Development of IT strategy

IT strategy and Architecture of IT solutions

Long gone are the days when it was enough to buy a few computers, a printer, and install an accounting application to meet business needs. Modern business processes are not only quite complex, but also dynamically changing, which is why IT systems are becoming more and more complex. ERP, CRM, BI, AI – these and many other terms, which no one has heard of recently, are now familiar not only to IT specialists – without these systems, the functioning of a modern enterprise is impossible, and their implementation becomes a condition for successful business growth.

But there is one “but”: when planning the deployment or updating of such in-demand IT services, it is important not to forget about the basis – the basic IT infrastructure. A grand palace cannot be built without a stable foundation.

IT infrastructure as a strategic asset:

It is customary to define the IT infrastructure as a set of interconnected services and systems that ensure the functioning and development of the company’s means of information interaction. The components of the IT infrastructure include: server equipment and data storage, network infrastructure, virtualization, monitoring, backup and recovery services, data center engineering systems, cloud, and many others. Without a correctly built and managed IT infrastructure, the normal life cycle of any information system is impossible. Therefore, it should become a strategic asset of a modern company.
