"To me, 'excellence' means 'better than the best.' Its achievement requires an introspective assessment of everything we do, say, or make, and an honest inquiry: 'Is it better than the best?' If it is not, we will ask ourselves, 'What will it take?,' and then rally the resources required to get there..." --Jack Welch

Are you interested in dramatically improving the availability of your applications? How do you know if the patches you've pushed are the same on 1 or 1000 servers? Can you identify the software that shouldn't be running on your servers?

In IT there is typically no independent check of applications after they are deployed into production. Checks that are common place in any other industry environment. Without out-of-band quality control, it is impossible to know if your applications are deployed as intended.

In any other industry you have a maker and a checker--each independent of the other. This basic process ensures consistent, repeatable performance and fewer errors.

SignaCert believes this proven methodology belongs in IT. In this webinar, you will learn why the principle of independent verification of software after it has been deployed into production is vital to improving application availability.

You will gain a deeper understanding of the software running in your environment, and learn to do what was never before possible: measure and monitor software with the same precision that your hardware and network is monitored today.

This session is ideal for IT Professionals in the Financial Services, Pharmaceutical or Telecommunication industry who manage IT Operations and software deployments of more than 100 servers.
