Increasing digitization requires changes to the infrastructure to meet the needs of the company and, at the same time, These will also depend on what IT can offer as a tool for higher performance or, at least, to offer the expected services. Y, in this context of high demand, in which the IT plays a strategic role In the organization, innovation and agility they are two great values.
The need to drive agility is key today, emphasizes Gartner, and we can get it as an advantage that will be given to us after a while. necessary reorientation of the data center strategy, that seeks to answer the actual needs of agility and speed.
Combine precision, agility and speed
Of course, without sacrificing precision provided by traditional technological solutions, if the objective is to respond to the new requirements of a digitized world, these should be complemented with a Two-speed IT approach o Bimodal IT, according to the consultant.
The winning bet for IT decision makers, according to Gartner, it is a hybrid framework, that takes advantage of the best of both worlds. Far from considering new technologies disruptive, the perfect solution is to integrate them, seek the balance of an architecture to this that responds to the needs of the organization, conjugating the solutions that they already have with the new practices.
In this sense, that infrastructure must offer solutions that meet current requirements, constantly changing, and precisely for that reason it must meet the commercial expectations of speed and flexibility as a result of more agile performance. Simultaneously, legacy systems can offer a service in operations that is equally essential to the day-to-day business.
A bimodal IT strategy is urgently needed
Definitely, it's about transitioning to two speeds, and of “take it seriously, even if it's complicated”, as recommended by the prestigious American consultancy. What's more, to facilitate its implementation, must be done in a scalable framework, emphasizes.
Gartner encourages companies to start asap the introduction of new technologies and bimodal IT is a way of doing it gradually, starting with small changes and then expanding to the entire company. It is at this point, specific, that scalability allows an adequate implementation that avoids problems derived from poor foresight in this regard.
“You have to do it fast to face current challenges. Bimodal IT involves management in two distinct but consistent modes, one focused on stability and the other on agility “, explica Partha Iyengar, Gartner Vice President and Research Director.
