IT Infrastructure & Management

CHALLENGES OF MANAGING YOUR IT INFRASTRUCTURE

Without the right tools and processes in place, it’s impossible to guarantee your digital pathways are secure and up-to-date. Plus, with all of the different components that go into making sure everything is functioning correctly, it’s easy for something to slip through the cracks.

Whether you’re trying to do it yourself or you have a small in-house team, you’ll be stretched too thin. Considering the technicality of IT infrastructure management—maintaining hardware, software, and networks—it’s likely that you’ll need to outsource some of the work or hire more IT employees.

 

What Is IT Infrastructure Management?

All of the data you use to make decisions and serve clients has to have pathways to its intended use; your email, applications, and documents are examples of pathways. IT infrastructure management is the process of monitoring and maintaining these pathways to ensure that they are up-to-date and functioning correctly. Components like the following make up your IT infrastructure:

  • Switches
  • Routers
  • Servers
  • Cloud Infrastructure
  • Server Rooms/Data Centers
  • Power (UPS, PDUs, Generators)
  • Firewalls & Infrastructure Security
  • Telecommunications; Cabling & Wireless
  • Service Components (OS, App Installation, User Provisioning)

With all of those different aspects of IT infrastructure, it’s no wonder they need to be managed effectively! All of your organizational data travels through digital pathways and just like the highway, these pathways need someone to make sure they’re well maintained.

Risks of Poor IT Infrastructure Management

The risks far outweigh any money you might save by managing IT infrastructure on your own. A data breach alone could cost you your business. In fact, data shows that 60% of small businesses shut down within 6 months of a cyberattack.

Poorly managed IT infrastructure leaves you open to these threats:

  • Poor customer experience due to slow loading times or system downtime
  • Diminished organizational productivity caused by poor user experience
  • Difficulty in complying with regulations for data protection and privacy
  • Unreliability due to outdated equipment or poorly configured systems
  • Inability to scale operations with the latest technology solutions  
  • Lack of visibility into your infrastructure performance metrics   
  • Increased costs related to IT maintenance and support 
  • Risk of losing competitive advantage
  • Security threats and data breaches
