As organizations digitally transform, their IT estates expand dramatically: legacy and on-premise systems, virtual machines, cloud resources, containers, and sprawling open source inventories. The pace of change has increased beyond recognition, with daily deployments and containers dynamically spinning up and down. Traditional mechanisms – outdated CMDBs, sluggish inventory processes, and spreadsheets – are completely insufficient. And yet, as the daily drumbeat of data breaches shows, the perils of inaction are grave.
Fortunately, new technologies and approaches are arriving in the nick of time.
Join guest analyst, Forrester’s Charlie Betz and Flexera’s Kevin Miller as they tackle the problem of "data management for IT management." This webinar will cover:
- How IT and digital management, like any other business areas, have legitimate data needs
- The importance of data quality and governance for technology management
- How new trends to cloud-native and DevOps challenge traditional solutions, but do not eliminate the technology management data problem
- The importance of up-to-date market reference data
- A comprehensive framework for integrating disparate data sources across the modern digital organization
