Learn strategies to avoid virtualization gotchas, and manage data in a virtual world at Technosium

Acronis VP Ed Harnish Presents on January 30 & 31 in Santa Clara, Calif.

BURLINGTON, Mass., January 22, 2008 — Acronis, Inc. (www.acronis.com.au), a leading developer of storage management software, announced today that vice president Ed Harnish will present twice at Technosium 2008 Conference and Expo taking place January 29-31, 2008 at the Santa Clara Convention Center in Santa Clara, Calif.

Harnish will cover the topic of virtualization from two angles. First, he'll discuss the opportunities presented by virtualization from resource consolidation and extended application life, to increased performance and improved security. Second, for those who have already virtualized their data centers, Harnish will review some of the risks associated with this IT trend, and discuss best practices and how to ensure that managers are realizing virtualization's full ROI potential.

"Virtualization has a myriad of benefits for the data center, but also some challenges," said Harnish.
