Optimizing infrastructure costs is one of the key tasks faced by IT departments today. Competent assessment of the total cost of ownership (TCO), the careful selection of services and payment model (CAPEX or OPEX), and the ability to calculate and manage ROI — these are labor-intensive but essential components in keeping costs low.
