New Chapter: Identifying High Impact Areas for Automation

The Executive Guide to IT Process Automation  Download the newest chapter from The Executive Guide to IT Process Automation!

When considering areas for improvement within your IT organization, the place to start is those areas that are the greatest sources of pain. Manual, high-impact, high-volume tasks are often at the center of IT attention (and tension), as these tasks are the most likely to be high visibility when they fail. Incident and problem management tasks, software and server provisioning, security, and disaster recovery solutions can all benefit from ITPA.

Chapter 3: Identifying High Impact Areas for Automation, written by Chad Marshall, is available at: http://nexus.realtimepublishers.com/EGITPA.htm

New Chapter: A Primer on BSM

The Definitive Guide to Business Service ManagementDownload the newest chapter from The Definitive Guide to Business Service Management!

The intent for this chapter is to provide you with a sort of crib sheet for the concepts and major topics we’ve discussed throughout each of the previous chapters. As a Definitive Guide, this book is intended to be fully comprehensive in the story it attempts to tell. But sometimes what you really need is a down-and-dirty explanation with plenty of useful images to be used in helping others understand the utility and value associated with BSM. That being said, this chapter intends to wrap up our conversation on BSM as well as reiterate the critical concepts and takeaways discussed in each of the earlier chapters.

Chapter 10: A Primer on BSM, authored by Greg Shields, is available at: http://nexus.realtimepublishers.com/DGBSM.htm

New Chapter: Server Core

The Definitive Guide to Building a Windows Server 2008 InfrastructureDownload the newest chapter from The Definitive Guide to Building a Windows Server 2008 Infrastructure!

In developing Windows Server 2008, Microsoft has realized that there are situations where administrators want to sacrifice flexibility in place of greater security, a lower profile, and easier remote administration. Enlightened administrators who are willing to change their processes just a little for these special circumstances can stand to gain through a streamlined OS that sports minimal interfaces and limited configuration options. That “new and different way” is Windows Server Core.

Series Spotlight: The Business Value of SIP VoIP and Trunking

The Essentials Series: The Business Value of SIP VoIP Download the first and second articles!

Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) has taken root as the unifying protocol on which all vital communications services now rely. SIP is more than just another standards-based protocol. Today it's the de facto standard for unified communications, enabling trunking, peering and voice/data/video integration. The Essentials Series: The Business Value of SIP VoIP and Trunking explores advances in VoIP technologies with VoIP as a critical foundation element for unified communications. The series closes with a review of the convergence of telecommunications trunking with the unified communications premise that voice is the platform.

The Essentials Series: The Business Value of SIP VoIP and Trunking, authored by Ken Camp, is available at: http://nexus.realtimepublishers.com/ESBVSVT.htm
