The challenge: handling IT growth.
By the time the need for a scalable IT infrastructure becomes apparent, scaling it up or down to accommodate changes in your business may, for a number of reasons, be nearly impossible. In order for your IT services to respond to your changing needs, a solid plan for growth includes improving IT performance, deploying scalable and redundant IT infrastructure and the capacity to launch new products.

What you need to know:
- Small businesses, especially start-ups, may encounter significant growth pains when delivering new IT services. Canned solutions that may have once served your needs later get replaced with custom solutions. Over time, your IT infrastructure can become fragmented and difficult to manage, with vendor lock-in preventing the deployment of superior solutions and service reliability beginning to falter. The lack of a standardized, scalable infrastructure can literally bring a rapidly growing business to a halt.
- As your IT service grows, its performance can suffer and quickly derail a fast-moving start-up, new web site or IT service. As more users are added, the system slows.
- If your original IT deployment was not built to be scalable, accommodating rapid business growth becomes more difficult and costly. Planning from the outset for scalability or re-deploying a scalable solution can improve your IT service reliability, security and performance, while laying the right foundation for continued growth and change.
- Redundancy and disaster recovery must be considered as your business and customers become increasingly dependent upon web-based or hosted applications. Should a critical web-based service be disrupted for even two days, imagine the potential productivity and revenue losses.
