		Despite all the talk about business change and collaboration, in many organizations “silo mentality” continues to constrain business units, development teams, and operations teams. This “silo mentality” can drive up costs through application redundancy, idle capacity, and competing architectures. Lack of integration between tools, processes, and infrastructure contributes to organizations spending an increasing percentage (70-80%) of their IT budgets just “keeping the lights on.” A new approach is needed, that shifts resources from maintenance to innovation, with strategic initiatives such as modernization, mobile, cloud, and continuous integration.
