Home > Blog > Why assessing your infrastructure is important for your long-term growth?

The future of your organisation depends on the IT infrastructure you employ to manage and streamline your business. That said, it is vital to have a clear idaea of your current infrastructure capabilities and your goals. Assessing your IT infrastructure you already have will enable you to measure your IT capabilities and plan for the advancements.

Gathering workload characteristics and performance detail is a Big Data problem that most IT departments avoid due to complexity or resources. This often results in overdesign, overspend, and frustration in support, expansion, or purchasing cycle. Constor Solutions’ Infrastructure Assessment Service puts this information at your fingertips.

Visually explore workload performance

Assessing your IT infrastructure will provide you with a clear picture of your IT environment, and this involves gathering configuration and performance data from Servers, Storage and Data Protection. Gathering and documenting complex workload data will give you insights about the scenarios of combined workloads. Once you come to know this, you will be able to decide what you need to meet future business needs. IT infrastructure must involve the following processes:

Virtualisation and Host Optics

Virtualisation and Host optics are a vendor, hardware, and platform-agnostic standard for IT professionals to record and communicate their achieved benchmarks, workloads, or support concerns with others; to accelerate decision time and reduce risk.

File Optics

File Optics allows for rapid characterisation of unstructured data and provides visual insights into what is driving data growth in your organisation.

SAN Optics

SAN Optics are used to conduct health assessments on your Storage Area Networks.

Storage Optics

Storage Optics are vendor-specific hardware profiling for storage arrays or data protection software/hardware, that includes both configuration and in-depth performance insight.

Live Optics^™

Live Optics™ impartially documents server/storage configuration and performance, as well as observing file characteristics of data. By doing so, your performance gets enhanced and it becomes much easier for you to record and communicate your performance fingerprint.
Needs vary, when it comes to IT infrastructure. Whether you are improving your capabilities or protecting your data or moving to the cloud, assessing your IT infrastructure will give you a clear vision of what you need to prepare for the future.
