“There have never been so many options for the IT department to provide services for business, from
on-premise to as-a-service, and all variations of cloud: but a common thread is automation, to make whatever mix is right for your business manageable, efficient and productive.” Paul Hearns, Editor, TechPro magazine |
TechFire 11, in Dublin on 2nd October, addressed the question: Automation: Is it the answer to your emerging IT questions?
Attendees at this briefing discussed how converged infrastructure underpins IT automation, allowing for faster provisioning of application-based services across hybrid environments. Automation creates seamless access across internal IT infrastructure to external services, allowing the IT department to broker cloud services, while remaining in control for security, compliance and data protection. This flexibility allows organisations to become more agile and efficient, and ready to tackle the threat of shadow IT. This TechFire briefing, in association with HP and PFH, explored how automation, service brokerage and existing IT capabilities can be brought together to provide the best possible blend of services and capabilities for your business. A user interview discussed the complexities of implementation, as well as the critical evaluation phase. |
