Virtual Briefing: Build Resilience and Tackle Aging, Incompatible Infrastructure Systems

Digital business demands resilient, adaptable infrastructure. However, aging and incompatible infrastructure systems increase technical debt and prevent infrastructure and operations (I&O) leaders from meeting this requirement. Managing infrastructure technical debt is a perennial challenge for I&O leaders, and has been cited as the most frequent top challenge in the last three annual ‘Gartner I&O Signature Role’ surveys. Resilience is a key priority for I&O and its strategies apply to people and technology. How can I&O leaders reduce existing infrastructure technical debt and minimize future debt as organizations progress on their cloud journeys?

In this exclusive, invitation-only virtual briefing, Gartner Vice President Analyst Mark Margevicius will explore technical debt as the enemy of resilience, how to tackle debt and drive a more successful infrastructure strategy. This insight will enable you to lead your I&O function into the future and make you efficient, effective and optimally aligned to your customer and CIO’s goals. We will also prepare I&O teams to collaborate effectively with the CIO and across I&O leadership by leveraging resilience in their platform strategy and execution to address aging and incompatible infrastructure systems. You will hear examples from former I&O leaders, now Gartner Executive Partners to inspire how you can use resilience in your platform strategy to tackle technical debt. They will share success stories and what it takes to get you and your team there, too. Plus, you will walk away from this session with answers to your vital questions and recommended actions to help you achieve your goals.
