Applications cause the downtime?
http://www.vnunet.com/vnunet/news/2201249/applications-identified-mainÂÂ
Almost half of all problems encountered in enterprise networks are caused by applications, new research claims.
A study by managed services provider Claranet found that applications are by far the greatest single threat to the resilience or availability of business-critical IT networks.
Up to 47 per cent of problems encountered in developing and maintaining enterprise web systems arise from applications, according to the study.
These kind of things can cause an element of debate the development and infrastructure teams. What’s important as a business is understanding that the application should evolve with your infrastructure, that with every new version of Windows deployed, the application code should be ported not only to benefit from (for example) better memory or processor support, but also to prevent any unexpected issues relating between the interaction of the application and the operating system. An interesting article, do check it out.

Another good study, Martin…keep them coming.
Would agree that applications – and more specifically changes to applications – contribute significantly to downtime. Certain “change management maturity” activities – automating change management, regularly scheduling changes, adopting change management processes like ITIL etc. – can help companies limit the problems that changes cause in production. As complexity grows in IT Operations, this situation will become more challenging.
