GridApp Systems to Host "SQL Sever Sprawl - Can Your Database Infrastructure Handle It?" Webinar

Complimentary Webinar Addresses Ways Organizations Can Consolidate SQL Server Database Instances

NEW YORK - June 4, 2008 -- GridApp Systems, Inc. (www.gridapp.com), the leading provider of database automation software and solutions, today announced that it will host a complimentary Webinar on Tuesday, June 24 from 1:00 - 2:00 p.m. ET (10:00 - 11:00 a.m. PT) entitled, "SQL Sever Sprawl - Can Your Database Infrastructure Handle It?"

Join Matthew Zito, chief scientist of GridApp Systems, as he discusses ways in which businesses can navigate the complexity surrounding the management of SQL server instances.

Microsoft SQL Server user adoption rates have continued to increase; according to Gartner, SQL Server market share grew by 28% in 2006 - with implementation primarily attributed to ease of use and deployment. Due to its inherent ease of installation, IT teams often build additional SQL Server instances rather than properly manage existing instances. By ignoring the sprawl, IT teams waste time, resources, and company profits - while increasing the risk of critical database instances being left unpatched and incorrectly configured. In order to mitigate risk, it is imperative that organizations engage in more efficient practices for managing SQL Server instances.

The Webinar will address:

  • The current complexity and challenges of the SQL Server environment
  • How businesses can simplify and automate time-intensive tasks such as consolidation, migration, standardization, and policy enforcement
  • How to manage and ensure successful SQL Server upgrades
  • How to drive predictability throughout organizations to gain control of database infrastructures
  • How to guarantee security and stability across SQL Server environments
