As Diwali draws near, industries and people alike participate in the ritual of cleaning every nook and cranny, clearing space for positive energy and new beginnings. But there is one area – the digital world – that generally gets left behind. Where a home filled with outdated items creates inefficiencies in its operation, an overburdened IT environment with underutilized systems and inadequate security can hamper business processes and open up vulnerabilities.
This Diwali, Ariel Software Solutions invites you to tap the spirit of the season into transformation by holding a full-scale tech cleanup. It would not only mitigate the risks but would pave the way for the enhancement of operational efficiency and sustained growth.
Why Today's Enterprises Need a Diwali-Inspired Tech Cleanup
In an ever-changing technology landscape, streamlined, secure infrastructure is no longer optional but critical. From optimizing resource allocation to fortifying data security, a systematic approach to tech cleanup has many advantages:
- Cost efficiency: Identify and eliminate the underutilized resources that strain your budget and operational focus.
- Enhanced security: Obsolete systems often hold vulnerabilities that can compromise sensitive data and systems.
- Boosts Productivity: A clutter-free environment improves operational efficiency and reduces downtime, giving teams more time to focus on strategic objectives.
Step 1: Optimize Application Lifecycle and Quality Assurance:
An optimized application lifecycle, paired with rigorous quality assurance, creates a resilient and efficient IT environment. Here’s how Ariel Software Solutions can help:
- Assess Application Relevance: Identify applications that no longer serve your needs, enabling you to retire outdated software and reduce clutter.
- Enhance Quality Assurance: Regularly test application performance to minimize errors, prevent downtime, and ensure a smooth user experience.
- Establish Consistent Update Cycles: Routine updates and testing keep applications secure and efficient, mitigating security risks and improving functionality.
Ariel’s Application Lifecycle and Quality Assurance services ensure your IT environment remains lean, high-performing, and ready for future growth.
Step 2: Data Management and Storage Optimization :
Data is gold, but unmanaged data is poison. Best-in-class data management practices eliminate unnecessary costs and provide necessary information when it is most needed to drive data-oriented decisions.
- Archive Legacy Data: Store data that are infrequently accessed in secure, low-cost archives to decongest primary storage.
- Eliminate Duplicates: Redundant data has the potential to improve both storage efficiency and performance immensely.
- Improve Access to Data: Arrange data structures such that vital information will be accessible to the appropriate persons.
Data Management Solutions by Ariel helps companies optimize storage for data, improve organization, and increase access to a more agile and effective environment for data.
Step 3: Optimizing Network and Cloud Resource Utilization :
Since many increasingly rely on cloud and network resources, optimizing both helps cut latency while making it possible for users to enjoy a seamless experience. Consider these measures:
- Optimize Network Configuration: Remove all unused VPNs along with retired accounts on your network for enhanced network security and reduced loads
- Audit Cloud Services: Leverage the proper and regular auditing of your cloud subscription plan, sizing the size in alignment with your current utilization behavior and not overspending on unwanted usage
- Enhance Available Bandwidth: Upgrade or establish sufficient network bandwidth based on actual requirements in any type of distributed or hybrid working pattern.
Ariel’s Cloud Optimization Services enables customers to align their use of the cloud with the needs of their business, thereby saving money while maximizing performance.
Step 4: Perform an In-Depth Security Audit
In this world of digitalization, the most important thing is to keep your tech infrastructure safe and secure. A security audit is very important in pointing out system vulnerabilities, mainly those overlooked or in outdated places:
- Ensure Software is Current: Updates and patches protect against security breaches and run software at its best efficiency.
- Eliminate Inactive User Accounts: Eliminate duplicate user accounts to reduce vulnerabilities to attacks.
- Review and Strengthen Cybersecurity Controls: Review access control, encryption policy, and multi-factor authentication to strengthen it
Ariel can offer comprehensive cybersecurity services starting from auditing to maintenance with the assurance of having secured your systems for all precious digital assets.
