It involves a series of practices aimed at preserving and improving the technological infrastructure.

Definition and scope of IT maintenance

IT maintenance encompasses all the operations necessary for the proper functioning of an information system. This includes the management of servers, networks, workstations, databases, as well as computer security. Typical activities include:

- Installing and updating software, including operating systems and security applications such as anti-virus.
- Regular monitoring of systems to detect and rectify problems before they become critical.
- Data backup to prevent loss of vital information.
- Troubleshooting and repairing hardware and software.

These tasks can be performed internally by a dedicated team or outsourced to specialized professionals.

Why is IT maintenance crucial ?

The growing dependence of companies on technology makes IT maintenance an absolute necessity. Without proper maintenance, companies are exposed to significant risks such as:

- System failures that can result in costly downtime.
- Security attacks, such as ransomware, that can compromise sensitive data.
- Degradation of equipment performance, which may affect overall productivity.

The different types of IT maintenance

IT maintenance can be classified into several categories:

1. Preventive: Regular actions to reduce the risk of hardware or software failures.
2. Corrective: Actions required after a failure to restore the system to serviceability.
3. Scalable: Updates and system enhancements to adapt to new business requirements or take advantage of technological advances.

The importance of proactive maintenance

Opting for a proactive approach to IT maintenance is crucial to minimize interruptions and optimize the performance of IT systems. This involves constant monitoring and preventive interventions to detect and correct anomalies before they cause failures.
