Demartek Presents Storage Best Practices for Microsoft Applications at the Storage Networking World Conference on April 6, 2009

13 March 2009

Dennis Martin, President of Demartek, will present Storage Best Practices for Microsoft Applications at the Storage Networking World Conference in Orlando, Florida on April 6, 2009.

Abstract:
Storage is critical for the primary Microsoft server-based applications, including Exchange Server, SQL Server and SharePoint Server. In this session, we will explore some of the basics of storage devices and interfaces, and the reasons for selecting each one. We will discuss a few of the best storage practices for each of the Microsoft applications, then we will show some performance data comparing the same application with Solid State Drives (SSD), Fibre-Channel and SAS disk drives and SATA disk drives.


Demartek plans to continue to test solid state disk and storage technology with Microsoft applications during calendar year 2009. View all the Demartek SSD resources at the Demartek SSD Zone.
