Service Level Agreement (SLA) is that part of a service contract in which a certain level of service is agreed. A SLA is therefore NOT a type of service contract, but a part of a service contract. A service contract can contain zero, one or more SLA's. A contract containing SLA's is usually referred to as a performance contract. SLA's are becoming more and more popular. They are used extensively for provision of IT services, but also in other fields the popularity of SLA's is growing |

Companies are learning how to run their data centers more efficiently using less hardware, less software and less IT resources. These companies are turning to a new concept called application grid, an infrastructure layer beneath the application layer that pools and dynamically provisions the resources on which those applications run. Application grid brings the same type of efficiency, scalability, and quality of service to the application layer that database clusters brings to the database layer. With an application grid you get greater efficiency, exceptional agility, and superior quality of service.

As networks, security threats, and other requirements increase in complexity, monitoring of enterprise infrastructures has become a difficult yet crucial exercise. Monitoring Optimization, a new solution for making sense of the chaos, has emerged as an ideal solution for maximizing network coverage and maintaining optimal utilization of hardware monitoring tools. However, there is a third variable at play - the productivity of the staff responsible for managing monitoring, a staff that is shrinking in the wake of layoffs. This brief reviews how important the third variable is, and how Monitoring Optimization is the only solution to manage all three variables.

Today's confidentiality and privacy requirements drive organizations of all sizes and industries to secure sensitive data in email. Often particular types of data need to be encrypted, such as credit card numbers, intellectual property, or client information. Organizations also need to protect confidential emails for particular groups, such as executive management, human resources or legal departments.
Many organizations are turning to policy-based encryption to meet their encryption needs because it automatically encrypts data using content filtering rules that identify types of content or email for particular groups. Encryption is applied when the rules are triggered. With policy-based encryption, organizations avoid relying on individual users to secure important content.

When properly architected and executed, Data Services can provide the missing link that unifies conventional data systems with the emerging SOA paradigm. By offering a decoupled data facade and an easily virtualized API, Data Services can give SOA the opportunity to establish system control without always forcing enterprise data through an inefficient XML layer.
