Application-Defined Data Center: The Next Stop in Datacenter Evolution - ERP Spain.com - España y América Latina

Applications - the lifeblood of modern business - can be a sorry state of affairs given today's forced alignment with server, OS, and storage boundaries. This can not only cause deployment delays and complexity, but it also results in underutilized hardware and inflated operational costs. There is a drive to embrace new technologies and methodologies in the enterprise, but this presents significant challenges. Limited application-awareness at the infrastructure level makes it nearly impossible to deliver on the promised SLAs and the tight coupling of applications and underlying operating software (OS or hypervisors) compromises application portability as well as developer productivity. A growing number of enterprises are turning to application containers to support more efficient and effective development and deployment in an application-centric IT paradigm. By abstracting applications from underlying infrastructure, containers can simply application deployment, enable seamless portability across machines and clouds. Containers can also enable significant cost savings by consolidating multiple applications per machine without compromising performance or predictability. Join us on June 7th to learn more about container adoption in the enterprise and how a container-based server and storage virtualization environment can help take your software-defined data center transformation to the next level of an application-defined datacenter.
