Axispoint announces strategic briefing

BANGALORE, INDIA: Axispoint, a provider in IT service, announced on Thursday about its Strategic Briefing to be held on November 19 at IBM Southbank.

At the briefing Brian Shafer, virtualization expert, Axispoint and former project manager for Microsoft Windows XP SP2 and XP x64 Edition would explore the strategic benefits of Virtualizations technologies and comparing and contrasting Virtualizations solutions, said a press release.

The event would target IT directors, IT managers, and technicians who are responsible for application management, business continuity, desktops and data centers, it added. Brian said, “I've sat down with numerous CIOs in the last 18 months and reviewed their cost benefit model justifying Virtualization.

The reality is that too often the anticipated benefits stream isn't realized because many of the current problems simply don't go away.”

He said people underestimate the impact on their Exchange environment, their ability to reduce platform costs and ongoing support overhead.

 “'We have noticed an increasing interest in Virtualization but a lot of people are confused by the choice of options available -- Citrix, Microsoft Hyper-V, VMWare, ESX or others,” said Peter Borner, managing director of Axispoint Solutions, UK.

He added that the IT heads wanting to realize the benefits of Virtualization need to plan carefully to choose and implement the right technology for their organization and set the right expectation of benefits realization.
