Does your company know how the next software patch or configuration change will impact uptime? An alarming number of companies cannot be completely sure what any change will do to their critical business applications. Their IT operations teams lack the testing resources and processes to understand the impact of changes and be sure that they won't cause service degradation, or, worse yet, take an application offline completely. And yet today's business environment requires that systems be available 24/7 for people both inside and outside the company. So how can you better understand the impacts of changes to the software infrastructure? And what are the costs associated with testing?
In this webcast, trusted advisors from Gartner and StackSafe discuss the importance of software infrastructure testing to improve uptime. You'll also find out why new technologies like virtualization can make testing easier and more effective.
