A related recent development in the data center is converged infrastructure (CI). Instead of the traditional silo deployment approach to storage, compute, and network resources, all infrastructure elements are delivered and managed in a single environment, providing virtualized access to business services in an efficient manner. This is particularly suitable for cloud-based delivery models. However, since CI achieves lower costs through optimization of data center resources, it can be effective for all IT organizations, regardless of the way in which the services are managed or presented.
This paper highlights the advances in closed-loop marketing that enable measurement and optimization of digital marketing efforts. It also describes the challenges that CMOs face when pursuing digital marketing strategies and how next-generation WCM solutions help CMOs overcome those challenges.

MANUFACTURING: AN INDUSTRY DRIVEN BY DISRUPTION
A leading manufacturer today can be an also-ran next year. Disruption is the new
normal. Maintain the status quo at your peril because no manufacturer is safe from:
•? Innovative new products that can radically shift demand
•? Falling prices that relentlessly pressure costs
•? Dynamic business models where yesterday’s partner can become
tomorrow’s competitor
Turning disruption into your advantage requires continuous innovation and
optimization, driven by data.

A Technology Adoption Profile based on a custom survey of 102 North American and European enterprise IT decision-makers with knowledge of their company’s performance and capacity management capabilities.
Your migration is also an opportunity for a “data center do-over” that could include virtualization optimization, cloud adoption, Active Directory cleanup, and server and storage updates. After all, the preparation and process for implementing these advances in IT capability are exactly the same as for an OS migration.

When buying a workstation, price-performance matters. But it’s not the only
consideration. Also important is aligning features and capabilities with user
applications and workloads. So are system optimization, expandability and
support. While many buyers — especially in graphics, video and multimedia
fields — might consider Apple’s iMac, iMac Pro and MacBook Pro models
best suited to their needs, they may be selling themselves short in many
ways. This paper provides a checklist for buyers to compare Apple’s newest
high-end offerings with the latest Dell Precision workstations.

Cart abandonment, digital advertising (especially when faced with ad-blocking software), and discrete digital stores are relics of the past when it comes to e-commerce. Consider this: How much revenue do you think $1 spent on digital advertising will generate in commerce sales? The answer: A bit more than twice the investment—an abysmally unprofitable equation for any company carrying physical inventory.
It is possible that a significant number of people reading this piece may find themselves confused, or at least intrigued, by its title: “The Importance of Flash Storage in a Hybrid IT World.” Might it be that two separate white papers have been inadvertently muddled and integrated? After all, "hybrid IT" is about a sweeping strategic trend for the industry, whereas "flash storage" seems prosaically tactical. Download to read more!

This white paper will show how factors other than initial
purchase price work together to generate a TCO for medium
voltage VFDs. Although this paper is specific to medium
voltage VFDs, many of the concepts covered are applicable
to other long-lived assets that fulfill critical roles in industrial
manufacturing facilities.

Databases are often the driving force behind a company’s
mission-critical work. They power online stores, confidential
records, and customer management systems, so a solution that
sustains high levels of database work can be a big advantage as
your company grows.
We found that the Dell EMC™ VxRail™ P470F hyperconverged
system with VMware® vSAN™ could allow you to do more
database work than the HPE Hyper Converged 380 (HC 380) with
StoreVirtual VSA. The four-node Dell EMC solution processed
more orders with faster response times, so more users can fulfill
requests quicker—whether they’re placing orders in a store,
accessing databases of client info, or adding to company records.
