Enterprise products, solutions & services
In light of the current global health crisis, workers across the world either have to temporarily stop their activities completely or start to work from home. As a result, telecommuting, online collaboration and remote teaching have become pervasive.
For Enterprise IT departments, the sudden surge in online activities has brought about a sharp rise in requirements for IT resources, as well as for IT infrastructure expansion and operation.
These requirements are at odds with the decline in available engineering manpower and capabilities due to the various restrictions, making this a big challenge for Enterprise IT departments. Here are some examples of the difficulties they are facing:
1. IT Resource Requirements: Without the availability of the IT infrastructure, remote online working is impossible. Efficient remote working depends on the bandwidth and VPN gateway performance, and online conferencing services rely on servers and storage.
2. Construction and Operation Requirements: Incremental IT infrastructure resources such as storage and servers are the result of new or expanded projects, which normally requires onsite engineers to execute and finish these projects.
3. Reduced Manpower and Capabilities: Due to various restrictions, engineers are often unable to travel onsite, or spare parts cannot be delivered to the site quickly. This will impact the implementation or expansion of IT resources and operational activities will also be impacted.
