Understanding your infrastructure
In today's digital networked economy, organisations are increasingly dependent on IT to deliver their strategic business objectives – whether to increase sales, maximise operational efficiency, reduce operational risk, or improve workforce productivity. Poor application performance can severely impact your bottom line, and divert resources from exploiting new business opportunities.
BT Applications Assured Infrastructure (AAI) is designed to enable multi-site organisations to gain a greater understanding of the complex interactions that occur within your infrastructure – from desktop to data centre. As a result, you can be confident that the performance of your networked IT is tailored to support your business priorities and processes, improving operational efficiency.
Planning with confidence
BT Applications Assured Infrastructure (AAI) is a suite of managed services that provides end-to-end visibility and control of processes across your enterprise IT infrastructure. AAI enables you to gain optimum performance from your business applications across your organisation, delivering insight into what’s happening on your network and helping you to identify and resolve application performance problems. By preparing your infrastructure for convergence and the roll-out of new applications, AAI enables you to plan for future growth with confidence. IT resources can be focused away from tactical to strategic higher value activities, boosting your productivity by aligning resources to operational needs.
Diagnose and solve your IT problems
AAI is already delivering tangible business benefits to some 130 customers worldwide across a range of sectors. It has helped some of the world’s largest retail banks with bank branch transformation, de-risking the roll-out of new applications. One major European financial institution has reduced its IT and networking costs by over €7 million a year thanks to AAI.
It has enabled global pharmaceutical companies to improve their supply chain management and roll-out SAP and helped companies in the oil and gas sector to tackle the challenge of server consolidation. And when one large UK retailer was losing an estimated €150,000 per hour as a result of POS application failure affecting up to 60 stores, AAI located the problem within minutes.
