Tech refresh is the cycle of regularly updating key elements of your IT infrastructure to maximise system performance.
Instead of using systems until they can no longer function, many companies choose to upgrade or replace certain infrastructure on a regular schedule. This process is often referred to as "tech refresh."
Maintaining legacy infrastructure can be costly. Outdated data centre technology leads to lagging performance and service delivery, inefficiencies in energy and space consumption, and bloated administrative overhead. Meanwhile, the costs of maintaining your aging IT assets and risks of a failure grow, adding to your concerns and budget challenges.
Purchasing new IT and upgrading it in three or four years can be financially daunting for most organisations. Typically, such purchases must be depreciated over a period of five to seven years. Upgrading sooner can lead to budget penalties and is usually discouraged by your finance organisation.
HPE's technology refresh programme replaces ownership with predictable monthly or quarterly payments and provides for a shorter, routine refresh cycle every 24 to 48 months. You can keep your finance department happy, maintain control over your IT and better meet the demands of the rest of the enterprise.
