Panel webcast: How Shortcomings in Storage Impact Your Business

Learn how Intel IT upgraded its network architecture to 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections to accommodate explosive data center growth and network demand.  

The presenters will discuss the benefits realized such as: reduced DC complexity, lower TCO, increased throughput and agility.  Attendees will benefit by being able to apply Intel IT's best practices to their own data center initiatives.  In addition, the presenters will address what the key tradeoffs were.

Intel IT Best Practices: Upgrading Data Center Network to 10GbE

Each year, several questions are raised across the industry related to the demands and expectations of Information Technology (IT) Departments.  Typical questions at the center of this discussion include: 

•Is IT a cost center or a value center?
•What do business leaders expect from IT this year?
•Have these expectations for IT changed?

Chris Peters, Senior Manager with Intel IT, will discuss the external and internal pressures facing IT organizations today as well as the opportunities that need to be seized in today’s business environment.  Chris will use the Intel IT organization as a case study to explore this topic in depth, explaining the clear and ongoing mandate that has emerged – create business value.  Webinar attendees will learn about: 

•The key projects Intel IT has implemented and IT best practices that Intel IT has developed in delivering the value of IT to Intel.   
•What Intel IT is thinking about top-of-mind hot topics such as Cloud Computing, IT Consumerization and Security.  
•How Intel IT decides which investments are highest priority by developing and executing a multi-year IT Strategic Plan.

The Role of IT:   A Great Debate or Clear Mandate?

This webinar will describe how Intel IT has shifted from a traditional static enterprise computing environment to a service-oriented environment, which is at the crux of a complete cloud environment.  Virtualization is just one step to deploying cloud services and alone is insufficient.  This webinar is a unique addition to our cloud series because it shows how Intel IT dynamically provides capacity to our business users on demand when they need it thereby removing IT from the critical path for business services.  By instituting a hosting automation framework, we are establishing a true enterprise private cloud that provides a consumer focused self-service portal.  Intel IT has significantly reduced provisioning time and is on a path to provision services in just three hours.  This is the key to creating a more agile enterprise infrastructure to support a dynamic and ever-changing set of business requirements.
