Many businesses are totally dependent on critical computer-based services for their operations. Yet only 50 percent of businesses have a plan for maintaining the availability of these computing services in the face of unplanned computer downtime.

Companies have invested huge amounts in new applications to deliver better and more cost-effective services to their customers. However, studies have shown that more than 40% of software applications are released with critical defects.

In today's highly-competitive markets, more and more procurement and sourcing professionals are looking to streamline processes and drive superior performance. In the quest for higher savings, more spend under management and increased compliance, sourcing executives must turn to their own repository of spend data to effectively identify opportunities for savings and gain a deeper understanding of their corporate spend.

This white paper demonstrates that a data grid infrastructure, built with clustered cahing, can help you avoid "weak link" vulnerabilities that can sabotage SOA strategies. Discover why the data grid offers improved data access that can create a competition

The Vertica Analytic Database is the only database built from scratch to handle today's heavy business intelligence workloads. In customer benchmarks, Vertica has been shown to manage terabytes of data running on extraordinarily low-cost hardware and answers queries 50 to 200 times faster than competing row-oriented databases and specialized analytic hardware. This document summarizes the key aspects of Vertica's technology that enable such dramatic performance benefits, and compares the design of Vertica to other popular relational systems.

If you are responsible for BI (Business Intelligence) in your organization, there are three questions you should ask yourself: - Are there applications in my organization for combining operational processes with analytical insight that we can't deploy because of performance and capacity constraints with our existing BI environment?

It's time to take control, increase efficiency, and simplify operations by leveraging a unified fabric.

The ability to deliver and assure optimum availability to clinical systems and data is critical to the success of healthcare organizations. As providers become increasingly dependent on electronic medical records and medical delivery technologies, they must keep those applications, databases and networks available and accessible-no matter what. This white paper shows how information availability solutions ensure the availability and accessibility of AIX data and applications, regardless of planned or unplanned interruptions.

Appliances are taking up permanent residence in the heart of the enterprise data center - the data warehouse (DW). DW appliances - in all their bewildering proliferation - are moving into the mainstream. The reason? They are preconfigured, modular devices that support quick deployment for DW killer applications

Traditional IT Management approach lacks a detailed understanding of the processes and transactions supported by business applications. Such management tools are generally focused on managing individual technologies.

Oracle Real User Experience Insight (RUEI) is designed for measuring, analyzing, improving and controlling the availability and performance of internet, extranet and intranet deployment scenarios, including E-business applications, Web transactions and ERP systems. This white paper discusses Oracle RUEI from a technical perspective, providing information concerning product architecture, technical specifications, and some practical information on configuration and deployment considerations.

This IDC White Paper presents a detailed analysis of the value proposition associated with moving across different virtualization adoption maturity levels. The following figures and tables compare business value accruing from the move from an unvirtualized environment to a virtualized environment or from a basic virtualization scenario to an advanced virtualization scenario.

Revenue assurance analysts at a top-tier US-based carrier studied this every day. Primarily focused on detecting fraud, revenue sharing contract violations and incomplete revenue collections, they had the need to query and analyze call detail record (CDR) databases that grow by millions of new CDRs every day.

In a world of growing data volumes and shrinking IT budgets, it is critical to think differently about the efficiency of your database and storage infrastructure. The Vertica Analytic Database is a high-performance, scalable and cost-effective solution that can bring dramatic savings in hardware, storage and operational costs.

This document provides guidance on how to design and architect a scalable Microsoft applications mixed workload solution on highly available VMware vSphere 4 virtual infrastructure and NetApp unified storage. It highlights the flexibility of leveraging either a Fibre Channel (FC) protocol-based storage solutions or IP-based solutions (that is, iSCSI and NFS) for hosting virtual machines, and also describes the NetApp backup and recovery solution for the Microsoft applications.

Configuration Management is at the heart of the IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) and forms the foundation for Business Service Management (BSM). In fact, it is safe to say that neither the ITIL IT Service Management (ITSM) processes nor the BSM functions that leverage ITSM can be efficiently carried out without accurate configuration and dependency information.

There are success stories of businesses that have implemented Business Service Management (BSM) with well-documented, bottom-line results. What do these organizations know that their discouraged counterparts don't?

For over a decade, IT organizations have been plagued by high data warehousing costs, with millions of dollars spent annually on specialized, high-end hardware and DBA personnel overhead for performance tuning. The root cause: using data warehouse database management (DBMS) software, like Oracle and SQLServer that were designed 20-30 years ago to handle write-intensive OLTP workloads, not query-intensive analytic workloads.

Configuration Management is at the heart of the IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL®) and forms the foundation for Business Service Management (BSM). In fact, it is safe to say that neither the ITIL IT Service Management (ITSM) processes nor the BSM functions that leverage ITSM can be efficiently carried out without accurate configuration and dependency information.

Continuous member service is an important deliverable for credit unions, and is probably the most obvious sign to members that a credit union has its priorities set appropriately. While data recovery has always been important, there are trends in the industry today that put your data recovery strategy in the spotlight. The continued growth in assets and members means that the impact of downtime is affecting a larger base and is therefore potentially much more costly. Combined with the trend towards consolidation, the cost of downtime may in fact be prohibitive. Learn how new data protection and recovery technologies are making a huge impact on downtime for credit unions that depend on AIX-hosted applications.
