Change
is Always
Refreshing
“Most of the IT heads
take cognisance of
the fact that periodic
fine-tuning of the data
centre is imperative to
extract the value”
i am sure all of you agree that change
is always welcome, and positive
change is always stimulating. this applies
to everyone and everything.You would be surprised why i
am speaking about change. The current reference is to information
technology which is influencing everyone’s lifestyle and bringing about a
change in the basic culture. Then, why not change the heart of IT, which is
the data centre -- and which is governing the entire IT play?
g e e t h a N a N d i ko t k u r
The current edition of IT Next’s cover feature, ‘The Fine-Tuners,’ speaks
about the change required in the data centre to make it more healthy and
efficient. Most of the IT heads and IT managers that my team interacted
with take cognisance of the fact that periodic fine-tuning of the data centre
is imperative to extract the maximum value out of its ingredients.
The initiative or thought behind overhauling the data centre stems from
the fact that the data centre is critical and is the bread and butter for all the
industry players. Be it the vendor, customer or service provider -- each of
them has to thrive on the success of data centre usage and its support to
business growth. In the past, the data centre was treated more as hardware
and the IT team’s role was associated with doing the mundane job of data
centre maintenance in just keeping the lights on. Of late, however, there is a
change in perception and it is indeed positive. It is just not the IT team but
the business groups that also realise the dependency of the business and
the company’s growth on the data centre’s performance. There has been
sufficient push and investments planned around upgrading, fine-tuning
and re-architecting the entire data centre and its components to bring in
state-of-the-art technologies which could help business users. The CFOs
are conscious of the RoI that a healthy data centre can bring in -- which is a
positive change that you can reckon with.
