What is a company's IT infrastructure?

 The IT infrastructure includes all the necessary resources to guarantee the execution of the IT processes. When planning it, you should consider hardware, software and applications, operating systems, data management and storage, communication and network platforms, integrated services and internet platforms.


In order for operations and processes to take place efficiently, with standard and continuity, it is also necessary to consider the documentation and human resources necessary to meet the demands of the company.


In this way, your company starts to rely not only on isolated elements of technology. A planned and strategic infrastructure adds agility, security and trust to the business processes.


How important is a good IT infrastructure project?

In small businesses, it is common to make the mistake of neglecting IT infrastructure planning, adding last-minute resources as demand increases.


The problem with adopting this mindset is that investments are usually made in a hurry. Costs are higher, resources are wasted and the lack of integration of devices creates obstacles to routine activities, spending more time in the processes.

There are good and bad ways to do this migration to the cloud. Many of the pitfalls are not exactly new. At a Gartner meeting in 2019, for example, two IT managers said their Office 365 deployments were halted due to the need to update legacy equipment. The way we now use - and share - our home computers has changed. Our PCs are no longer personal. That same computer can support your child's virtual school and your spouse's applications as well. A survey conducted in mid-June 2020 by CyberArk found that more than half of the respondents saved their passwords in the browsers of their corporate PCs.
