Symantec to Present at the Virtualization Conference & Expo, June 23-24, in New York City

Sean Derrington's Virtualization Session "Managing Storage in the Virtual Enterprise"

It’s no secret that data centers are faced with exponential storage growth, increasing operational costs, power and cooling limitations, and the need to provision and bring new applications online more rapidly to support critical business needs, many customers look to virtualization strategies to ease the management burden.

SRM technology can address the demands and management complexities that virtualization presents. Virtualization, by definition, can apply to operating systems, applications and storage arrays. This session will identify and elaborate on the various virtualization categories, and talk about how SRM technology can enable IT organizations to manage storage in the virtual enterprise.

Speaker Bio: Sean Derrington is director of storage management and CDP/R in Symantec Corporation’s Data Center Management Group and is responsible for product marketing, product strategy, and outbound marketing for Veritas Storage Foundation and Storage Management products.

Sean joined Symantec through the company’s merger with Veritas software. Prior to joining Veritas, Sean was senior program director of META Group's Server Infrastructure Strategies. Derrington earned a bachelor’s degree in material science and engineering and a bachelor’s degree in engineering and public policy from Carnegie Mellon University.
