1:30pm-2:30pm: The Connected Business and its Journey to Business Alignment

Mike Ostrowski, System Engineer, NetBrain Technology

For decades, connected businesses have grown and matured to the point that when the network stops or degrades, so does the connected business. And in the current state of global conditions, it is no longer possible to simply hire additional resources to support these complex networks to keep them fully operational. The great attrition has caused a highly competitive environment for IT professionals, so at some point IT leaders need to take a long hard look at changing the operational paradigm. We need smarter ways to applying existing knowledge to more problems, and doing so with less human intervention. Networks need to be tightly aligned with the changing business, transitioning from brute-force reactive processes to planned and standard operating procedures. And each organization is at a different place in their journey to adopt a smarter way of approaching business alignments, so we’ll discuss the automation maturity model and how knowing where you are today will help you set your sights on your own future.
