About ServerWatch

What We Do

For more than a decade, ServerWatch has provided server administrators and other data center professionals with in-depth technical and business insights by focusing exclusively on the information needs of server pros. The site relies on the journalism expertise of its editorial staff and the knowledge of industry experts provide analysis and reporting on the latest news and trends as they relate to the data center.

Opinions and product coverage of everything pertinent to servers, including virtualization, server hardware, server software, server operating systems, open source and data center management can be found on ServerWatch. Other topics frequently encountered on ServerWatch include cloud computing, power and cooling, security, storage and mobile management.

In addition, ServerWatch strives to provide comprehensive product information through our buying guides, reviews, product lists, and how-tos and tutorials.

These special topics will be covered on ServerWatch and across all IT Business Edge Network sites in 2012. Our coverage will not be limited to these topics, but we plan to leverage resources across the network to take an in-depth look at a key topic each month.
