Heterogeneous Network Managers
Old School:
- well planned, highly structured, tightly controlled network environments.
- Gradual change of technology through standardized processes.
- Careful evaluation of products and solutions before implementation.
- In charge of mainframes, minicomputers, WANs, MANs, enterprise networks
New Age:
- interested in getting the job done (short term micro focus)
- avoid “restrictive” standards (no plans)
- quick responses to user demands (fire fighting)
- little control over applications (no power)
- In charge of LANs
