2 Your infrastructure matters more than you might think. Why? Because if you re honest with yourself, it s probably not working quite how you d like it to. This could be down to two factors: 1. As an organisation, you might be continually following fashion in ICT and changing your storage and servers to suit; or 2. You have a patchwork of technologies that don t work very well together. In either scenario, this could mean more costs for maintaining your systems, more time spent retraining IT staff and more downtime for end users. 2

3 Questions you might have at this point: The answer to all these questions lies in the way you think about your ICT infrastructure. Trying to meet the latest demands from around the business isn t the right approach then? It is not a single piece of kit. It is made up of component parts. When these actually work together then it s easy to respond to changing business requirements while maintaining strong ICT foundations. So, am I going to need to rip and replace everything I already have? Are you telling me my end-to-end solution isn t really fit-for-purpose? How can you tell me I need agile ICT and rock solid ICT at the same time? However, what your vendor sold you last time around as an end-to-end solution might not adapt very well to the latest business requirements. If you have built up your infrastructure over time then it is likely you are using up significant resources just to hold it all together. But that does not mean you have to strip everything out and start again. You just upgrade individual storage or server blocks to increase data capacities or improve analytics capabilities as your business grows. As long as your technologies talk to each other then agility and reliability do not have to be mutually exclusive. 3

4 How do I turn it around in my organisation? Ask yourself what is wrong with your ICT infrastructure right now. Then think about where you want to be.
