Topic: The New Network: Virtualizing the Core, Collapsing the Edge
Date: Wednesday, October 6, 2010
Time: 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM.
Presenter:
Dwayne MacKenzie, Data Networks
Practice Manager for Infrastructure and Security
RSVP to meec-office@usmd.edu with your name, e mail address and institution by noon, Tuesday, October 5th, 2010.
Description:
The need to wring maximum efficiency out of scarce network resources has made server virtualization the hottest technology in recent memory. New networks are taking this concept to the next level.
In the data center, stackable switches with “virtual chassis” technology are replacing cumbersome chassis-based approaches. At the edge, secure routers combine the security, routing and switching capabilities of stand-alone products into a single, easy-to-manage device. And that’s just the beginning.
Join us for an in-depth look at the new network where we’ll explore how these cost-effective approaches can help you:
• Simplify network architecture
• Deliver blazing performance and high-availability for less
• Reduce your hardware, management, power, and cooling costs
• Increase the flexibility and scalability of your network
• Secure critical network resources
This informative session will offer the latest solutions from Juniper Networks for discussion, and leave plenty of time for your questions.
Target audience
All levels of an organization’s IT Server and Infrastructure staff
