What is IT Infrastructure?
IT Infrastructure comprises all of the hardware, software, networks, facilities, etc. that are required for your information technology systems to run. A company’s infrastructure can range in scope from a few simple network components to fully operational data centers comprising of redundant servers, storage devices, switches, cooling systems and generators.
Who Needs an IT Infrastructure?
At least some IT infrastructure components are required in any situation. For some companies, simple network connectivity and a router are sufficient. They outsource the rest of their systems and rely on other vendors to operate the infrastructure and applications. Other companies choose to build and operate their own IT infrastructure. They purchase the hardware and software, install it, and administer it.
