Developing a Business Case for Data Center Transformation Through ITIL Best Practices and Automation
Overview Consolidation and automation have become major objectives for technology executives who must adjust to today's increasing sophistication and complexity within the data center. The trend to consolidate and automate is the result of the explosion of data and information in the digital age; unprecedented data center expansion; the need to provide uninterrupted Web services on demand; and federal, industry, and internal compliance requirements to store, access, and protect that data - all of which serve to make the data center more complex. Moreover, today's competitive enterprise must also ensure that technology staffs spend far less time on maintenance, management, and support - and more on innovation that leads to additional market opportunities and greater revenue growth.
