Traditional data centres are now feeling the impact of disruption from the cloud, edge computing, advances in colocation and hosting services.

Highlights

  • Expand I&O skill sets, practices and procedures to accommodate unbiased, hybrid IT operations and develop a hybrid IT workload placement strategy to maximise business value.
  • Create an asset inventory of infrastructure products, people, processes and providers across the IT project portfolio to start the process of simplifying, standardising and rationalising the enterprise data centre.
  • Select and design infrastructure that is adaptable to the resilience requirements of digital business systems by establishing planning principles that account for the changing nature of infrastructure resilience debt.
