The traditional application server has been deconstructed and redefined. Components of today’s applications run on distributed systems which have been virtualized across clusters of physical hosts that sharing network bandwidth to storage and other resources. Additionally, today’s hyper-dense computing environments, made possible by innovations by companies such as Cisco, EMC, and VMware, have placed more servers per square foot in our data centers than ever before.
These changes cause us to revisit IT management philosophies and in many cases to re-tool ourselves for this generation of data center. Join SolarWinds Head Geek Josh Stephens as we discuss the changes that these trends have caused and how they affect management best practices. Some of what he’ll cover will include:
• Understanding today’s application server technologies
• Best practices for managing next-gen application servers
• Key elements of successful monitoring in hyper-dense computing environments
• Management system recommendations and what to watch out for
Also during this webcast we’ll demonstrate key technologies from SolarWinds that help conquer these challenges and ensure success in these environments.

31. Best Practices for System and App Mgmt Choose something you can see an ROI from today… Leverage all of the methods we discussed for a more complete picture Don’t boil the ocean, but get what you need Baseline everything now and compare monthly, quarterly, annually User experience monitoring is key Don’t just monitor the app and server – monitor the network, SANs, and virtual infrastructure for a complete picture
32. Watch out when picking tools… Scalability is more important than ever Distributed applications mean more monitoring VM sprawl leads to more app servers Next generation technologies allow for hyper dense computing environments Virtualization monitoring is a “must have” IPv6 on the map…
