Next-Generation Unified Messaging
The Issue
For some, migration to unified messaging is a key component of VoIP plans. For others, voice messaging replacement has a new urgency and is being addressed separately. Many factors lead to this renewed interest: obsolescence of legacy voicemail systems, e-discovery and compliance rules, and the need for new capabilities to support remote workers. Finally, enterprises are looking to reduce the cost of managing complex disparate systems assembled by distributed purchasing or acquisition of other businesses.

Desktop virtualization, in which a number of PCs can work off one computer box, thus saving substantial power and cost, is a fast-growing sector of the virtualization picture. Desktop virtualization is designed to give administrators and end users the best of both worlds: the ability to host and centrally manage desktop virtual machines in the data center while giving end users a full PC desktop experience. Using desktop virtualization, dozens or even hundreds of workstations can run off of a few computer boxes. Because of the economy of scale, this is particularly useful in budget-strapped school districts, which are starting to discover the value in virtualized desktops. eWeek Senior Writer and Storage Station blogger Chris Preimesberger reports.
