Common Customer Problems
Landscape Discovery
In today's enterprise infrastructures, a common concern is understanding the network topology, including information system servers, users, communication paths and information flows. Within this, organizations must assess the role of their legacy systems, and migration strategies. Plans must include the constraints of communications infrastructures.
Dealing with Change
Change is a core part of the internet. It was designed with an open architecture including layers of services. Applications are built upon these layers, and as new capabilities and new service offerings are utilized, it is a continuing challenge to maintain compatibility between the old and new systems. An interesting paradox during these changes has been the role of the Data Center. Once regarded as out-dated in the world of distributed computing, Data Centers have returned to new relevance in the world of Web Services.
Controlling Access
The fundamental security requirement is controlling access to information, assuring that the right information is available only to the intended users. Sharing information with partners and customers across shared infrastructures involves special challenges, beginning with starting with the correct solution concept and architecture. Often information system must provide secured services to external users, and with methods that do not compromise the organizational intranets.
Scalability
Implementing security across a large enterprise is a special challenge, since it involves issues of scalability. An inefficient solution concept can be forced to work in a small environment, but will typically fail when attempted on the scale of most enterprises. Typical challenges include supporting required user services, and maintaining cost-effective operations.
