Optinuity CEO a Speaker at Gartner Data Center Conference


Scott Stouffer to Discuss the Next Generation of IT Automation for the Data Center: Self-Managing Systems and Applications

BETHESDA, Md., Nov. 19 -- Optinuity®, Inc., an early pioneer in the field of IT automation, today announced that its CEO, Scott Stouffer, will speak at Gartner's Annual Data Center Conference in Las Vegas, from 11:00 a.m. - 11:30 a.m. on Thursday, Nov. 29, 2007. As part of the event's Solution Provider sessions, Stouffer will address why enterprises need to evolve beyond the traditional model of IT management and adopt Autonomic Policy Management (APM) solutions. These next-generation solutions make IT systems and applications truly self-healing, self-optimizing, self-configuring - in essence, self-managing.

"In recent years, the complexity of managing the data center - both systems and applications - has been rapidly accelerating and is actually a barrier to growth," said Stouffer. "The traditional approach of adding point solutions to deal with issues as they arise is costly and inefficient, and it contributes to the growing management burden of data center executives. What's needed is a system that can head off crises without human intervention." Stouffer added that a key theme of his address will be an automation approach that enables enterprises to create and deploy autonomic policies in order to achieve self-management for critical business applications in the data center.

The Gartner Data Center Conference is the industry's most comprehensive compilation of sessions and advice on the future of the data center. It offers the latest actionable insights and best practices in all areas affecting the data center, including real-time infrastructure, servers and storage, business continuity, and disaster recovery.
