    As business units demand faster and richer access to data and information, IT departments have amassed large infrastructures to meet those needs. Facing strong pressure to cut costs, IT has turned to virtualization software to decrease their server count. Unfortunately virtualization, which is suitable for some workloads, introduces a performance penalty noticeable on demanding workloads such as SQL Server databases.

    HP takes a different approach to virtualization. HP software virtualizes the connections between servers and storage creating a shared pool of resources, and it is an ideal platform for consolidating Windows-based applications and SQL Server infrastructure.

    Attend this HP-sponsored webcast to learn how customer Harry Vijayakumar at Henry Ford Health System deploys HP's technology as part of the company's "virtualization framework" environment. Victor Wigelius from partner integrator Avanade will also provide insight on why they recommend using HP PolyServe Software for Microsoft SQL Server for data centers that rely on high-demand applications and business critical databases.
