The enterprise infrastructure comprises the physical server, networking, storage, security, data protection and system management, typically operated and maintained in the local data centres. This IT infrastructure operates business and office applications such as ERP, CRM, messaging, collaboration services, etc.

​

The fast-changing and digital economy have forced enterprises to re-think their IT strategy; to stay in the competition and maintain customer loyalty, enterprise IT needs to constantly innovate and accelerate the application delivery to support dynamic business initiatives. The on-prem enterprise IT infrastructure has challenging to adapt to such a situation; infrastructure sprawl and rigid and constrained IT resources (i.e. compute, storage, network and IT skill set) lead to an inability to provide the resources, handle complex underlying business and technical dependencies, security compliance and many more.

​

On another side, the cloud offers flexible, scalable, secured compute resources with a high standard of service level for enterprise consideration, with almost every IT component “as-a-service”; hardware (server, storage, networking), platform (operating system, databases) and software (ready-to-use software) as a service for enterprise to subscribe and use straight away, as a result;  enterprise no longer restrained by the physical on-prem challenges, When an enterprise need to deliver faster application services, the dev/ops play an essential process to enable this, that means automating almost every aspect of application development, from code building, testing, roll-out to production, automated infrastructure provisioning, system monitoring and backing up the data.

​

Enterprises should adopt the cloud as an expansion strategy from existing on-prem IT infrastructure; TARCH’s enterprise IT solutions offer a hybrid approach that allows customers to maintain the balance between on-prem and cloud; this will enable enterprises to maximize on cloud infrastructure service and remain high-security standard and compliance without compromising agility.
