Windows Server 2012 Overview and “Bringing Your Own Devices”
December 11, 2012 - Web Seminar
Backend computing infrastructure is going through a transformational shift impacting the entire IT ecosystem and this transformation is being driven by an exponential growth of devices used for smarter, more personalized applications, which in turn create an explosion of data and the need for more computing power. It is a new world of connected devices and continuous services, and it’s all powered by servers and the cloud.
Microsoft’s Windows Server 2012 is a cornerstone of the Cloud OS, providing our customers and partners with a modern platform for their applications and is the core offering for anyone building their own cloud, pubic, private or hybrid. Microsoft has put its unparalleled cloud experience into Windows Server 2012, making it the world’s first server that is “built from the cloud up”. Windows Server 2012 expands the definition of a server operating system from the single server up to the datacenter and out to the cloud, while also incorporating breakthroughs across advanced storage, software-defined networking, virtualization and automation. Windows Server 2012 delivers hundreds of new features that will help customers achieve a transformational leap in the speed, scale and power of their datacenters and applications.
Microsoft has seen a “consumerization of IT” and with that, a great shift with people bringing their own devices into the workplace. Students are also using their own devices to access managed data and applications within today’s educational enterprise. Expectedly, organizations must be mindful of how these devices and the data which is accessed are secured and managed. Come learn about BYOD strategies, what other educational organizations are doing to manage the proliferation of devices and what Microsoft offers to help.
