In many organizations, IT infrastructures are fundamentally inefficient. Decades of case-by-case deployments, uncoordinated platform choices and ad hoc upgrades to support growth have created high levels of fragmentation. Capacity is underutilized, quality of service experienced by users is increasingly problematic, and costs and risks are too high.

The IBM Dynamic Infrastructure initiative is designed to meet these challenges. It is a combination of programs, products and services designed to improve service to users, reduce costs and more effectively manage risk across all components of organizational IT infrastructures. It extends across the full range of IBM platforms and places a new focus on applying new technologies to all infrastructure resources.
