How to Ease Server Virtualization for SMB IT Staff | How to Deliver Mainframe Applications Faster and Smarter
| | | How can you determine if your company should build new products? A recent Aberdeen report showcases how the inability to exploit opportunities in the marketplace is the biggest hurdle that companies face when they try to optimize their product portfolio. Product managers must ask themselves, What product features add the most value to the customer? and Which of these features can realistically be delivered within a specified timeframe? A process that uses such quantifiable models of risk and reward allows managers to compare projects objectively to determine the best return to the company. These models also help encourage transparency and build trust and buy-in among stakeholders. | | | | | Small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) today seek the same advantages of server virtualization as large enterprises. But there are significant challenges in planning, implementing, and managing a virtualized IT infrastructure with a smaller and less specialized IT staff. SMBs need a backup and disaster recovery toolset that meets their needs in terms of features, skills, and resource utilization. Learn how with the right tools, SMBs can enjoy the same benefits that server virtualization brings to enterprise organizations. | | | | | The development and delivery of mainframe applications is changing as organizations are under increasing pressure to deliver new solutions in less time.

The IBM Rational Developer for System z Unit Test feature can greatly enhance the way organizations develop, maintain and test mainframe applications. | | | | | Given the state of the global economy, CIOs are under tremendous pressure to closely control IT costs.

An IBM study has shown that moving from a traditional infrastructure to a public cloud can yield a modest reduction in costs. However, for significant cost reductions a private cloud infrastructure is required. Learn about five 5 key areas of costs savings that are associated with every Cloud infrastructure implementation. | | | | | Various studies conducted after natural disasters such as Hurricane Katrina and other major outages have shown that an estimated 25% never reopen after such a loss, and about 50% will be out of business within two years.

It makes good financial sense to evaluate your business now, and come up with a backup plan to protect the vital core of your company. | | | | | To avoid any problems with your newsletter delivery, please add newsletters@response.webbuyersguide.com to your addressbook.
