The Complexity Challenge: How to Sustainably Scale Your Infrastructure - ERP Spain.com - España y América Latina

A key goal of business is to grow successfully, but expansion creates new challenges. The companies thriving today are the ones that are able to prioritize key digital features like IoT and Edge Computing, but these require greater technical support and a more complex infrastructure. Existing legacy networks are not designed to support these new technologies and can crumble under the pressure. Organizations need to invest in their digital transformation if they want to stay competitive — and must choose their providers wisely. Partnering with the wrong third party can overcomplicate operations and leave the company bogged down in bureaucracy, instead of scaling up. This doesn’t need to be the case. With the right support, companies can design, implement and maintain a complex yet scalable architecture that meets greater demands. Rather than just tacking on new applications, the right third-party partner will aid in consolidation; by streamlining and outsourcing in appropriate places, companies can redirect their resources where they’ll generate the most impact. When an organization can break down the complexities of the back-end and take advantage of automation, the real growth can begin. In this final installment of NS1’s series, “Breaking Down the Barriers to Successful Digital Innovation,” our expert panel will identify the biggest threats of infrastructure complexity — and offer practical solutions for scaling.
