Benchmarking center, ERP and interoperability to take center stage at conference
THE MERISEL OPEN Computing Alliance next month plans to open a benchmarking center to give end-user customers looking for Sun Microsystems Inc. solutions a chance to try before they buy.
MOCA, the division of El Segundo, Calif based Merisel Inc. dedicated to the Sun platform and compatible products, will pitch the center at a reseller conference taking place here this week.
As many as 150 resellers are expected to attend the event, dubbed Net@Work Partner Forum, at the Ritz-Carlton. Merisel President Jim Illson is scheduled to welcome them this morning with remarks about the market and seizing midrange systems opportunities. Sessions and seminars on technology updates, business development and marketing opportunities will follow.
