Private Cloud Deployment with Microsoft and Novell: Driving Transformational Architecture in the Enterprise
The evolution of cloud computing promises significant efficiency gains and cost savings over today’s distributed architecture model. Many IT leaders, however, face tough choices about what to deploy to evolve their data center while, at the same time, leveraging existing assets and managing to a flat or often declining budget. Never before has it been more important for vendors to work more closely with their customers to address such challenges. In this session, you will learn about Microsoft and Novell’s ground-breaking partnership to drive customer-centric interoperability, and how the companies’ solutions are enabling a private cloud architecture for heterogeneous environments.
Topics to be covered:
- An overview of how the companies came together to solve critical customer challenges around virtualization, systems management, and federated identity
- A background on cloud computing and what IT leaders should think about and look for
- Market insight and perceptions about cloud computing
- How the Microsoft-Novell solutions pave the way to private cloud deployment
