IT network support is an
integral part of the business. Information and communication are the
very important in terms of strategic concerns of a business. Every
organization uses a significant number of communication tools and
computers- these also include fax, telephones, handheld devices and
more. Although, a wide array of latest applications are available to
the management, a number of departments lack communication and do not
have easy access to the needed information.
In order to beat the
obstacles the efficient usage of computer networks, information
technology is a must. They are a modern world type or organization of
various computer systems which are produced to integrate computers
and communications.
Correspondingly they are
important means for coverage in two areas- the useless distinction
between processing tools and information storage and collection tools
and information transport can vanish. It is possible to set up
barriers between various computer systems and borderless
communication and information environment can only be established
with the help of computer networks.
Users can get access to
remote programs and databases through computer networks in an
organization or its enterprises and sources. Computer networks can
provider faster communication possibilities as compared to other
facilities. Organizations can increase their learning rate by making
use of optimal information and expanding communication possibilities
and it is an advantage in the competitive market.
Apart from the
fundamental reasons an organization should have a computer network to
avail the following advantages:
- Reduced costs by software and hardware sharing
- Increased reliability due to presence of multiple supply sources
- Cost efficacy due to transition from mainframes to microcomputer based networks
- More flexibility because more devices from different vendors can be connected
Therefore, with increase
in technology and its importance management has to be play a critical
role for understanding technology based need of computer networks.
They must look closely into purchase decisions, operational networks
and structures.
