Attend the Virtualization Conference & Expo for an interactive discussion presented by Scalent Systems, as Brian Korn addresses the three big challenges facing server failover – software configuration, network connectivity, and storage access – and contrast several different approaches, from traditional backup to the use of virtual machines, to the next generation of adaptive infrastructure.

Speaker Bio: Brian Korn is the Director of Marketing for Scalent Systems, a leader in real-time data center management, virtualization, and automation software. Brian has more than 17 years experience in delivering datacenter automation software and server platforms for companies including Sun Microsystems, Silicon Graphics, and a number of startups including Terraspring. Brian has a BS from Lehigh University and a MBA from the Kellogg Graduate School of Management at Northwestern University.

Service-oriented architectures (SOAs) have evolved over the past few years out of the original vision of loosely coupled web services replacing constrained, stovepiped applications throughout enterprise IT. Every major enterprise technology vendor today has developed its own SOA strategy, supported by innumerable mid-size companies and start-ups offering specific SOA aspects or entire solutions. This explosive growth in SOA technology is in response to a global demand--IDC estimates that spending on SOA services alone will grow from $8.6 billion to more than $33 billion by 2010.
