The problem is change; the solution is change. Like firefighters setting controlled burns to combat forest fires, IT managers are addressing the demands of business change by introducing change of their own. To meet new business needs, new applications are deployed on new architectures using new technologies. To serve growing demands for service availability, IT implements network redundancy and server clusters. To improve efficiency, IT turns to server, storage and user access virtualization. To address corporate security and governance requirements, IT implements new processes and tools. And often the IT organization begins to mirror the technology itself with new teams of professionals organized into expertise silos, each with its own technology focus. |
