I received an email advertisement from "Software Development" magazine inviting me to a net seminar on "Enterprise Benchmarking". The sponsors are Dr. Dobbs Journal and Intel. Designed for decision makers, this course demystifies "enterprise benchmarking". Topics covered include: * Characteristics of a good benchmark * Common enterprise benchmarks * How to use a benchmark for decision making while avoiding the common pitfalls * How to benchmark your new "virtualized infrastructure environment" that uses virtual machines and virtualization technologies * Intel software tools available to help you with your enterprise benchmarking initiatives * A review of available industry vertical specific benchmarks
