It's time to test some long-held assumptions
IT Myth 1: Server upgrades matter
Reality: Don’t pay extra for upgradability; you’ll never need it
IT Myth 2: Eighty percent of corporate data resides on mainframes
Reality: Try 50 percent, or even less
IT Myth 3: All big shops run multiple platforms
Reality: This 'myth' is closer to fact than fiction
IT Myth 4: CIOs and CTOs have a greater need for business savvy than tech expertise
Reality: Tech chops matter more than ever
IT Myth 5: Most IT projects fail
Reality: It all depends on how you define failure
IT Myth 6: IT doesn't scale
Reality: Virtually any technology is scalable, provided you combine the right ingredients and implement them effectively
