IT Infrastructure

Capability Building Blocks

D1Server / Mainframe / High Performance Computing
Develop and implement approaches and policies for the life cycle management of the compute infrastructure, including memory.
D2Storage
Develop and implement approaches and policies for the life cycle management of storage — including, for example, disk drives, solid state disks, storage-as-a-service, and so on.
D3Connectivity / Network
Develop and implement approaches and policies for the life cycle management of wide area networks (WAN), local area networks (LAN), and software defined networks (SDN), to include, for example, routers, firewalls, Wi-Fi, interconnect (e.g. InfiBand), and so on.
D4Device Management
Implement approaches and policies for the life cycle management of devices — including, for example, end-user-devices, printers, audio visual devices, IoT devices, and so on.
D5Fabric and Data Centre
Manage the underlying fabric and infrastructure to include uninterrupted power supply (UPS), power, cooling, and so on.
D6Software Defined Infrastructure [SDI]
Develop and implement approaches and policies so that the IT infrastructure can be fully deployed and controlled by an application/code (this combines composable and converged/hyper-converged infrastructure systems with software-defined networking, storage, and compute, to build and manage the IT infrastructure).
D7IT Infrastructure Outsourcing
Manage the outsourcing of IT infrastructure component(s) to a cloud or externally managed and hosted environment.
