Designed for Run™
Designed for Run™ – Reducing Your Total Cost of Ownership
When planning for a development project, most of the effort is spent looking at the build phase. However, this is only a small portion of the total cost structure. Today's architectures demand such things as robust testing environments that mimic production and 24 hour operations with no downtime. At EDS we design applications to run and consider all costs of a fully functional application upfront before the implementation begins. As we move into the world of Service Oriented Architecture, this will become even more critical. The costs of a SOA implementation can be off the charts if it isn't “Designed for Run™.” Enterprises need people that understand networks, infrastructure, server utilization, virtualization of service, etc. If one piece of the architecture is not functional, the entire process or business operation will be impacted.
