Going to HP Discover in Vienna? Don't Miss These Mission-Critical Sessions!

HP Discover vertical.jpgHP DISCOVER in Vienna is fast approaching... November 29-Dec 1!  It is HP's largest technical showcase event.  We had the first Discover event in Las Vegas earlier this year, and many of you made your way there or visited our blogs and twitter feeds for news and updates from HP.  Vienna will bring more news, more announcements and more opportunities to meet colleagues and get hands on with our newest gear.  And our new CEO Meg Whitman will be speaking!

 

Again we have plenty of relevant sessions for those of you involved with mission-critical computing, interested in protecting your investments for the next decade and beyond, and meeting the challenges faced in an Instant-On world where expectations are incredibly high (and growing!) and resources are tight.
