Every single man on this earth is curious about the future about ones own and also of the world. Some are even afraid of the future. Perhaps it is the uncertainty if events which intrigues us all. One thing is for certain; everything changes. The geniuses of past centuries imagined the changes which reality now. We have technology at our disposal to ease and compete in the ever changing world. The 21st century ushered in the age of IT revolution and today IT is the backbone of business the world over. The boundaries of the world are fast shrinking and the business is no longer a slave of the continental divide. The future definitely needs a strengthened IT environment and IT automation will become the common business language for endless connectivity.
The need to automate systems within a system is required for smoother transactions. Even today, minute processes require manual intervention; they are still dependant on the reaction-time of the person in-charge. A system never goes wrong with calculations and processes them faster than our eye blinks. The shift in our financial markets and the linked profits depend on quick responses and constant data-tracking. Profitable mergers and acquisitions require the same timeliness and precision. IT automation is the need of the day. With quick reactions, the business processes shall become more profitable and bankable. Though an initial human effort shall be required, once the requisite data is collected, formulae and history can be quickly and constantly crunched when the systems are in place.
Note that the selected system must also be capable of including any existing information from various platforms such as legacy applications, mainframes and metadata. On top of that an unmatched data flow from other areas such as suppliers and customers has to be maintained. All these are properties of an automated system that is why IT automation is the way to go.
To a layman, the present systems seem helpful and capable enough. We can Google anything in the comfort of our homes. Even at offices, data extraction is fairly fast enough. If seen closely enough, the layman too shall see that real-time information is difficult to gather and has a time-frame after which it is updated. At offices too, one faces this real-time transfer problems that leads to delays in lets say, employee id generation. This delay, as already mentioned, is commonly referred to as update time-frame.
This is where the problem of complexity can outpace the ability of the businesses to keep up. With the improved collection methods, companies have gained more information sources to harness. There is more data that needs to be integrated and more people clamoring for different types of information. With all these apparent challenges it should be clear that remaining static on the current systems is not the way to the future. This is why many IT departments are challenged to react. What with the companies resources being too stretched to adapt fast. Such overworked IT departments only find consolation in shifting most of the burden to existing systems with people offering direction only.
Defining IT automation is not as simple as it may sound. Considerations include checking the prevailing conditions for their data center model in order to define and set the parameters, thereby ensuring expectations will be in line with achievable goals. The outcome? Automation must adapt to varying parameters in different organizations. There is no more cruise control when it comes to business in the new Millennium. Once the perfect automation approach is identified the only remaining function is to identify the components which are best suited for the process. That is, until the parameters change.
