WikitipBuild expertise in New Handheld PlatformsIT organizations and consultants who get ahead of the game and build development expertise on the iPhone/iPod Touch and Android now will have a leg up as this market grows. If you have not already, you should invest in at least one or two iPhones and two Android phones just to become familiar with these next generation platforms, and you should either build development capabilities on this platform internally or identify a good consulting firm that can provide that capability when you need it. |
Featured Case Study
Virtualization Energizes Cal State UniversityJohn Charles is the CIO of California State University, East Bay (CSUEB) and Rich Avila is Director, Server & Network Operations. In late 2007 they were both looking down the barrel of a gun. The total amount of power being used in the data center was 67KVA. The maximum power from the current plant was 75kVA. PG&E had informed them that no more power could be delivered. They would be out of power in less than six months. A new data center was planned, but would not be available for two years. |

Featured How-To Note |
Storage Virtualization Design and DeploymentA main impediment to storage virtualization is the lack of multiple storage vendor (heterogeneous) support within available virtualization technologies. This inhibits deployment across a data center. The only practical approach is either to implement a single vendor solution across the whole of the data center (practical only for small and some medium size data centers) or to implement virtualization in one or more of the largest storage pools within a data center. | |||
