So it should come as no surprise that alignment is the top goal of IT professionals deploying service-oriented architecture (SOA) technology. According to a recent IDG Research survey, 83% of IT managers rate the ability to map IT capabilities to business needs as "critical" or "important" when evaluating SOA platforms. Popular Resources Right Now Overcoming Speed Bumps on the Road to Business Analytics As companies strive to extract full value from all the data in their environments, their BI tools are running up against unprecedented new challenges. This paper explores how the right data management architecture can overcome these challenges. How the Cloud Changes the Network This document discusses the importance of the network to cloud computing, why the network must change, and what Cisco is doing to lead these changes. 10 Things You Should Do to Improve Backup Provide users with full access to servers while they're recovering – it's not science fiction. The right tools can detect the disk blocks that are needed to fulfill user requests and restore those blocks first, getting servers back online in just minutes.

The Friday Five Posted: 02 Dec 2011 03:11 PM PST This Week's Top 5 Tech Resources   Featured White Paper Extend your VMware Cloud Infrastructure with a Private PaaS If your business already uses VMware's Cloud Infrastructure as a virtualization platform, it is well on its way to providing IT as a service. But as businesses demand faster results in today's competitive market, organizations look to gain more benefits from cloud computing than a virtualized infrastructure. Popular Resources Right Now AC vs. DC Power Distribution for Data Centers DC power distribution has been proposed as an alternative to AC power distribution in data centers, but misinformation and conflicting claims have confused the discussion.

The Top 5 Phone Systems Compared and Contrasted Which phone system is an editor's top pick?
