The Right eBusiness Infrastructure Helps Insure a Company’s Success

June 20, 2007; 12:13 AM

To compete in today's fast-paced Global world, all businesses must have the right eBusiness infrastructure to ensure success. Companies need to ensure their business-critical networks, systems, and applications are available anytime/anywhere. eBusiness is a new realm of IT demand, a new avenue of productivity in today's fast growing modularized distributed network environment. No matter how many or how complex the business processes may be, to compete effectively, businesses must keep ALL their data, applications, and networks available (and accessible) for their customers, employees, partners, suppliers, (and even investors) at all times.

eBusiness infrastructure is defined as "The collection of platforms, networks, products, applications, and databases and the business rules governing the flow of data and work among them, both internally and to external systems. Integration into cohesive systems is achieved with vendor-supported customization, pre-built adapters and gateways, and program to program interoperation technology such as XML, Web services, distributed object protocols, and cross platform development tools and languages.” Now, that is a mouthful, but it highlights the importance of only hiring, or outsourcing, to those that are experienced in building customized ebusiness solutions.

In the Internet-driven global economy, winners are those who ensure their businesses and the data driving it are ubiquitously accessible. It bears repeating that it is imperative that your development team has the experience to design, develop, implement, and support eBusiness infrastructures that combine data, voice, and video, utilizing the latest and the greatest hardware and software technology in diverse operating environments. Whether your focus is local, national, or even if the world is your playing field, by utilizing the web, you can build and support the right infrastructure to alleviate the IT complexity that surrounds your business.

Constructing an e-business IT infrastructure that performs safely and reliably, 24 x 7, requires a multifaceted knowledge of the performance capability, load balancing, security concerns and ever-changing Web-based technologies that are available today.
Jupiter Communications reports that because of poor performance, 46 percent of Web customers surveyed have left a site that they otherwise preferred, and 24 percent returned only after establishing a relationship with a competing company.
For example, John Barbour, CEO of Toysrus.com commented on the challenges of competing in an e-business environment. “We learned that you need to have a very robust infrastructure to handle this business and the scale of it. One of the things people don't realize is that most of these Internet businesses, including ourselves, have to grow infrastructure at a dramatic rate. Companies are increasing tenfold within a space of a year, two years. And that's incredibly tough to manage, no matter who you are,” said Barbour.
With web expansion and usage continuing to exceed expectations, the most problematic hurdle can oftentimes be sustaining an architecture that will scale as quickly as your business grows. Sustaining an e-business infrastructure…..be if for disseminating your company’s information, or as an e-commerce Web business, where you sell products of services, requires managing your infrastructure expansion on a constant basis to insure your are meeting your visitors expectations. In some instances, you may even need to consider a total technology redesign of your web site. Today, anyone who wants to sell product or services must have a complete e-infrastructure that will keep pace with business growth, deliver new features to end users and support new product offerings.
