Improve Your Technical Infrastructure in 5 Steps

November 18, 2020

Datacenter management often becomes more of a headache than the dream of streamlined resource allocation. All upgrades simultaneously impact all business operations, making it hard to choose whether to invest in scalability, flexibility, or security. And if you choose one, you might be sacrificing the other two. Luckily, there are few essential steps that can ensure you optimize your IT infrastructure in 2020 and beyond.

Follow our five tips, and you’ll be well on your way to a better and more efficient operation.

1. Assess your Transformation Goals:

Understanding your roadmap is the first step in the process. As such, you should have a clear vision that outlines the steps to fulfill your technology needs and goals. For example, if your biggest goal is to reduce costs, implementing a cloud solution is generally the cheaper option. But, if you want to create a more agile infrastructure, you’ll focus on a hybrid model.

Moreover, some other factors that will affect your transformation strategy include:

Current IT infrastructure and its scale

1. The cost of implementing the changes to your technological infrastructure

2. The costs of maintaining the new infrastructure

Make sure you take all of these into account when creating your roadmap.

2. Identify Appropriate Tools and Solutions:

You don’t want to simply migrate to a new infrastructure, you want to improve your operations and benefit from all that new technology has to offer. Thus, once you have identified these essential factors, develop a shortlist of tools and services that exceed your needs and goals. Then, filter out all your options based on cost, value, and savings.

3. Less Lagging, More Automating:

While you’re assessing different tools and services, make sure to pay attention to automation. Few automated tools enable you to shift your infrastructure to the cloud, automate network resources, and perform other tasks in mere minutes. If you choose some of these products, there’s no need for error-prone human intervention.

4. Hyper Converged Infrastructure:

At the moment, the most popular choice is a hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI). It is suitable for seamless management and improved scalability, while also making a significant impact on cost and providing better system performance. Thanks to these facts, datacenters across the US are benefiting from 24% improved scalability, 26% reduced costs and many more advantages.

5. Set your Security Standards Higher:

Security has never been a nice-to-have feature for any enterprise. It is a compulsory solution whose role changes based on your operational visibilities. That’s why you should develop an actionable security solution that allows you to monitor all the potential threats that exist in connection with various assets. Besides, you should also set the right security standard, along with a plan for meeting the benchmarks.

Final Words

It’s time to get started on your own digital transformation strategy. To succeed, though, you should follow simple steps to come up with an actionable roadmap that will provide you with more efficient IT infrastructure. Of course, it’s easier said than done. Call a DevOps specialized company to help you get through that transition in the fully-automated and secure way. A managed-service company will not only help you reach your goals, but will also ensure you improve some key areas of your network, such as scalability and reduce your IT operating costs.
