How an Intelligent Infrastructure Supports Business Productivity in the Intelligent Enterprise
Overview Today's CIOs and Information Technology (IT) directors face many increasing challenges. While this remains an expectation, complex and often competing requirements are emerging that are making their jobs more difficult: regulatory and compliance needs, systems security, development of new systems for business operations, reduced spending budgets, maintenance and enhancement of legacy systems, and retaining a mix of expensive staff operations. IT must expand upon its traditional foundation to be able to support these requirements. Controlling costs and increasing responsiveness are often mutually exclusive tasks, so IT should break down its imperatives to specific undertakings. The first imperative can be termed "Cost and Risk," which involves two components: purchasing cost-effective business-enabling capabilities; and managing a secure, unified infrastructure that reduces risk and lowers operational costs.
