At times when much of the Information Technologyis no longer situated onSite in their own buildings, but offSite hosted in the cloud, new challenges arise for many companies.
Besides classical topics of IT Security, in addition, there are often questions about the connection of various cloud services suchSAP Hana or Microsoft Azure. For such cases specialized Cloud Architectsare very helpful.

And even in times after the Covid-19 corona virus, the requirements for working remotely or working from the home office have increased so much that Unified Communications Engineersand Network Streaming Engineersexperience a boom as specialists for the operation of solutions such as gotoMeeting, Skype, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, etc.

We know that most adoleo customers do not yet differentiate between Network & Infrastructure areas likeIT-Infrastructure. Nevertheless, we recommend this and a quick look at the background also quickly shows why this is a good idea:
While at theC level theChief Information Officer (CIO) still is popular and often responsible for the whole Information Technology, Network & Infrastructure is mostly subordinate and managed by a Chief Technology Officer (CTO ) which does not always do justice to the area.

While the termIT Infrastructureclassically describes a collection of services, products, platforms, and tools and thus actually the “Best of Breed” of everyITthe term “Network & Infrastructure” is much more specific.
Most of the time, the definition of “networks & infrastructure” really only includes those areas that are necessary to connect the individual IT infrastructure components as well as users and IT Administrators.
In fact, the Network & Infrastructure division is within the Information Technology often the most important area. Because without that infrastructure, nothing would be accessible.

Due to the increasing shift of services to the cloud thanks to experts like SAP Hana Specialists, Cloud Architects or IT Architects, on the other hand new challenges for IT Security Officers or at C level the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) arise in terms of securing these services.
The majority of IT-security–efforts are already being made today to secure networks. Like this, Network Administratorsas well as Network Engineers are sensitized to avoid man-in-the-middle attacks via routers, switches, and access points, which have become part of the network, as it has become natural for many users to use virus scanners on their workstations.

Typical challenges for the Network & Infrastructure area include load balancing and traffic management of local area networks (LAN) in the company, as well as virtual private networks (VPN).
It also includes sorting out so-called “duplicate data” (not to be confused with data engineering). This often accounts for up to 60% of traffic in networks, which unnecessarily clogs and slows them down.
Another important aspect in the area of Network & Infrastructure is the regular, software-supported monitoring of data packets, the “deep packet inspection”. This makes it possible to filter malicious or unnecessary traffic out of the network before it reaches its destination. Likewise in the area Data & Business Intelligencethis aspect is particularly important, for example, to recognize and stop the outflow of large amounts of data outside of the company in good time, e.g. if a Business intelligence environment was compromised.
