Overview:
Infrastructure and operations (I&O) comprise 60% or more of total IT spending worldwide. This fact puts I&O leaders under unrelenting pressure to reduce costs. Enterprises sometimes mandate cost reduction targets in what seems to be a sign of these challenging economic times. It is also imperative to know when to stop cost cutting.

In 2009, Gartner has made cost optimization a major focal point for their I&O analysis. They’ve published more than 80 reports on this subject to date. This research note summarizes actions Gartner has deemed to have the most impact in terms of I&O cost reduction -- both in the short term and in the long term.
