Business is changing today at a fantastic pace. Today's novelty is tomorrow's necessity. Given such a situation, businesses need to adapt quickly to changing market dynamics and customer needs and provide newer, innovative services and products on a regular basis.
But businesses need to first introduce changes to their existing IT landscape in order to be able to enable such as business changes. For e.g. a bank, that wants to provide innovative business services such as ATM locators for it's customers over mobile networks needs to integrate and communicate with a variety of technology platforms, both at the business partner level and with their own organization.
But building such complex solutions, that involve such a variety of technologies, platforms and standards, cannot be handled by the in-house IT Infrastructure group of most enterprises.
