As you expand the virtualization footprint and create a cloud infrastructure, IT management must change. For a more flexible and dynamic infrastructure the traditional approach to silo’d, static, physical infrastructure management does not provide adequate automation and control. This session provides guidance on the different approaches for managing virtual and cloud infrastructures and how management solutions purpose-built for virtual and cloud environments reduce cost, management overhead and increase IT agility. If you have, or plan to have a VMware-based infrastructure this session is a ‘must attend.’
