This white paper provides the insights of authors who are infrastructure specialists and thought leaders. They are using virtualization to centralize desktop management and serve as a platform for disaster recovery plans. Yes, virtualization can make a firm secure, efficient and can save money for their firms, too.

A recent technological development, ATA over Ethernet, is a network protocol that is fairly easy  to implement, provides an extra layer of security and promises high performance. It, too, adds value to infrastructure by increasing storage capacity at a low cost.

There are other areas to investigate within this white paper, of course. Cloud computing is a growing area that many are using. Unified threat management tools simplify security for IT departments. Shore up these areas of your firm’s infrastructure framework, and it’s going to be stronger and safer.

Many thanks go to Robert DuBois, Vice President of ILTA’s Infrastructure Technologies Peer Group and his steering committee for their expertise and guidance.
