The Featured Five

The Five Most Popular IT Resources Right Now

 

Virtualization: Benefits, Challenges, and Solutions
The majority of IT organizations have already implemented some server virtualization, and most intend to implement more over the next year. But moving to a virtual environment can raise significant challenges, including achieving an acceptable user experience for client-to-server connections over the WAN. Optimizing application delivery, on the other hand, can smooth the virtualization transition.

What You Need to Know About Social Media as the Ultimate Communication Channel
There's no question. Social media is a valued communication channel for business. Yet many businesses still have questions about how to implement social media initiatives and where the contact center fits in. This paper offers some proven guidelines for managing a social media strategy, and making social media the ultimate communication channel for your business.

Orchestrating your Disaster Recovery
Chances are that you are dissatisfied with your current backup solution, as half of those surveyed by NetApp have stated. You probably have a pile of tapes or disks that you faithfully copied your files onto using a traditional backup software utility. But when disaster strikes and an entire server goes south, getting a working server online quickly and without a lot of running around isn't going to happen.

Enterprise Strategy Group: The Next Wave of Data Deduplication
Leveraging deduplication in backup environments yields significant advantages.  The cost savings in reducing disk capacity requirements change the economics of disk-based backup. For some organizations, it allows disk-based backup - and recovery - to be extended to additional workloads in the environment. For others, deduplication makes it possible to introduce disk-based backup where it may not have been feasible before.

5 Ways Secure Managed File Transfer Can Improve Your Business
Companies running SAP get the importance of middleware in connecting applications - but many don't realize that the data in those applications is often insecure. Managed File Transfer provides complete management of file transfers. It ensures that data exchanges within your company and with trading partners are secure from transmission to delivery. Read the white paper to learn five key ways MFT makes a difference for your business.
