Diskeeper Corporation recently delivered a live webinar hosted by Ziff Davis Enterprise. The principle topics covered were:

• Measuring performance loss in Windows over SAN
• Identifying client-side performance bottlenecks in private clouds
• Expanding performance awareness to the client level
• The greatest and often-overlooked performance issue in a virtual ecosystem

The webinar was co-hosted by:

Recently, there’s been a lot of talk about built-in defragging systems. Is Windows®7 the best option? In the latest issue of Processor Magazine, experts weigh in, making the case for Diskeeper’s optimization in the enterprise.

Here's a cool succes about something many IT pro's wouldn't normally associate with defrag:

When we began to invest in Diskeeper we had 8 servers and over 100+ clients that ran for years and would run for many more years. Every 11 weeks we start a new quarter and cycled on average 400 users across all of them each quarter. So you can image the amount of data our students move across these machines. Not to mention the amount of data that is moved across our servers with 600+ users. 

Diskeeper drastically improved our disk performance and kept it constant with the automatic defragmentation during idle time. Diskeeper not only helped with maintaining the disk performance, but also made it possible for quick disaster recovery.

We had an old file server that crashed and file backups were being neglected, so we had to run file recovery on the RAID 5 array. Without Diskeeper automatically defragging the drive and keeping all the pieces of the files together, we would have lost 50% of the data; instead we were able to recover 95% of the 300 Gb of information.
