Virtualization technologies have changed the ground rules on monitoring and managing your IT services. Most of us in the IT operations world tend to focus on the nuts and bolts of the infrastructure - our key concerns are: How hot are my Linux servers? How many IOPS are happening to the disks? Is Active Directory working? Is DNS working, etc.? On the other hand, end users are focused on the business services that they are accessing. After all, that's what they see and care about to get their job

It wasn’t all that long ago that virtualization was viewed as cutting edge technology that was useful for development and testing but not for real production implementations. But the advent of hypervisor based virtualization technologies like VMware’s ESX Server and Microsoft’s Hyper-V Server radically changed that perception.

Ever since human beings landed on the moon, the state of technology in government appeared to be on a downward slope. Never mind that it was really the U.S. Government that facilitated the original Internet; in public sector offices, the state of computing started lagging behind the private sector ever since IBM mass-produced the microcomputer.

En route to the federal government’s ambitious data center consolidation plans, the move toward virtualizing servers is expected to double by 2015. And while government IT professionals are also eyeing desktop virtualization, servers are the top priority. Agencies anticipate ratcheting up from 37 percent of workloads being virtualized to 63 percent, which, if it happens as planned, holds potential to grow government savings as much as $23.6 billion, according to a report published Monday by Meri

By now, everyone even vaguely familiar with information security knows the military maxim of blitzkrieg – burst through the hardened defense at a single point and then rush pell-mell to the rear where the soft underbelly of any static army lies. It is a good military strategy, provided you have the resources to break through the defenses and follow up with a rapid advance into the rear areas. While there are variants of this plan, and a lot of discussion about how/when it is strategically worth the risk, historically speaking it has been a smashing success. Germany did it to ...
