Duration: One Hour
Event Summary: The datacentre is at the heart of successful IT delivery for every organisation - whether your systems occupy a purpose built facility or fit into a quiet corner of the office.

IT managers are under increasing pressure to get more from their existing resources.

Getting more intelligent business intelligence
Date: Thursday 3 July 2008, 3.00pm BST
Duration: One Hour
Event Summary: Business intelligence (BI) has been deployed at many organisations to ensure employees have access to key corporate data. However, some of the most valuable content within an organisation resides outside the BI system - in spreadsheets, emails and other unstructured data repositories, and some users might prefer to work with these familiar applications, proving a challenge for firms. Also key employees requiring access to this data might not be office-based or desk-bound. So which technology solutions are available to help firms address these issues?

Coding control: how to bring in agility and avoid fragility through software configuration management
Date: Tuesday 16 January 2007
Duration: One Hour
Event Summary: Outsourcing, remote working and the increasingly global nature of many organisations have combined to make the software development process more complex than ever. Developers working in different time zones, poor visibility of the state of the project, inability to review earlier builds, and general lack of control are common complaints.

In this IT Week web seminar, we look at why many organisations are turning to SCM to help align the software development process with the requirements of the business and the steps IT management should take to implement it effectively.

Relieving the desktop management burden
Date: Wednesday 10 January 2007
Duration: One Hour
Event Summary: Managing fleets of PCs has never been an easy task, especially for small and medium-sized businesses that have few IT staff. Helpdesk call-outs, software updates and security concerns all contribute to the administration load. Very often, companies can’t even count the number of systems on the network.

However, the good news is that taking a hands-free approach to desktop and laptop manageability is now a realistic option.

Data Security for the modern enterprise
Date: Thursday 07 June 2006
Duration: One Hour
Event Summary: In the latest of our series of web seminars, we look at data security in the enterprise, and how new approaches to IT security can help you meet new compliance and best practice requirements.

With new considerations and accountability for businesses to consider, they must remain aware that the total cost to the business, in financial, productivity and practicality terms, of securing data and systems does not overly outweigh the cost to the business of a security breach.

Increased regulation worldwide has resulted in greater emphasis on the accountability of the board and the IT department, who both must demonstrate that they are protecting corporate information effectively and insulating the company from unnecessary risk and exposure to liability.
