Optimize existing I.T. and grow your organization
How do you optimize your I.T.?
You've invested heavily in your infrastructure, your apps, and your processes. But as IT advances, you can't simply abandon these investments and adopt shiny, new platforms or technologies. IT optimization is about taking your existing resources, modernizing where you can, and reducing the time and money you spend maintaining them. This newfound efficiency means you can try new things that will be the future of your business while keeping everything running today.
Innovation = necessity
Infrastructure is the foundation of your business— it makes everything work. And it requires a significant investment to change. What happens when you see demand from your customers that goes beyond your abilities?
You can’t afford to fall behind while your competitors innovate around you. According to Gartner’s 2016 IT spending research, 70% of budgets are spent maintaining the systems that keep the business running.1

Get the most out of your investment
Optimizing your existing IT gets more out of what you already have while allowing you to plan for the future. With a new and updated environment, your business can move faster and realize new benefits and ways of working. An incremental approach is easier on the budget, while still freeing up resources that can help you meet today's IT challenges.
Faster service delivery
UAE Exchange's IT infrastructure couldn't keep up with demand. They standardized on a stable, scalable platform without disrupting service to tens of thousands of customers.
New or updated environments
BSE traded their proprietary solution from 1995 for an open one. They saw a 1,000% faster response times and reduced their cost of ownership by 90%.
Self-service
eww ITandTEL improved and expanded its cloud-based services with an automated, scalable Platform-as-a-Service. This allowed efficient delivery of customer cloud environments.
Getting started
6 ways you can create opportunity through optimization
Today's infrastructure platforms must be integrated, usable, and consistent across any architecture. They must also be amenable to any process. This is how (and why) many enterprises use Linux.
Consolidating or migrating workloads to an open source virtualization solution helps you unify management and create a standardized platform. This, in turn, gives you more time to answer some of your other demands.
Disparate data resources can be consolidated into an optimized, consistent software-defined source that is distributed, flexible, and highly scalable.
As you look at modernizing legacy systems, updating existing rules and workflows–or creating new ones–can help you automate more, reduce manual errors, and improve your overall efficiency.
If you can rearchitect or refresh apps to be microservice-based or modular, the components can be placed independently in containers. This approach means IT no longer needs downtime to update apps. And you gain much-needed interoperability.
Compliance isn't a nice-to-have, it's a necessity. As you modernize your software with new rules and processes, you'll be able to make compliance an integral part of your practices.

Never stop learning
See how technologies and trends all work together to help you modernize your infrastructure.
Containers
Containers let you package and isolate applications. But what do they have to do with Linux®? And how can you use popular technologies from Docker and Kubernetes?
Infrastructure
Your IT infrastructure is a collection of different, disparate server, storage, and network resource. How can you integrate across environments? Begin with software-, infrastructure-, and platform-as-a-service solutions.
OpenStack
OpenStack brings together multiple open source projects and tools for building and managing computing platforms for public and private clouds.
