IDC: The Cost of Retaining Aging IT Infrastructure
Is your company facing budget challenges that continue to delay the purchase of new platforms and technologies? A pattern of extending the useful lifecycle of servers may appear to have short-term financial benefits, but create long-term business impact. If the transition to new technologies has been deferred too long, your company may start experiencing hidden costs. Understand the true cost of keeping your aging IT infrastructure to make more informed decisions and meet your business needs.

2012 Endpoint Security Best Practices Survey: Key Findings
The threat landscape is evolving as cybercriminals become more sophisticated, stealthy and insidious with their attacks. The traditional endpoint security tool - antivirus software - is no longer effective on a stand-alone basis. The 2012 Endpoint Security Best Practices Survey assessed how IT is coping with endpoint security. Download this white paper to review the findings.

15 Top Paying IT Certifications for 2012
When the conversation amongst IT professionals turns to IT Certifications, one of their first thoughts is of high salaries - dollar signs dancing in their heads. While some certifications do command a six-figure salary, this is not true for all. With the recent completion of the annual IT Skills and Salary report, it is a great time to look at some of the more popular certifications - and their associated pay.

What Do Redeploys and Application Restarts Mean for Developers?
Could you imagine having to completely restart your computer every time you wanted to write, receive or send an email? When Java developers want to see the results of their code changes (e.g. adding a new feature, or fixing a bug), they have to redeploy their application, or restart their application server - a process that takes an average of 10.5 minutes away from each coding hour, according to a recent survey. This white paper reviews the costs of turnaround time in development teams and suggests a solution for eliminating this unnecessary process.

Backup and Recovery Performance and Best Practices for Oracle Exadata Database Machine
One of the key operational aspects of deploying a Sun Oracle Database Machine is to ensure that database backups are performed and restoration of the Oracle Database is possible if disaster strikes. This paper describes the best practices for setting up the optimal backup and recovery strategy to protect your mission-critical data.
