Presentation at Management World Americas 2007 - ContinuedThe session focused on the Next Generation Networks (NGN) environment, in which the process of end-user Service Level Agreement (SLA) management involves both Service and Content Provider’s network resources and IT infrastructure. TMF works with DMTF to enable Service Assurance and SLA monitoring to be performed transparently across transport and enterprise resources in the context of NGN. Alex’s presentation was a success in bringing DMTF to TMF. To view the presentation online, click here. DMTF a Success at Gartner Data Center Conference
On November 27-30, DMTF attended the 26th annual Gartner Data Center Conference at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada. In just three-and-a-half days, the event brought together roughly 2,000 data center professionals and their business counterparts. Gartner attendees who stopped by the DMTF booth received an overview of the CDM, DASH and SMASH initiatives, and learned more about the organization and its presence in the industry. DMTF also unveiled two critical announcements while at the Gartner event: the launch of a new open standard for system virtualization management, and the acceptance of the CMDB Federation draft specification. On the analyst front, several Gartner analysts highlighted DMTF technologies at their speaking sessions: Thomas Bittman on Open Virtual Machine Format, Cameron Haight on SVPC work, and Ronnie Colville and Patricia Adams on CMDB Federation work. DMTF also secured two new members while at Gartner Data Center Conference: ManageIQ and Fortisphere. We proudly welcome these companies into our growing organization! We would also like to thank member companies Microsoft, Symantec, Avocent, BMC Software, EMC, Brocade, HP, IBM, Oracle, Unisys, CA, Hitachi and VMware for driving traffic to the DMTF booth during the show.
