IT automation is the buzz in today’s IT and Data Center Management. To be consistent in all situations in every time in every possible manner is the "Mantra". And it’s that consistency that then drives consistent levels of service and ensures that you’re meeting the commitments you’ve made in service level agreements to the clients.
