Gary Thome guided the group through a roundtable on Converged Infrastructure. This bull session was to try and get more information from the Bloggers into what they see or not. During the whole day, HP had a professional camera crew recording the event.
We all hate the word. It means extra hours and that one thing that hangs up the project until someone goes “Wait, this is how it works” and everything just makes sense. Migration We are coming up to a point where even old software needs to move forward. Legacy is not the way to go […]

Add to it a host of systems you inherit from mergers and buyouts. Legacy systems without agility and how we are caught in “Silos” are the big concerns. Customers want to […]
Earlier today we showed the presentation of Dave Peterson talking about how much money you would save by upgrading your machines, even if they are still under warranty. We go more into detail about the 11:1 computer ratio, the “Sea of Sensors” to properly cool the machine and the Virtual Connect technology.
Rethinking your server. Last year we saw how HP was working on redesigning servers to be more Energy-efficient with enough power to grow a Datacenter, but not need any more room than what you currently have. Now it’s time to talk numbers: How upgrading your Servers can reduce cost in power, heat and even software […]
