Thursday, Dec. 16, 2010 at 11:00 a.m. EST Why Monitor Your Private Cloud Infrastructure? http://www.enterprisemanagement.com/nimsoftnl121610

A private cloud infrastructure, such as Vblock, arrives with all of the complexity of a data center concentrated into a single physical and virtual environment. The highly concentrated nature of the computer power in a private cloud - with thousands of virtual machines running simultaneously - results in more dependencies between physical and virtual environments. All components must operate in harmony for the solution to be effective.

EMA Research Director Jim Frey, Nimsoft Sr. Product Marketing Manager Andy Kicklighter, and Nimsoft customer Aad Dekkers, CMO and Head of Business Development at MTI, will present during a one hour Webinar where they will:

*Explore the complexities and essentiality of a unified monitoring approach to proactively address problems before they impact the business *Teach you how unified monitoring of your private infrastructure package will minimize risk of failure and ensure that you meet service level agreements and exceed user expectations
