Session Synopsis
Radically changed times call for radical measures and many firms will look at how IT operations are conducted in their entirety.
Some will choose to outsource activities but others will choose to be more selective and seek to retain control while reducing their administration burden and only outsourcing parts of their IT infrastructure.
Anthony Foy looks how organizations can leverage shared infrastructure in order to reduce capital expenditure whilst improving availability.
