#AutomicLiveNairobi: Business automation for digital transformation

The age of digital transformation is here and business automation is the answer that enables the business value you demand.

Leveraging on IT to make a difference to outpace competition, to respond to the changing world where mobile is very important, where Big Data and the Internet of Things are very important, the business should understand that which is driving the transformation.

Currently each wants to make sure their customers are satisfied with 55% allocated to understanding the evolving customer behaviour and preference, 53% of what growth opportunities are available, according to a presentation by Automic.

“Everybody wants to go faster, be like Facebook, have those quick changes and that is agility and this is where automation comes along. Automation allows you to go faster as it is predictable and reliable,” said Mr. Nabil Ben Abdallah, Vice President, Automic for Middle East and Turkey during the Automic Live Nairobi event at the The Fairmont, Norfolk, Nairobi, Kenya.

The presentation further added that 49% increased competitive pressure and 42% in the new standards in regulatory and compliance are the driving factors of transformation. The company also stated that in today’s enterprise environment, a Disaster Recovery plan is not a luxury- it is an integral part of the Business Continuity Strategy.

In planning for disaster recovery, the organization must consider the costs and the complexity of bringing a whole stack of its critical applications back online. If not done properly in the correct order, or if mistakes are made during recovery due to lack of proper testing or documentation of the process, small outages could become true disasters.
