                              It is no longer cheaper to “add storage rather than manage it." Today, enterprises need to develop a process for evaluating storage costs and usage, accurately predicting their storage needs and to be capable of determining which storage technologies are the best fit for their enterprises.

                                    New business requirements demand a level of interoperability that cannot be supported by our current systems and architectures.

It will also address the new models available to achieve dynamic business linkage and existing tools and techniques to implement this new style of architecture.

                                        Murphy, Tony   

                                        Is ROI enough to justify your IT investment? This presentation challenges a number of "sacred cows,” most notably the fixation on ROI.
