Protecting XenApp with everRun – Citrix Summit Demo

Posted by: Brian Mullins

Citrix Summit is a major event for Citrix partners to learn the best new technology products for application delivery infrastructure solutions. The event was a few weeks ago, and it is worth noting that in the keynote presentation, delivered by Mark Templeton, President and CEO, and Peter Blum, Senior Systems Engineering Manager, they demonstrated Marathon’s everRun VM Level 3 protecting XenApp. What the audience saw was how everRun provided continuous availability for XenApp – even when they unplugged one of the servers.

Did anyone have a chance to see this demo live? What did you think?

Posted by: Brian Mullins

On October 21 at 10:00 a.m. EST, our CTO Jerry Melnick will be a featured presenter at the 2008 NorthEast Disaster Recovery Information X-Change (NEDRIX). Jerry’s presentation, Better Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery through Virtualization, will help attendees learn how and why server virtualization done right can:

• Make disaster recovery planning and execution much easier
• Simplify the notoriously difficult process of high availability maintenance
• Deliver high availability protection tailored for each application

Are any of you currently using virtualization for business continuity or disaster recovery? If so, what have your experiences been like thus far?

This year’s conference will take place from October 20-22 at the Hyatt Goat Island Newport, RI. For more information about the event and how you can register please visit NEDRIX’ website.

Virtualization Congress 2008: Discount for Customers and Business Partners

Posted by: Brian Mullins

As many of you may know, we will be attending virtualization.info’s Virtualization Congress 2008 in London, October 14-16. We highly recommend European IT executives attend the event to gain from vendors and peers lessons learned on planning, implementing, maintaining and maximizing virtualization investments.

Marathon CTO Jerry Melnick will be on hand at the event as a keynote speaker and will be discussing why the XenServer and everRun combination is so resilient. This won’t be the typical “marketing fluff” event you’re probably use to; instead presenters will be sharing real life case studies to illustrate how their products and services have helped deliver on the promises they’ve made to their customers. Additional keynote speakers of note include: virtualization.info founder, Alessandro Perilli, and Citrix CTO, Simon Crosby.

As a Gold Sponsor for the event, we have been given the privilege of providing our customers and business partners attending the event with a 25% discount for registration. To receive the discount simply visit the event registration page and enter the discount code: PartnersAtVC2008.
