BladeLogic, provider of next-gen data center automation software, will host a Webinar at 11:30 a.m., (ET) entitled, "Turning Your Data Center into a Profit Center." The format for the Webinar will be an executive roundtable and will feature Curt Smith, senior vice president, infrastructure technology at E*Trade; and Mark Gathje, vice president of architecture and technology services of VeriSign.

Smith, Gathje as well as a senior-level executive from a leading supplier of defense systems will discuss what they have done to automate their data center environments and the business benefits they have experienced by doing so. These leading IT executives will share their data center automation insights and best practices that have led to key cost savings.

Automating data center management can produce cost savings. This Webinar hopes to educate participants on:

  • Lowering overall data center operations costs by improving server to administrator ratios;

  • Lowering administration costs by consolidating tools and centralizing management of multi-vendor, multi-platform environments;

  • Lowering costs associated with identifying, capturing and maintaining data center asset information;

  • Reducing maintenance costs through task automation and automated remediation.

  • Reducing provisioning costs by consolidating and centralizing all activities independent of platform.

  • Lowering costs associated with compliance audits by enforcing compliance policies across regulatory, operations, standards, best practices and security perspectives.
