PRESENTATION TRANSCRIPT:
If you are considering a migration from Sun Solaris to Linux-based systems, we would like to help you understand how a migration would impact your environment. In six steps, Ryan Hagen, Solutions Architect for Mainline Information Systems™, will show you how a successful migration is achieved.
ASSESSMENT TOOL:
This assessment tool compares the projected costs of growing and maintaining a current Unix based server environment with the costs of migrating to a Red Hat Enterprise Linux server environment.
WHITE PAPER:
The migration from proprietary UNIX and legacy hardware and software-based environments to Linux on x86 Intel architecture (IA) is an effective way to take cost and complexity out of IT.
CASE STUDY:
In October 2003, DaimlerChrysler South Africa decided that significant cost savings could be achieved by migrating its mission critical systems onto a contemporary low cost platform and in the process remove the mainframe. This case study presents the challenges the company faced as well as the solution and benefits achieved.
EGUIDE:
Once you know how to make a business case for migration, learn how to train your Unix staff to manage Linux environments. Find out about key differences between the two operating systems and provide your team with tactics for optimal backup and performance monitoring.
WHITE PAPER:
This expert paper explains how migrating from UNIX-based systems to Linux standard-based servers can simplify the virtualization of your critical applications, enabling improved performance, reliability and agility.
WHITE PAPER:
This paper examines the flexibility that WPARs offer IT professionals in their virtualized UNIX server environments and review how WPARs are different from other partitioning technologies.
WHITE PAPER:
This Gabriel Consulting report research report focuses on the survey results and discusses IBM’s Power Systems virtualization milestones and touches on the implications for the Unix server market.
EBOOK:
When migrating from Unix to Linux, the most important case you will need to make is not a technical case but a business case. It’s all about the bottom line. How will the business benefit by moving over? What is the total cost of ownership and return on investment for the migration? Read on to learn more!
