Virtualization, Automation and Databases |
Your computer |
Dec 10, 2008 |
Web Seminar |
SQL Server Magazine |
 |
 |
Virtualization is rapidly becoming the norm, not the exception. Organizations are moving to virtualize their entire datacenters, including high performance applications unable to tolerate the overhead of a hypervisor virtualization approach.
This one-hour Web Seminar explores virtualizing databases with Parallels Virtuozzo Containers. To ease the daunting challenge of managing databases, Parallels offers two provisioning and management approaches: from the database instance level, which allows the database admin to control databases; or from the actual database level, which eliminates tasks such as provisioning, allowing administrators to focus on more critical issues.

As the Internet becomes more central to consumers' lives, online fraud continues to evolve -- and consumer concerns about identity theft are pervasive and powerful. Recent developments in authentication technology have lead to a new kind of SSL Certificate that can increase visitor confidence in legitimate sites and greatly reducing the effectiveness of phishing attacks.
Websites with the Extended Validation SSL, such as PayPal, have seen how this new technology enables the address bar in high security browsers to turn green, thus allowing consumers to feel secure that they are on a legitimate Website. ( Topic: Management | Security | Windows OSs ) |
