Gartner Highlights Four Innovation Forces In Information Infrastructure

A strategic approach to managing information is increasingly on the agendas of IT and business leaders as a growth economy re-emerges, according to Gartner, Inc. Gartner analysts have identified a set of key innovation forces that can be exploited by IT leaders to mitigate the challenges they face in managing information.

“These innovation forces provide significant changes in the way that information management technologies and competencies will be focused and delivered, with the goal of radically improving the cost-effectiveness, agility and transparency with which information assets are managed and leveraged,” said Ted Friedman, Vice President and Analyst, Gartner. “Organisations that focus only on tools and technology, without increasing their information management competency or changing their culture, are unable to fully achieve the benefits of information infrastructure.”

The four innovation forces in information infrastructure include:

The information-centric organisation
Innovations with information infrastructure depend on making the organisation itself information-centric and getting both IT and business staff to adopt new behaviours. Gartner believes that CIOs, information management leaders and HR professionals need to understand what kinds of “people” changes must be made to create the next generation of information infrastructure.

Information as an asset or liability
Gartner analysts believe that CIOs and information management leaders must set aside their traditional engineering mind-set. Instead, they must take a new approach by focusing on the value of information itself, rather than the value of information systems. This will require strategies and techniques for assessing the value and risk of information assets.

Adaptive information infrastructure
With adaptive information infrastructure techniques and supporting technologies, the discovery of meaning and relationships across the entire content continuum— from highly structured to loosely structured— can be automatically inferred, and decisions about information delivery can be made at a more abstract level. In addition, techniques of dynamic optimisation will limit the need for hard-coded and static data delivery mechanisms. Gartner maintains that through such approaches, a substantially higher degree of agility in adapting where, how, and in what form and context information is delivered can be achieved.
Alternative delivery models for information infrastructure

New and alternative delivery models in various IT domains such as appliances and cloud computing allow IT organisations to implement new capabilities quickly, with minimal upfront cost. Gartner asserts that these benefits are beginning to be seen in the information infrastructure domain, as more capabilities for persisting, integrating and delivering data and assuring its quality become available via alternative delivery models, ranging from appliances to cloud-based services.
