Get Up To Speed with Interleave
6 Mar 2008 at 5:01pm
I recently wrote an article covering the installation of a
very powerful Enterprise-ready process automation system called Interleave.
This tool is exceptional for tracking and accountability. It's features go
beyond the scope of many small company needs (but shouldn't keep smaller
ventures from deploying it) so it can cover just about any company.
Getting the system up and running was no cake walk but
it's do-able for just about anyone. Using the system can, at first, seem very
daunting (due to the incredible amount of features), but it needn't be so. It's
just a matter of making Interleave fit your needs.
With that in mind, let's get to work.
Installing System Center Essentials 2007
7 Mar 2008 at 5:49pm
For some time, Microsoft has focused on large enterprises and small business, as evidenced by products such as Small Business Server. The midmarket (500 PCs, a couple dozen servers) has very similar needs as smaller and larger enterprises, but faces unique challenges. Whereas Microsoft provides some specific products for smaller organizationsincluding the aforementioned Small Business Servermidmarket organizations have had to utilize full-fledged enterprise tools often without the benefit of large IT staffs or significant server infrastructures to do so.
Enter the "Essentials" line, which is targeted
at midmarket IT organizations. I'm not sure if all of Microsoft's mid-market
focused endeavors will use the word "Essentials" but so far, this has
been the case. For the monitoring, system management, and software deployment
side of the house, Microsoft has released System Center Essentials 2007. In
this article, I'll explain the purpose and features of this product, outline
its system requirements and limitations and walk through a sample installation.
