Often a departmental business manager submits a request to the
IT organization for a new server to host a critical business-intelligence
application. The request itself is unremarkable; after all, it is common for a
business unit to ask IT to deploy additional hardware infrastructure to
support their application requirements.


However the company may have multiple similar requests in queue,
and all include a request for storage arrays dedicated to the applications being
added. All too often, it’s a common reaction to request dedicated servers and
storage for new applications. And some CIOs and IT departments accommodated such
requests to a fault. However, at times, this addition of processing and storage
capacity occurs without adequate understanding of whether there may be
unused capacity available. It also fails to recognize that each new addition of
servers and storage adds to the complexity of the IT
infrastructure.
