IT is in a tough position. As an IT architect, you want to provide the services users expect. But you have to support a complex legacy, which is expensive to maintain.
Put your IT budget to better use
On average, 75% of your IT budget is consumed keeping existing systems running. Wouldn’t you rather use more of that money for delivering services that foster innovation, accelerate growth, and help your organization compete in today’s what-have-you-done-for-me-lately market?
Position your company to reap cloud benefits
Cloud is poised to redefine how IT manages and deploys infrastructure. It promises lower operational costs, platform flexibility, limitless resource elasticity, and self-service consumption. But if you don’t plan for key considerations, cloud computing can make IT infrastructure harder to manage and deploy, and less beneficial than promised.
In this webinar, learn the key issues you should consider prior to deploying your cloud, including:
- Maximizing your infrastructure choices and flexibility—now and in future.
- Avoiding application complexity, which can quickly erode cloud benefits.
- Ensuring portability of cloud applications and workloads—essential to a fluid infrastructure model.
- Instituting governance and control around self-service access to increase cloud security.
