Always put the customer first. Of course, it’s easier to say this than do it. IT systems are a good example.

For the end user, IT should be as simple as possible. After all, a system is a business tool. It exists to help reach a specific goal: to increase profitability.

But traditional IT systems are a drain on business resources.

When you look into hosting and infrastructure services, you’ll come across three types of cloud computing:

• Private
• Public

“Don’t host your own hardware and IT systems: virtualise your environment and use the cloud!”

This statement, or something like it, is common in IT circles. But a lot of companies still resist virtualisation and the cloud. The idea of reducing the physical presence of machines in an office doesn’t appeal to everyone.

Innovations with hosting and IaaS from LETN vendors - RES

IT is complex. To deny this is to underestimate the powerful tools IT can use to make your business more successful.

One of the most exciting of these tools is a hosting and infrastructure service. This transforms the way you work with IT by providing a cost-cutting virtual environment for your computer needs.

But there’s a hazard here, and it relates to complexity. Hosting and IaaS (infrastructure as a service) open up new possibilities. As a result, you can have a large range of applications on each desktop computer. In these circumstances, desktops can dominate the workplace at the expense of users. Your staff can feel overwhelmed.

The power of HP converged infrastructure systems

You may have come across the phrase “IT sprawl”. If not, you may still recognise what it refers to.

IT sprawl is a costly and frustrating phenomenon. It has developed among businesses for a number of reasons:

• A vast increase in data
• Storage systems unable to manage data effectively
• Inability of in-house hardware to cope with modern software
• IT networks expanding into areas such as wireless applications

Traditional IT systems struggle with this sprawl of demands. Administrators add servers and other IT functions in an effort to keep everything going within budget. But the result is inefficient IT delivery. This can be disastrous in industries where IT keeps businesses profitable.
