How Are IT Infrastructures Managed?

IT infrastructure management refers to the coordination of IT resources, systems, platforms, people, and environments. Here are some examples of it:

• OS management – Oversees environments running the same OS by providing content, patch, provisioning, and subscription management.
• Cloud management – Gives cloud admins control over everything running in a cloud—end users, data, applications, and services—by managing resource deployments, use, integration, and disaster recovery.
• Visualization management – Interfaces with virtual environments and the underlying physical hardware to simplify resource administration, enhance data analyses, and streamline operations.
• IT operations management – Also known as business process management, this is the practice of modeling, analyzing, and optimizing business processes that are often repeated, ongoing, or predictable.
