IT network infrastructure has emerged as the critical communication, collaboration, and information facilitator of the modern enterprise, broadly enabling most business processes, decision making, practices, and innovation initiatives. To deliver these capabilities, the IT organization has evolved its role beyond supporting a collection of servers and software into managing a well-defined and comprehensive suite of equipment, technologies, and services - the modern IT infrastructure. This white paper examines the technology and financial dynamics shaping IT equipment renewal cycles, financing options for funding, and equipment life-cycle management options. IDC examines these issues from a variety of perspectives, including capital financial optimization, technology management, and operational cost containment.
