>"Performance" Found to be Key to Diskeeper's Cost-Justification
>
>A recent study of large-site Diskeeper purchases has concluded that the
>performance gain available from Diskeeper is the key to cost-justifying
>volume purchases.
>
>The study found that the majority of system managers who had to
>cost-justify large Diskeeper purchases to their management did not have
>to do formal benchmark testing. They simply loaded trial versions of the
>product on several key machines and monitored them for performance
>gains.  The performance increases were so noticeable that this
>information was simply included with their purchase requisitions, and
>purchases were quickly approved.
>
>A number of system administrators even went as far as loading trail
>versions of the product on their managers' machines, so that the
>managers could see the performance differences for themselves.  This
>made cost-justification even easier - the individuals involved in
>approving the purchase had already witnessed for themselves the benefit
>Diskeeper provides.
>
>This study was done as part of a larger body of research investigating
>the overall impact of fragmentation on corporations.  Since
>fragmentation markedly slows performance, it also slows user
>productivity and has a demonstrably negative impact on company
>operations and profitability.   Specific findings will be released in
>the near future; however, the inferences of slow performance have
>already been, and certainly can continue to be successfully used in any
>cost-justification process.
>
>Additional cost-justification points included Diskeeper's network
>capabilities and its ability to defragment directories, making it the
>only product of its kind in the Windows NT market.   Also noted were
>Diskeeper's safety, reliability, and ease-of-use.
>
>An earlier part of this study found that in addition to the performance
>gain, Diskeeper's "Set It and Forget It"(r) feature was the major reason
>system administrators upgraded either from Diskeeper Lite or from
>Trialware versions.   The amount of time saved from not having to
>manually run Diskeeper on every machine was found to be a substantial
>benefit by these system administrators who are already proponents for
>the number one defragmentation technology available.
>
>If you need help cost-justifying your Diskeeper purchase, please contact
>your Executive Software sales representative, or send an e-mail to
>editor@executive.com, and I'll ensure someone gets right back you.>
>Maximize your Windows NT performance by putting Diskeeper on all your
>Windows NT systems.   We have substantial quantity discounts available
>to help you do so.  Contact your favorite reseller, or order direct.

>2.  WINDOWS NT NEWS
>
>Microsoft Announces Open License Agreements
>
>In the effort to make managing Windows NT even easier and more
>cost-effective, Microsoft has announced a new program called Open
>License Agreements. The Open License program is designed to provide a
>simple volume-licensing solution for small and medium-sized corporate,
>government, and educational organizations with 5 to 1,000+ PCs.  One
>acquires the minimum number of units at one of three price levels, and
>continues to receive that discount level for reorders over the next two
>years, and reorders can be for as few as one unit per product category
>(Application, System, or Server).  The program also allows for adding
>upgrades at reduced pricing.
>
>For more information on the program, go to:

>Microsoft and Compaq Make NT-UNIX Interoperability Pact
>
>Microsoft and Compaq have made a joint announcement to further NT-UNIX
>interoperability, in an effort to address the needs of customers who
>require a high degree of workability between both systems.
>Specifically, the pact addresses Windows NT and Compaq's Digital UNIX,
>and promises to bring the following:
>
>- Support for the Microsoft Component Object Model (COM) on Compaq's
>Digital UNIX, allowing better integration between the programming models
>of the two systems.
>
>- Security and Active Directory interoperability engineering
>
>- Transaction processing and data management interoperability services,
>allowing reliable execution of distributed heterogeneous transaction
>processing and database operations
>
>- Microsoft's Windows NT-based services for UNIX support for Compaq's
>Digital UNIX
>
>Some of these technologies will also be implemented on and will enhance
>operability between OpenVMS and the Tandem NonStop Kernel platforms with
>Windows NT.
>
>Microsoft and Compaq plan to provide more details on these initiatives
>as these products near market.

>
>Sun Integrates with Windows NT
>
>While involved with litigation with Microsoft over Java, Sun
>Microsystems has announced a new technology designed to integrate their
>Solaris servers into Windows NT networks.
>
>The new technology - code named "Project Cascade" - allows Solaris
>servers, of either the Intel or SPARC platforms, to provide native
>Windows NT network services such as naming, authentication, file, and
>print sharing.  Note that the servers are still running Solaris, the Sun
>variety of UNIX, and are running Windows NT services on top of it,
>through the facility of the new software.  According to Sun, no special
>Client software is needed, as clients can access the server as they
>would a regular Windows NT server, and it is transparent to users.
>
>The Project Cascade software, which is compatible with the network
>features in Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 3, includes the Windows NT
>Directory Service, security and authentication, and the Windows NT File
>System (NTFS).
>
>Pricing and availability for this software will be announced in the
>first quarter of 1999.
