Software-Defined Networking, System Z, Active Directory Administration, AWS Clouds, and Enterprise VDI.
Welcome to the VoicesOn Friday Roundup. This week, we bring you white papers on Software-Defined Networking, System Z, Active Directory Administration, AWS Clouds, and Enterprise VDI.
Realizing the Power of SDN
Network design and architectures have remained largely unchanged for more than a decade. Many enterprises cannot invest funding and resources to drive business innovation because of the high cost of supporting an aging networking environment. While applications and systems have evolved to meet the demands of a world where real time rules, the underlying network infrastructure has not kept pace. This white paper gives an overview of Software-Defined Networking (SDN) and how HP is leveraging SDN to deliver Virtual Application Networks in the enterprise.
Study Reveals ROI of 199% with New Systems
Applications represent three of the top four software concerns of IT executives. Organizations should consider the varying nature of their application workloads in order to make smarter choices. In the real world, it is a decision on evaluation of availability, stability, and agility that will determine the best infrastructure approach for an organization's environment. In this white paper, Forrester conducts in-depth interviews with executives from five IBM System Z customers that have adopted System Z as part of their overall application deployment strategy.
Active Directory Administration: Getting to a Single Solution that Manages Everything
User accounts, Group Policy, Sites and Services, Security Auditing, even Backup and Recovery: Active Directory is a complex beast with a menagerie of disparate tools. Need to adjust a user account? Launch Active Directory Users and Computers. Troubleshooting a security event? Bring up Event Viewer. No other mission-critical service in your datacenter requires so many task-oriented micro-tools to get the job done. AD shouldn't either.
Microsoft SharePoint on the AWS Cloud - Learn How!
This paper covers two common deployment scenarios for SharePoint Server-intranet and public website-and how to run them in an AWS cloud environment. It discusses how you can leverage different services that AWS provides (network setup, server setup, security, and deployment) and configure them specifically to run enterprise-class software like SharePoint Server at scale in a secure fashion that is easier to maintain. Download the Microsoft SharePoint Server on AWS: Reference Architecture whitepaper today to learn more.
Delivering Transformative Value to Enterprise VDI
For many organizations, the benefits of thin clients are well established. These devices allow organizations to deploy an endpoint that limits use to a task at hand, minimizes security issues, and in theory is more easily managed than a PC. In fact, traditional thin client vendors have made this argument explicitly: lower long-term management costs theoretically lower the total cost of ownership (TCO). As organizations move toward BYOD (bring your own device) and mobility solutions, the demand for a high performance, highly secure and easily manageable thin client is accelerating. Without it, customers considering VDI need to consider not only the high cost of the device, but also the continuing high cost of IT staff and management. Download this white paper to read about how to best break through the long-running price/performance and manageability barriers to deliver a purpose-built endpoint solution for HDX: a challenge and opportunity for companies with a vision of allowing access to apps and data from anywhere from any device.
