Infrastructure Management Report

Section Four - Architectures and Models

This section of the Report considers the architectures that previously dominated this space and compares them with the newer architectures that are emerging today, including best-of-breed models. It also examines the new focus on business level infrastructure performance management and shows how companies are approaching the delivery of this higher level, business-focused Infrastructure Management. In this section we also take a look at the emerging technologies that Butler Group believes these newer technologies will need to support. The security aspect is reviewed along with ITILITIL compliance issues. Alles zu ITIL auf CIO.de
