The true measure of system efficiency is putting a number on it
When it comes to upgrading your IT infrastructure, one of the key selling points that both vendors and service providers raise is efficiency. Every industry has its own definition of the word, but in the most basic, literal sense, efficiency is a measure of how well a certain system works to produce a specific amount of output. In IT terms, a more efficient architecture generates a particular level of output consuming a smaller pool of resources such as human capital, energy, etc. In a business scenario, doing the same work for less input is a tantalizing proposition. It just makes sense.
