IT Infrastructure & Operation Agenda
Symposium/ITxpo 2009 is organized according to nine IT leadership roles. Each track includes targeted sessions and networking opportunities to transform your organization’s IT strategies.
For I&O Leaders focused on Data Centers, IT Operations and Client Computing, Symposium/ITxpo 2009 will answer:
- Where and how can I wring yet more costs out of my data center and client computing environment, without sacrificing performance and reliability?
- How can I best utilize virtualization, consolidation, cloud computing, ITIL and other key I&O trends to lower costs, improve service and increase agility? I can’t afford to move forward on all fronts – so which ones do I do now and which ones to do I defer?
- How do I demonstrate and articulate the value of servers, storage, PCs – all things infrastructure– to my business leaders?
- How do I drive efficiencies and cost savings in my help desk, support and configuration management systems – all things IT operations? And how do I also create a support environment that can easily scale up and down as my business does the same?
Combine virtualization, consolidation, automation, and cloud computing – and throw in a recession – and you’ve got the makings for huge I&O cost-savings expectations. Meanwhile, don’t forget to improve service quality and increase agility. And what about upgrading those aging PCs? Such is the plight of today’s data center, IT operations, and client computing leaders. We’ll tackle it all, including ways to wring yet more costs out of the data center and client computing environment and how to utilize the best of the big trends to lower costs, improve service, and increase agility.
