Top 10 riesgos de TI (Numero 8)
The Problem:
Frequently, companies fail to examine their server infrastructure and assess opportunities for variouslevels of consolidation, like application consolidation, server reduction and virtualization, data consolidation, and location centralization. An audit of existing servers can pinpoint majorinefficiencies and help companies implement consolidation projects that deliver the greatest ROI while improving IT efficiency. In the long run, only a comprehensive and well-conceived consolidation strategycan deliver lasting business value.
The Consequences:
Failure to seize opportunities for server consolidation can risk your company’s:
TCO— Inefficient, multiple servers running the sameapplications in multiple geographies require local IT management and support, raising the overall TCO.
Computing Infrastructure— Redundant geographically distributed servers, identical application servers,and multiple “small-scale” legacy servers increase the overall complexity of the computing infrastructure, making it more difficult and costly to maintain.
Efficiency— As the complexity of theserver environment and the physical number of servers increases, it becomes more difficult to implement sound IT practices, policies, and processes that improve overall operational efficiency.
TheSolution:
Determine which computing resources can be consolidated. Plan your consolidation projects to address the inefficiencies that drive up your company’s operating costs and impede your businessagility. Focus on consolidation projects that deliver maximum value for every dollar spent, and you’ll be able to lower your costs, simplify your environment, and create a more agile infrastructure formeeting future business challenges.
