The journey of enterprise IT infrastructure began with computers in the 1950s, which were the bedrock of early corporate computing. Over the decades, as technology advanced, so did the complexity and integration of IT infrastructure. From centralized mainframes, businesses moved to distributed computing and client-server models to cloud computing and hybrid systems.
As complexity increased, so did the need for efficient management. This meant that the introduction of software for IT asset management was a significant milestone. It enabled organizations to track and manage their growing array of IT assets more efficiently, laying the groundwork for modern IT infrastructure management.
