Converged infrastructure Suggerimenti per la formazione: utilizzare questa diapositiva per iniziare il programma e per elaborare su scala più ampia i trend del settore IT e dell'economia che rappresentano il contesto di questa discussione. Perché HP è il fornitore strategico di infrastrutture ideate per aiutare i clienti a massimizzare il loro potenziale, indirizzare le loro principali iniziative e preparare le strutture informatiche per le sfide future. Converged infrastructure Ottimizzare l’infrastruttura IT con le soluzioni HP BladeSystem In questo periodo per la vostra azienda si apre un'opportunità che capita una sola volta in un ciclo economico, una breve pausa prima del ritorno alla stabilità e alla crescita. In questa situazione i nuovi leader emergeranno e i precedenti leader dovranno diventare più forti o scompariranno. Adesso è il momento per i CIO di presentare le loro idee migliori alle riunioni strategiche aziendali per sfruttare al massimo l'imminente crescita economica. HP è consapevole che questo ciclo economico è unico perché corrisponde ad un punto di flesso nel settore informatico, laddove la convergenza fra tecnologie nuove ed esistenti crea nuove opportunità. Noi di HP siamo presenti nei data center ogni giorno e in ogni parte del mondo. Costantemente vediamo molta tecnologia valida sottoutilizzata e notiamo molti professionisti sprecare le proprie capacità. Il settore informatico si trova di fronte alla grande opportunità di offrire maggior valore alle aziende grazie alla Converged Infrastructure. Prima di tutto dovete sfruttare le potenzialità già disponibili. Che si tratti di virtualizzazione, servizi IT cloud o condivisi o Green computing, un trend eccezionale dominerà il futuro. Le aziende di domani si baseranno su Converged Infrastructure. Solo HP è in grado di offrire le competenze, la leadership tecnologica e le strategie che vi consentono di trasformare la vostra infrastruttura, organizzando le risorse informatiche, in modo da farle operare congiuntamente in modo ottimale. La creazione di una Converged Infrastructure fa corrispondere la fornitura di risorse informatiche alla richiesta di applicazioni aziendali e aiuta la vostra azienda a passare da un approccio incentrato sul prodotto ad un approccio di gestione incentrato sui servizi per semplificare la struttura informatica e accelerare i risultati aziendali. TRANSIZIONE: oggi parleremo di alcuni metodi diretti, in grado di offrire risultati informatici tangibili oggi e garantire che la vostra azienda sia sempre pronta per le sfide future.
