EDUCATIONAL SESSIONS

Data Center Virtualization

Virtualization enables a data center to operate with greater agility at a much lower cost. While most people think of virtual infrastructure as primarily relating to servers, it also applies to storage, backups, networks, and disaster recovery. All five of these core elements, in fact, are intertwined and codependent within a virtual infrastructure environment. Today, the increased practice of hosting virtual PCs within the data center is extending the function of virtual infrastructure to virtual clients as well.

Please Join Cisco and INX Inc. for this powerful presentation and discussion.

Windows Server 2008 Hyper V

Server virtualization, also known as hardware virtualization, is a hot topic in the IT world because of the
potential for serious economic benefits. Server virtualization enables multiple operating systems to run on a single physical machine as virtual machines (VMs). With server virtualization, you can consolidate
workloads across multiple underutilized server machines onto a smaller number of machines. Fewer physical machines can lead to reduced costs through lower hardware, energy, and management overhead, plus the creation of a more dynamic IT infrastructure. Join us as we discuss Hyper-V, an integral feature of the Windows Server 2008 operating system.
