href=\"https:\/\/www.brighttalk.com\/webcast\/286\/218807?utm_source=TL&amp;utm_medium=Social&amp;utm_campaign=Promo\">Optimizing Storage for Virtualization in Windows Server<\/a>.\u00a0 Here&#8217;s an overview of the topic for this free online webinar:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Virtualization workloads generate many requirements and challenges for IT departments, including high performance, low latency, high-availability and the ability to quickly move and reconfigure workloads based on changing demands.\u00a0 This presentation focuses on best practices for employing a wide array of different storage features in the Windows Server platform.\u00a0 Details range from the SMB 3.x protocol to data-deduplication, clustering, Hyper-V Replica, and many more related features.\u00a0 The presentation will begin with suggestions for determining requirements for different kinds of virtual disks and different business workloads.\u00a0 Based on these requirements, we&#8217;ll drill-down in to practical advice on how, when, and why these features can help increase service delivery and reduce costs for virtualized environments of all sizes.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>If you can&#8217;t make it to the live session, it will also be available for viewing after the conference.<\/p>\n<p><em>Update:\u00a0 The presentation was originally scheduled for October 18th, and has been moved back by one day.\u00a0 If the new time doesn&#8217;t work well for you, remember that the presentation will always be available on-demand, soon after the live recording.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span
