Storage Management Strategies for the CIO
The Five Myths of Storage Management for Distributed Systems and Mainframe Environments
sponsored by Storage Decisions
ABSTRACT:
With increasing pressure to do more with fewer staff, renewed focus has been placed on infrastructure manageability, especially storage infrastructure. Those with mainframes may believe their management story to be superior to the distributed crowd, but changes including consolidation of X86 systems into LPARs are creating new challenges that the distributed computing administrators already know.
Bottom line: storage management remains a huge and growing problem in most organizations, contributing to cost, compliance, continuity and carbon issues. In this presentation, Jon Toigo examines the five myths that have developed around contemporary storage management and outlines a service-oriented strategy for bringing storage under better control.(THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE.)
