Virtualization for Mission-Critical BI with SQL Server |
Your computer |
Aug 20, 2008 |

Companies using SQL Server have been reluctant to jump onto the virtualization bandwagon. This is due to virtual machines historically not performing as well as physical systems. As business units demand faster and richer access to data and information, IT departments have amassed large infrastructures to meet those needs. Unfortunately virtualization, which is suitable for some workloads, introduces a performance penalty noticeable on demanding workloads such as SQL Server databases. View this web seminar to learn a different approach to virtualization for BI-based application infrastructure.

Securely Extend SharePoint to the Extranet |

Jul 10, 2008 |
Web Seminar |

As SharePoint has become more popular within organizations, business users have realized an under-utilized value in extending access to SharePoint with external collaborators (partners, customers, affiliates, etc). Unfortunately IT doesn’t have a lot of good options to respond to this. Several ways in which they might address this are to treat external users as employees or use toolkits for self-registration. Both of these options are problematic for security, timing, and expense reasons. View this web seminar to learn how SharePoint administrators can improve partnering and collaboration effectiveness.
