Our thanks to Business Smarts for providing the great facility, and to Citrix for providing the refreshments, for last month's meeting! A special thanks to our December presenters, John Thome, VP of Chi Corporation and Bill Louth of Wooster Motor Ways for their interesting and informative presentations. We're starting this year with a compelling program of education and networking. Here's our two presentations for January... How do you support large numbers of users of mission-critical applications who demand quick response, on time, all the time? Learn the answers to this and many other questions about optimizing the deployment of applications running on Citrix in environments were response time is precious, and application availability simply cannot falter, from the Network Services team at The Cleveland Clinic Foundation. The Cleveland Clinic has the largest Citrix deployment in northern Ohio, supporting more than 7,000 knowledge workers - doctors, nurses, and clinicians - running truly mission-critical applications. Under the direction of Adam Fogelman, Asst. Director of Network Services, this team of Citrix specialists support 85 Citrix servers, and continually deliver fast application response times and 99.9% uptime over the last 3 years. Meet the Citrix Administrators who stretch Citrix MetaFrame to its limits every day. BEST PRACTICES for migrating from MetaFrame 1.8 to XPe Learn from Brian Stearman, Systems Engineer at Citrix Systems, how best to approach this perplexing process - from planning, to implementation. Whether your migration strategy involves starting a completely new farm for MetaFrame XP, or just migrating your current farm, you'll gain valuable information on the HOWs and WHYs behind Citrix Best Practices. You'll also learn valuable information about how, and when, to move from Windows NT to 2000 during your Citrix migration, and insight on how Windows .Net impacts the Citrix migration planning. It's like getting free consulting! We'll even have a round of 'Stump the Citrix SE" with a prize for the first technical question Brian can't answer.
