Network Management 2012: Megatrends in Technology, Process, and Organization

As the world of IT becomes increasingly virtualized and “cloudy,” one constant is clear – the network is more important than ever.  Application workloads are moving from place to place and rapid development means more and faster changes.  Without a reliable, high-performing, optimized network, though, none of these advances can deliver their value to the served organization. 

If this wasn’t enough to contend with, there is a wide range of other issues and initiatives spanning business, technology, and process - such as unified communications, security, and application performance - that are constantly competing for attention.  Which initiatives and technologies are causing the most disruption?  How are network managers and operators accommodating the demands?  Which network management strategies are making the grade?

Enterprise Management Associates™ (EMA) has conducted a major research study to investigate and better understand the current and emerging influences affecting the daily priorities of network managers and operators and the management tools, technologies, and practices they employ.  Join EMA Managing Research Director Jim Frey for this complimentary Webinar where he will share the results of this research and:

• Detail current demands placed on network planners and operators
• Identify the adoption and impact of cross-domain collaborative management practices
• Examine the influence of Application Performance and Quality of Experience objectives
• Update the state of practices for managing networks in virtualized environments
• Reveal current network management tooling approaches and strategies

Please note that this is a sponsored event and EMA shares registrant information with the sponsor.
