IT infrastructure

IT infrastructure, also called technology infrastructure, is what enables a company to build and run the applications that underpin its business.
It includes compute, network, workplace, data platform and edge capabilities. Traditional infrastructure primarily concerns hardware, data centers and servers that are manually configured, managed and maintained.
With modern cloud infrastructure, applications and data are accessible from anywhere. Thus, it includes a mix of cloud environments, on-premise data centers and edge computing devices all connected by enterprise networks.
This flexibility requires a dynamic infrastructure engineering discipline that integrates innovation, automation and optimization.
