I know that this is not necessarily the question but it is something I would like to discuss. I came across this report detailing out the following:”Robust Systems are Built from the Bottom Up”
…Information technology infrastructure takes a backseat to applications investments for lack of a cost justification method. However, the infrastructure systems are breaking down in public; bringing significant attention to an issue that has been set aside far too long.
It is quite the thought provoking report. Enjoy, oh fyi, I had to register but it was free.Cheers. Matt
