Sanbolic to Showcase Award Winning Melio, Distributed Data Management Solution, at Microsoft TechEd North America 2012

Additional June Webinars to Detail How to Achieve SQL Server Consolidation and High Availability in the Private Cloud, How to Solve the VDI Storage Dilemma, and How to Reap the Full Benefit of SQL Server Virtualization

Wednesday, June 6, 11:00 a.m. – 11:45 a.m. Eastern Time
Sanbolic Webinar: Solving the Storage Dilemma of VDI
This webinar is perfect for those planning a VDI initiative using Citrix XenDesktop, have already begun a XenDesktop VDI Pilot or those that are currently spinning their wheels trying to figure out how to move from VDI pilot to production. During this webinar, attendees will learn how to leverage Sanbolic’s Melio distributed data management software in conjunction with Provisioning Services (PVS), a core component of XenDesktop, in order to avoid the usual high costs and storage complexity associated with VDI deployments. The presentation will explain how to create flexible, highly available shared storage using the storage “inside” the PVS servers, to simplify data and storage management, provide reliable data protection and enable seamless infrastructure expansion – while reducing the initial and ongoing cost of storage for any VDI project.

Monday, June 11 – Thursday, June 14, 2012
Tradeshow Appearance: Microsoft TechEd North America 2012 (Orlando, FL)
Booth #: 2145
During Microsoft TechEd North America 2012, Sanbolic will showcase its award winning Meliosoftware suite. Attendees will have the opportunity to see firsthand how it delivers dramatically increased levels of application availability, scalability, protection and performance while decreasing cost and management complexity across enterprise data center applications such as MicrosoftSQL Server, Microsoft SharePoint and Windows file-/web-serving, Citrix XenDesktop virtual desktop (VDI), and Microsoft Hyper-V private cloud environments.

Sanbolic Webinar: SQL Server Virtualization with Sanbolic Melio
Virtualization provides a tool for consolidating and simplifying SQL Server environments by running multiple SQL Servers on a physical machine. Unfortunately, virtualizing the SQL instances does not address the complexity in provisioning, protecting, and managing performance and utilization of the storage resources where the databases reside. Physical deployments need to be managed separately from the virtualized SQL instances, and limit the ability to realize the full benefit of virtualization, consolidation and improved utilization, especially in environments where the workloads may be variable and unpredictable. In this webinar, learn how Sanbolic Melio Enterprise consolidates, protects and manages physical and virtual SQL workloads, enabling a more agile, efficient, highly available and scalable shared cluster of critical SQL database instances.

Wednesday, June 20, 11:00 a.m. – 11:45 a.m. Eastern Time
Sanbolic Webinar: Debunking the “VDI Means High Cost and Complexity” Myth
Join Sanbolic for another intriguing webinar that highlights how its Melio data management platform enables efficient data consolidation, application availability and scalability, as well as enhances storage utilization to reduce storage-related cost for desktop and application virtualization deployments. Attendees will learn how to leverage Sanbolic’s unique “Start, Go and Grow” approach to deploying desktop and application virtualization using Citrix’s industry-leading solutions XenDesktop and XenApp quickly, easily and with lower cost to help organizations realize the greatest ROI on these innovative technologies.

Wednesday, June 27, 11:00 a.m. – 11:45 a.m. Eastern Time
Sanbolic Webinar: SQL Server Consolidation and High Availability (HA) in the Private Cloud
This webinar is for Database Administrators (DBAs), IT Managers, Directors, VPs and others that are facing challenges around managing the individual server/storage silos across their SQL Server environment and are looking for a cost-effective approach to simplify database management and enable high availability (HA). Attendees will learn how to utilize the unique capabilities of Sanbolic’s Melio distributed data management software to deploy large, flexible, cost-effective SQL Server environments that provide the following benefits:
– Consolidation – to remove database sprawl and simplify database management
– High availability (HA) – to minimize disruptions to database accessibility during SQL Server failures
– Intelligent distribution of databases – to maintain performance levels during SQL Server failures
– Seamless expansion – that allows servers and storage to be added dynamically without requiring system downtime
