Fostering innovation has become
a non-negotiable requirement for any business
enterprise's business agility; to be an organization
that can not only "predict" future opportunities
and challenges, but also one that’s fully
equipped to "create" the future. Successful,
agile businesses are those enterprises that have
IT structures that are highly adaptable and extremely
flexible.
But attaining and maintaining
business agility doesn't necessarily require expensive
IT budgets. It is now possible for enterprises
to reduce the cost of IT (the data centers, networks,
IT planning, architecture, and software tools
that support businesses) and create standardized
and streamlined assets, technologies, and processes.
Enterprises around the world
are going through makeovers that cut down their
excess flab of complex IT infrastructure and architecture,
resulting in slimmer and more toned, agile applications.
CTE has innovated the Adaptable
and Affordable IT (A2IT) framework so it can help
enterprises plan and create IT infrastructure
and architecture that is simple, flexible, and
cost-efficient. In many organizations, complicated
IT planning and on-demand infrastructure acquisition
lead to complex and inflexible architecture, making
the IT architecture rigid, which increases the
cost of IT and the cost of maintaining these systems
and leaves most of the resources underutilized.
Effective planning reduces the
cost of maintenance by making it possible to group
thousands of applications and databases that may
be dispersed across the architecture into logical
blocks with a minimum of interconnections. CTE’s
A2IT framework provides the basis for managing
the entire organization's IT needs, and offers
a next‑generation plan to revamp technology
infrastructure and enterprise architecture.
