Is the choice of its IT infrastructure decisive for your organization?

How to choose your IT infrastructure? When it has been chosen according to technological developments or announcements, the IT infrastructure can become a very heterogeneous complex: a database here, an application there, an integration that is never completed... All of which adds to the workload of the business. And, to top it all off, it can make you more vulnerable to cyber attacks. But is it really so important to rethink the choice of IT infrastructure? Yes, because an aging infrastructure is the opposite of the agility and flexibility that will prepare the company for tomorrow's world. But there's no moralizing here. Instead, let's look at the elements to take into account and the existing solutions to know why and how to migrate your IT infrastructure. A good choice of IT infrastructure integrates resources, environments and strategy The human factor remains at the heart of the decision The first thing to look at is your team. What skills does it have? What are the upcoming recruitments? What is the team's level of maturity? If it relies on its internal resources, the IT department must adapt its choices. However, the company can reach its objective more quickly [...]

Automating my infrastructure: is it worth it?

How can we meet the ever-increasing infrastructure provisioning needs of an increasingly connected and demanding world? Is infrastructure automation a viable solution to meet these needs? In an increasingly open world where services are available to consumers globally from mobile applications or via the web and continuously, any downtime or slowdown is no longer accepted and tolerated by users. Applications are more and more demanding in terms of infrastructure resources due to the fact that application loads are constantly adapted or because new applications or new functionalities have to be implemented in order to offer new services to its users or consumers. Is automating your infrastructure worth it? Automation: an essential step for large companies Large groups are defined by complex situations: The volume of data is expressed in Terabytes or Petabytes; Technology is directly integrated with support functions such as financial management or human resources; Employees are counted in the hundreds, as are their needs. For them, it is impossible to consider the [...]

Infrastructure automation: 5 key trends CIOs are watching

More than 90% of companies will work with an automation architect by 2025, compared to less than 20% today, according to Gartner. The stakes of infrastructure automation are high for I&O (Infrastructure & Operations) teams. Indeed, more and more organizations, such as large corporations and small and medium-sized companies, are using infrastructure automation based on artificial intelligence (AI or Infrastructure Automation) and machine learning. The advantages are obvious: tasks previously performed manually (installation, configuration, maintenance of the infrastructure) can now be performed by software. This not only saves time, but also reduces errors. It is therefore normal that IT departments are interested in this and are starting to implement such solutions in the information system. It is a question at the heart of the competitiveness of companies. Gartner even popularizes the term hyperautomation, a notion that encompasses the whole trend around automating the entire organization, beyond the IT infrastructure. When it comes to IT infrastructure, there are several ways to implement an automation strategy. The Gartner study highlights the ones that inspire "the most confidence": VMware [...]

Cybersecurity: 3 types of cyberattacks your company is exposed to

Cyber attacks are no longer epiphenomena: 4 out of 5 companies claim to have already been victims of cyber attacks. One might also think that cybersecurity issues only concern very large companies. That's not true: in 2019, the average size of organizations victimized by ransomware was 645 employees. Regardless of the size of your organization, cybersecurity is a topic to be taken very seriously as crime is increasing and the consequences of attacks can be catastrophic. "The banking industry is the most exposed sector to cyberattacks: +238% of attacks worldwide since the start of the pandemic between February and April 2020." Source: research firm VMware Carbon Black There are many types of cyberattacks in business. Some are well known, others are more confidential and therefore more devious. Here are the main ones in this article. Malware: Public Enemy No. 1 Malware is by far the most common cyberattack within organizations. In 2020, the cybersecurity company AV Test GmbH counted more than one billion pieces of malware worldwide: The most frequent types of malware in [...]

AI and Cloud : the winning combo of tomorrow's companies

The companies of the future are those that will grasp and master the challenges of Cloud and AI. Until now, the combination of artificial intelligence with the technologies of Cloud was reserved for very large companies. However, more and more Cloud providers are enabling the deployment of AI projects adapted to the size and maturity of their customers. At the same time, these two markets are experiencing unprecedented growth: by 2025, the global AI market is expected to reach $60 billion and the Cloud market $1,250 billion (source: Bilan). This expected growth can be explained in particular by the democratization of Cloud "as-a-Service". The trend is therefore clear: AI projects within Cloud architectures are becoming more and more popular, and if your organization has not yet established a project in this direction, it is high time to think about the added value that AI could bring to your Cloud. The Cloud and AI "at the service" of data Data-driven projects are not a fad but an obligation for any organization that wants to survive. Data exploitation is becoming the solution to everything: it allows better management, more effective [...].

Become data driven to build the future of your company

Big Data, Open Data, Smart Data... Data used for marketing, customer relationship or user experience purposes is also a formidable lever for business growth. Collected and analyzed with care, it allows any structure to grow its market. As long as all departments are involved and given the keys to reading them. Understand what is behind the expression "Data Driven" and take advantage of the advice to transform your company. The data era, an opportunity to become Data Driven To become a "data driven" company, you must already understand what the model is. A Data Driven structure relies on a set of data to make strategic decisions. In concrete terms, this iterative approach implies that during each business cycle, the organization collects and analyzes data to improve its actions during the next cycle. The underlying idea is not to acquire new analytical processes or state-of-the-art tools. By becoming Data Driven, the company shifts from an investment in technology to a managerial change. All employees, from HR to marketing, finance and top management, work with the same desire to use data in the most natural way possible. [...]

Cloud as a service: The rise of the model

Increasingly common, the Cloud "As a Service" model is gradually overtaking in-house or older solutions. Service providers Cloud now offer storage services, virtual machines, platforms and software that can be accessed directly online. Cost control, delegated maintenance and upgrades, secure storage... The benefits are numerous. Dive into the new phenomenon of services Cloud. The Cloud "As a Service" model as a lever for digital transformation The As a Service model concerns all products and services offered by a provider and accessible via an Internet browser. As a Service solutions are monetized through a subscription system. The model applies to several services: IaaS, PaaS, SaaS, DaaS... In order to make their services work, providers use online storage spaces, based on the Cloud computing system. To understand how it works, you need to know that Cloud computing is the architectural model that implies that the services run on Cloud and the as a service model is the monetization model.

Extended reality: an opportunity for the industry

Extended reality, a combination of virtual and augmented reality, continues its rise in the industrial world. Extended reality offers many benefits: better understanding of industrial processes and workstation ergonomics, decision support, time and productivity savings and improved profitability. Extended reality has 2 major applications: Testing: via virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), manufacturers can check the commissioning of a machine (real or mocked-up) in their laboratory or on a construction site. Simulation: by placing a virtual object around an existing part, manufacturers detect compatibility between machines and select the most appropriate purchase. Definition of extended reality Extended reality, or mixed reality, includes virtual reality and augmented reality. Mixed reality starts from the real world: on a smartphone screen or via glasses like Microsoft Hololens, the user sees his environment. Models or animations appear on top of the real world. They display either an object or information. These virtual elements are able to interact with the real world [...]
