SAN JOSÉ, CALIF., December 6, 2005 – Eric Arnold, CenterBeam’s vice president of technical engineering operations and chief security officer, will present a case study on CenterBeam’s state-of-the-art IT infrastructure during Gartner’s 24th annual data center conference in Las Vegas. Hewlett–Packard selected CenterBeam from all of its customers to represent how organizations can use that company’s products to create business value.
Hewlett–Packard repeatedly turns to CenterBeam as an example of innovative application of its products and platforms. During the past four years, CenterBeam has frequently been used as a media and analyst reference for HP’s blade system products, HP OpenView, and HP Insight Manager. HP has even researched and published a case study on how CenterBeam delivers enterprise-class IT services to mid-size organizations.
CenterBeam’s Eric Arnold is responsible for the development and engineering of CenterBeam’s technology infrastructure, as well as oversight of the ongoing operations and service delivery teams. In addition Eric oversees the implementation of the CenterBeam service for new clients. As CenterBeam’s chief security officer Arnold is frequently referenced in the media as an expert on the IT aspects of SOX compliance. Recently Arnold published The CFO's Guide to SOX IT Compliance: Top Line Information Delivering Bottom Line Savings that CenterBeam makes available free-of-charge. Arnold will address the conference on December 7th at 3:00pm.
Just like HP, Gartner frequently turns to CenterBeam as an example of state-of-the-art IT service delivery. Gartner has published a case study on the CenterBeam service and cited CenterBeam’s innovative approach when the firm named CenterBeam one of the “Cool Vendors” in IT management.
