CxO Seminar: Today’s Virtual Reality – Effective Strategies for Virtualizing and Managing the 21st Century Network™
Presented by QTS, Microsoft and NetApp
As computer networks get larger and more complex, server virtualization has changed the game – making it more cost effective and faster to deploy servers, upgrade applications and deliver failover and disaster recovery to support businesses that increasingly rely on technology to survive and compete in the new economy.  Microsoft Hyper-V has driven costs of server virtualization down sharply, while Microsoft System Center has made it easier to manage today’s increasingly complex networks and keep them up and running.  Join QTS, Microsoft and NetApp for this informative event to learn:

• How Server Virtualization can drive down costs, increase network uptime and prepare your business to be more agile and disaster-tolerant;
• What is a Private Cloud, and how can your business take advantage of one;
• How Microsoft is creating new, cost-effective options for businesses of all sizes to leverage virtualization and scale with Microsoft Hyper-V and Windows Server;
• How Microsoft System Center 2012 can help you keep your network running and reduce system management costs and effort, while maximizing reliability and system uptime;
• How NetApp SANs, combined with Hyper-V virtualization, create new scenarios for highly available, disaster-tolerant networks through centralized storage;
• How QTS can help you leverage these technologies to build a 21st Century Network™.

Join us for this educational seminar, and learn how Microsoft and NetApp, with help from QTS, can deliver a flexible, scalable and disaster-tolerant platform for your business-critical systems and servers.
