allow you to focus more on your core differentiators?
The infrastructure and software parts that could be replace with as-a-Service offerings are:
 Computer Storage
 Network Storage
 Message Storage
 IT administrators

2. Are you experiencing integration difficulties from utilizing too many different technologies?
What steps are you taking to assess these difficulties and to standardize your technology
where necessary?
Consider the tradeoff between costs and benefits for such a process.

The integration difficulties that I experienced from utilizing too many different technologies:

 Resistance to change:
Since I already lived well with the old technologies I used.
 Lack of hardware and guidance to use them:
Since the manual words is too long it makes me hard to understand it sometimes.
 Fear of uncertainties:
Due to the integrated system’s complexity, sometimes it makes me hard to utilize it.

My necessary steps to assess these difficulties and to standardize my technology:

 Try to be more adapt by learning more about the different technologies.

 Ask some mentors that know much about technology for helping me understand more.
 Search in Google about the manuals to operate the different Technologies.

The trade-off between costs and benefits for such a process:

Costs Benefits
The amount of time required while learning. Better knowledge of different technologies
The amount of home’s electricity. Improvement in using different technologies
 Course cost that could be high

3. Who in your company or professional network can provide you with broad, unbiased insights
into available technologies?
Consider what industry conferences might be helpful in this.
The person on my company or the professional network can provide you with board, unbiased
insights into available technologies are my lecturers in Binus.
The reasons why are because the lecturers in Binus are competent to teach the available
technologies and in BINUS, the materials could be found either in Binusmaya or in their other
websites.

4. Consider your organization’s growth projections.

How long will it be before the technologies you are using today are either unable to handle
your data needs or become prohibitively expensive for the scale you’ll need to use them at?

The technologies that are used today could be unable to process the future data needs probably
after 5 years or smaller than that.
