New Webcast Series on Intel IT Data Center Solutions
Discover Intel IT’s latest data center innovations and technologies that are increasing energy efficiency, reducing their carbon footprint and driving IT business value. Through a new data center webcast series, Intel shares its IT best practices that are driving results – from cloud computing and virtualization, to the newest facilities innovations and the value of proactive server refresh. Two webcasts are available now for viewing, with new webcasts coming soon.

Now Available: Innovative IT: Architecting for the Cloud — Discover how Intel IT is approaching its cloud computing strategy and insights into an approach that would work best for your organization.

Now Available: Implementing and Expanding a Virtualized Environment — Intel IT’s experiences and best practices with virtualization from 2005â€”when we began planning, engineering, and implementing a virtualized environmentâ€”to present day as we accelerate our virtualization efforts toward the continued development of our enterprise private cloud.

Coming in July: Server Refresh 10-11 a.m. PT, July 21, and Intel IT’s Data Center Strategy 10-11 a.m. PT, July 28. Sign up

As a background to this webcast series, be sure to download and read the IT@Intel whitepaper, “An Enterprise Private Cloud Architecture and Implementation Roadmap” which shares how Intel IT has defined an architecture and implementation roadmap for a private enterprise cloud designed to increase agility and IT efficiency. This shared multi-tenant environment is built on a highly efficient, automated, and virtualized infrastructure. We have started implementing today and are rapidly investing and overhauling business processes to support an on-demand, self-service private cloud. As we add certain capabilities over time, we expect that the cloud will become capable of hosting highly demanding, mission-critical business applications.
