansion of IT systems to support the growth of mission-critical business processes and services is fueling two parallel trends. One is the increase in the deployment of new applications and the provision of access to them and their information in ways that are economical, flexible, fast and well managed. The other is an increase in the implementation of business continuity (BC), disaster recovery (DR) and high availability (HA) initiatives aimed at safeguarding these applications. As such, many organizations are particularly challenged with simultaneously supporting and protecting their growing farms of missioncritical business applications with cost-effective BC and DR programs.

whitepaper Planning for Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Using CA Recovery Management Solutions and VMware vSphere Cloud Operating Systems for High Availability2009-11-17 CA XOsoft
  Today, IT organizations face significant growth of mission-critical business processes and services, fueling two parallel trends. One is the increase in the deployment of new applications and the IT infrastructure required to support them, in ways that are economical, flexible, fast and well managed. The other is an increase in the implementation of business continuity (BC), disaster recovery (DR) and high availability (HA) initiatives aimed at safeguarding these applications and the data generated by their use. As such, many organizations are particularly challenged with simultaneously supporting and protecting their growing farms of mission-critical business applications and servers with cost-effective BC and DR programs.

whitepaper Solutions Brief:  Dell EqualLogic PS Series and Microsoft WS2008 Hyper-V:  Enabling The Next Generation Virtualized Data Center2009-11-04 Dell EqualLogic
  Server virtualization is one of the most significant technology trends in IT environments today, and a key enabler of the next generation virtualized data center. Server virtualization relies on hypervisors to provide the abstraction layer between the operating systems and the physical hardware, allowing IT administrators the ability to consolidate server capacity, increase hardware utilization, and optimize their infrastructure all while improving service levels and network security.

whitepaper Solution Brief: Dell Equalogic PS Series Can Offer Robust, High-Availability Infrastructure for Microsoft's 2008 R2 HYPER-V2009-11-04 Dell EqualLogic
  Virtualization has become a popular IT strategy for enhancing hardware utilization, helping organizations decrease power, cooling, and data center footprint costs, and enhance the flexibility of IT. While virtualization can offer a wide range of IT benefits, running multiple applications on each physical server can place availability at risk. If a physical server fails, all the virtualized applications running on that server could become unavailable. Even temporary downtime can impair worker productivity and jeopardize revenue.
