Gain competitive advantage and grow your business through optimised IT infrastructure and platforms
The Microsoft Optimisation models provide organisations with a systematic methodology to assess and improve their infrastructure and platform optimization. It focuses on making sure that an organisation’s IT assets support and advance the business.
It’s aim is to:-
- Drive cost reductions, security and efficiency gains
- improve IT service levels
- increase agility
Microsoft has developed three models (Application Platform, Business Productivity Infrastructure and Core Infrastructure Optimisation Models) that outline a progression through four levels of optimisation ranging from Basic to Dynamic.
The four stages of Microsoft's IO model include basic, standardised, rationalised, and dynamic.
The basic level describes an organisation with ad hoc processes and systems, few common configurations, and no processes in place to develop performance baselines or capture results or experiences from IT projects.
The standardised level describes an organisation that employs some automation for its systems, uses policies to enforce standardized desktop and server configurations, and has repeatable processes in place to manage change.
The rationalised level describes an IT infrastructure that is extensively automated and monitored, uses policies to deploy and maintain systems, and has processes that ensure reliability and security.
The dynamic level describes policy-driven systems that can deploy and configure software on the fly, reallocate resources automatically, and respond to new business initiatives quickly.
