Affordable Virtualisation Solutions for Business Continuity, Data Protection & Disaster Recovery

Lunch & Learn Complimentary Session:

AGENDA

09.00 - Registration

09.30 - VMware Overview & Demonstration
While most organisations recognize the importance of business continuity, their ability to provide high availability and DR for key applications in a non-virtualised environment is constrained by high costs, high complexity, unreliability, and failure to meet goals. Customers who use VMware to improve their business continuity plans benefit from:

• Downtime reduction - due to its automated rapid restart of virtual machines
• Lower costs - the need for additional hardware and software is eliminated
• Simplified processes - it removes the complexity of maintaining duplicate physical systems for DR

Date: Tuesday 22nd July 2008
Time: 9.00 to 12.30
