You have a virtualized environment, now what do you do?

Well, hey, that's a good question! It's probably a question that's being asked of IT managers and CIOs from uncomprehending top execs all over this world.

It's also the title of a session at Cloud Expo, to be presented by Daniel Weis, Director of IT Management Advisory Support.

I liked the title, so I read what Daniel has to say on the topic so far:

"Do you want a top down, business-driven, automated data center where efficiencies deliver agility and the ability to innovate? If yes, come to this session to listen to Dan Weiss - Director of IT Management Advisory Services for Unisys Corporation discuss how to mindfully move from virtualization into this agile environment."

"Learn how to deal with challenges such as virtual machine sprawl, additional storage requirements, increased systems management requirements, new IT management processes, and specialized technical skills. Learn how to collect empirical data and apply that to making sound business decisions which will aid in guiding the future direction of your infrastructure and IT Services delivery model. And, learn how to analyze both your infrastructure and applications to determine the appropriate steps to take advantage of the new IT Services delivery model – Cloud Computing."

I'm so there. I'm markedly enamored of of moving mindfully, mostly.
