San Jose, California (PRWEB) March 14, 2017 -- Virtual Instruments, the leader in application-centric infrastructure performance management, announced today it is offering a free webinar on how enterprise data center teams use Critical Infrastructure Audits (CIA) to support their infrastructure transformation and cloud migration projects. Virtual Instruments’ executive Kevin LaMair will talk with Simon Close, an IT storage and operations industry veteran who worked with the company at Morrisons and Lloyd’s Banking Group, about how the Virtual Instruments CIAs play an essential role in driving infrastructure transformation.
The webinar, entitled, “CIA - An Infrastructure Audit that Always Pays for Itself,” will take place on March 16 at 12 p.m. EDT. It will provide attendees with key takeaways, such as:
- The perpetually complex state of today’s application and performance infrastructure requirements;
- Why companies should invest in an infrastructure audit and a real-world review of the process and benefits of CIAs;

“Hybrid enterprise data centers are in a constant state of transformation, resulting in ongoing cycles for development, testing and production rollouts,” said Kevin LaMair, Virtual Instruments’ senior director of enterprise professional services. “IT teams must start with the most accurate baseline possible in order to make the most effective purchasing and technology decisions for their businesses.
