April 15 WIT.Connect: Learning from the past: Enterprise Class Appliances
Deploying new enterprise class software is one of the most difficult and costly activities data centers must support today. As businesses rely more and more upon new generations of sophisticated enterprise software solutions, we are beginning to look to the past for future solutions. In fact, the importance of the bundling strategy in the Oracle/Sun post merger roadmap surprised the market.
It is becoming clear that the business value of enterprise class bundled solutions is real and compelling. Join our panelists as they weigh-in on:
• What this all means for an industry that has been hesitant about an appliance strategy
• How organizations embrace enterprise class appliances in their current data center operations
• How enterprise class appliances accelerate business value capture to the business
