Pauline Nist keynote: Accelerating mission critical transformation (2011 Red Hat Summit)
Channel: Red Hat
Date: 2011-08-02

Pauline Nist, general manager of the mission-critical segment of the datacenter group at Intel, speaks at the 2011 Red Hat Summit and JBossWorld.

Nist speaks about the acceleration of mission-critical IT, as well as the growth and expansion of cloud infrastructures. She emphasizes the necessity of openness and choice in providing a robust, flexible cloud solution that can support secure and scalable migrations and deployments.

Using examples from Gartner, IDC, and other technology experts, she discusses the migration from UNIX to Linux technologies, from mainframe to x86, and from bare metal to virtualized infrastructure. She follows the budget implications of these changes--talking about how these migrations allow for savings and re-distribution of funds to important new projects and technologies.

Nist also talks about the benefits of the partnership between Red Hat and Intel, and the integration of hardware, software, and services that allow customers to trust that their systems and support will work seamlessly together.

She also speaks about recent developments in hardware, with enhanced processors and memory that can now deliver three times the performance of previous systems, with increased reliability and flexibility. These systems and software offerings have been supported fully by the partner ecosystem from the moment of their inception.
