The Register webcast: The state of the x86 server estate

26 November 2009, 6am EST

We'll consider the state of play in the server room, using recent research to understand just what are the forces on the x86 server environment, and how organisations are setting about dealing with these challenges. As usual, you'll get the chance to give the presenters a good grilling and get answers to any pressing questions you may have.
