ABSTRACT:
Virtualization is one of the hottest areas of IT for 2008 and beyond, with its ability to deliver an efficient and dynamic IT infrastructure in support of highly available and agile business environments. However, the virtualization technology itself is just part of the solution - many IT organizations are challenged by virtualization deployments because they are unable to handle the changes to people and processes that virtualization requires. Join EMA Research Director Andi Mann and Opalis President and CEO Todd DeLaughter as they discuss critical problems and solutions for efficiently managing people and processes, and a real-world example of customer success in virtual management with IT Process Automation.

During this half-hour Webinar, we will discuss:

  • How virtualization creates new issues for people, process, and technology
  • Key impacts of these issues to business and IT stakeholders
  • Best practices for solving these important new requirements
  • Key outcomes of automation and integration in a virtual environment
  • The real-life experiences of these solutions in IT organizations
  • If you have deployed or are planning to deploy virtualization within your IT infrastructure, then this is a must-see event that will show you how IT Process Automation can help overcome critical people and process issues, to ensure virtualization success.
