Microsoft Malta will be a prominent participant during a seminar on Server and Storage Virtualisation due to be held at Intercontinental Hotel, St. Julian’s on September 27. This seminar will feature a number of presentations and live demonstrations about important virtualisation products such as the Microsoft’s System Centre Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM) 2012.

The seminar, which has also lined up reviews about Datacore’s SANsymphony V 8.1 and Qnap’s product line-up, is being organised by Micro Technology Consultancy Ltd, Datacore’s exclusive distributor for Malta. Microsoft, Datacore and Qnap are acting as sponsors of this event and participants will have the chance to win a Windows Phone 7 mobile phone kindly supplied by Microsoft Malta.

As part of Microsoft Malta’s sponsoring of this event, Theo Theodosiou, account technology strategist from Microsoft Cyprus and Malta will be giving a presentation on managing a virtual and dynamic infrastructure with SCVMM 2012. This Microsoft product, set to be released soon, has just entered RC (release candidate), i.e. the last step before the product is finalised.

Commenting about the event and Microsoft’s new System Centre Virtual Machine Manager 2012, Mr Theodosiou said: “This year, Microsoft Malta has supported and assisted a number of major companies in their virtualisation projects such as Lufthansa Technik and Maltapost among others.

“Therefore, participating in this seminar to promote the benefits and the flexibility that our virtualisation products can offer to business organization was a natural step for us.”

Philip Cortis, managing director of Micro Technology Consultancy Ltd, the organisers of this seminar, explained how this event will empower participants with more knowledge about the latest technologies and how to solve storage and failover issues.

“We will give a live demonstration with a setup that will not lead to any downtime to the users if some storage fails.

“We will also discuss disaster recovery solutions, the idea of managing your VMware / Citrix and Hyper-V infrastructure from one management console and much more.”

Prospective participants to the even should send an e-mail to events@mtmalta.com with the name, surname, company name, website, e-mail address and your position within the company for the participating employees.
