CHINA, Mich., Aug. 21 /PRNewswire/ — Less than 20,000 individuals worldwide currently hold the CCIE (Cisco Certified Internetworking Expert) certification, which places them among the elite computer networking experts anywhere. This distinction also demands a six-figure annual salary in America, according to recent national surveys.
To become CCIE-certified, an engineer must pass a grueling 8-hour-long hands-on “lab” exam conducted by Cisco (), the global leader in computer network solutions. IPexpert () is a primary training organization, focused solely on preparing seasoned computer network engineers for the coveted CCIE certification exams, through various learning solutions.
A typical preparation plan for a successful candidate includes working through self-study training products, which can take three to six months to complete. Then, prior to attempting the CCIE exam, many candidates choose to attend intense live classroom training, lasting one or two weeks, up to 14 hours per day. Although IPexpert’s industry-leading products are used by CCIE candidates around the world, its popular live courses are generally offered only in the United States and limited key locations abroad. With growing demand for these courses in various emerging markets, such as India and Saudi Arabia, IPexpert has aligned with Netmetric Solutions to expand its reach.
Netmetric Solutions () is a training organization headquartered in Hyderabad, India. The company is established as a leading provider of CCIE training in its geographic region, creating an ideal opportunity for resource sharing and cooperative marketing efforts with IPexpert. The partnership allows both entities to leverage the other’s physical presence and brand recognition in their regions.
President of Netmetric Solutions Khawar Butt is a veteran in the IT (Information Technology) industry, with over 30 years of experience and many career certifications to his credit, including four of the available five CCIE certification specialties. “We are very excited to be working with IPexpert in this partnership that will help bring CCIE-level training to students throughout the world. Having worked with IPexpert in the past and understanding how the company works will be a big plus in this partnership.” He adds, “We previously partnered in 2004 to bring to market one of the first offerings in the world for the CCIE Security specialization. I look forward to bringing similar types of groundbreaking products to the market in the future.”

StreamFoundry Releases CMS 3.0 - A Problem, Change and Configuration Management Solution Exclusively for Large Enterprises

July 27th, 2008 by admin

BURLINGTON, Mass., July 21 /PRNewswire/ — StreamFoundry, Inc. (SFI) broadens its focus on Service Management excellence for large enterprises with the introduction of CMS 3.0 now available using DB2 and z/OS. CMS is the only dedicated Service Management Solution for Problem, Incident, Change, Configuration, and Request Management that runs on the ibm Mainframe. CMS 3.0, using DB2, offers greater flexibility for process adaptation, integration with other applications, development and reporting. CMS can save large organizations up to a million dollars a minute.
As an example of CMS’ ease of integration, SFI will offer out-of-the-box integration with the ibm Tivoli Application Dependency Discovery Manager (TADDM) running on z/Linux. TADDM helps discover and map configuration item (CI) relationships and dependencies in real time and addresses compliance requirements.
IT Support is mission critical. CMS is a Service Management application suite that has the scalability to address the requirements of the world’s largest organizations. With the majority of mission critical operations provisioned and maintained on the ibm Mainframe, SFI offers the only ITIL-based, web-enabled Service Management Suite that operates exclusively on the host. The result is a Service Management solution that effectively aligns IT with the business.
CMS can be found at some of the world’s largest financial, automotive and government agencies. “Any large organization that runs Mission Critical operations on the ibm Mainframe will be interested in CMS,” according to StreamFoundry CEO R. Douglas Shute. CMS offers process discipline in sync with business operations for problem, incident, change, request, and configuration management, and it enables the customer to keep what works and add only what is needed.
“By running Service Management solutions on the Mainframe, enterprises will centralize management from the infrastructure level in support of the network, server and application layers,” Marc Heimlich, VP of Marketing and Sales, said. “The result is an improvement in Mean-Time-To-Repair, data integrity and Quality of Service.”
From a cost perspective, CMS provides great value by leveraging an organization’s existing infrastructure. Because CMS is a fixed-price suite, there are neither seat licenses to track nor MSUs to add. SFI can save large enterprises up to seven figures in the first year alone relative to other Service Management providers.
