Optimizing Infrastructure, Improving Resilience
One of the key challenges facing IT is business alignment, especially in enabling business making informed decisions regarding infrastructure investment. While the concept of IT and business alignment is widely accepted and understood, the practical ways of alignment like linking business decisions to concrete measurable IT metrics are few and far between. This presentation introduces a practical framework to optimize IT infrastructure and improve resilience including practical aspects of infrastructure transformation.

Modelling your Data Centre for greater Operational Efficiency & Availability From Basic Monitoring to Predictive Simulation
Traditional device-level monitoring systems will only get you so far. When the overall health of your data centre depends on your ability to accurately plan and manage change, you need more than educated guesses.
· Discover how you can plan proactively for required data centre capacity
· Have a blueprint for data centre expansions and consolidations
· Streamline workflow management of your IT physical infrastructure to improve your business agility and availability
· Make changes knowing how they will affect your business
· View your current and historic PUE/DCiE and energy costs of subsystems to make intelligent energy management decisions
