The Pursuit of a Standardized Solution for Secure Enterprise RBAC
[ Source: BeyondTrust ]
November 2009-
Each RBAC implementation varies in its capabilities and method of management. In a multi-platform environment, these differences introduce higher administration hours and costs because the various RBAC models are not consistent in administration and operation methodology. The differences among these implementations also increase the potential for misconfiguration and related security issues.
This paper will discuss how integrating BeyondTrust's PowerBroker with the basic RBAC implementations of Sun, HP and the Linux community, provides an all-encompassing solution ....

September 2009-
Data centers rely on a continuous supply of clean electricity. However, anything from a subtle power system design flaw to a failure in the electrical grid can easily bring down even the most modern and sophisticated data center.
Fortunately, organizations can significantly mitigate their exposure to power-related downtime by adopting proven changes to their business processes and electrical power system management practices.
This white paper discusses 10 such underutilized best practices for building ....
Power Monitoring 101: Supervisory, Connectivity and Protection Options That Add An Umbrella of Protection Over Your Entire IT Infrastructure
[ Source: Eaton ]
August 2009-
Monitoring options are now available for organizations of any size. You can remotely monitor and manage a single uninterruptible power system (UPS), an enterprise-wide network of many UPSs and power distribution devices, or a complete IT support infrastructure, including generators, environmental systems and detection devices, and other components from multiple vendors.
This white paper discusses the imperatives of intelligent power monitoring.
Data Center Transitions: Unix to Linux

August 2009-
Increasing needs and declining budgets demand rapid innovation. The forced upgrades, arcane licensing, routine price hikes, and reduced choice associated with proprietary software might be more than your agency can afford right now. Rapid innovation lets you do more with less-and it requires an open source strategy.
And every good open source strategy begins with Red Hat. Read about Unix to Linux datacenter transitions and how migrating to Red Hat Enterprise Linux on ....

June 2009-
Cloud computing is a compelling way to deliver web-based and non-web-based applications that better utilize the physical infrastructure, while lowering costs by moving from silos of expensive customized servers to racks of cost-effective ones. Due to the elastic nature of clouds, a particular application may be delivered from one physical location at a given moment but from a different, potentially far-away location in the same cloud at a later moment. Performance and scaling of cloud ....
Architecting Low Latency Cloud Networks

June 2009-
As data centers transition to next generation virtualized & elastic cloud architectures, high performance and resilient cloud networking has become a requirement for delivering always-on, always-available applications.
Over the last decade response time requirements have been rigorously tightened, toward fractions of a second, and both network and compute latencies need to be reduced in parallel. An architectural approach is needed so that response times are consistently and measurably enhanced across a wide set of ....
