Ziyaganga futhi zidlangile!
Ngaphambilini ngibhale nge-shadow IT lapha. Kuleyo ndatshana sidingida ukusabalala kwayo, ubungozi bayo nendlela yokuphatha. 
Bengingazi ukuthi iFeral Information Systems (FIS) yinto. Amakati e-Feral engangizwile ngawo. Ngempela sathatha amakati amabili e-feral. Nokho, kwakungamakati phandle emakhazeni, kungekho mnikazi wawo. Ubani ongeke abangenise. Sabayisa kudokotela wezilwane sabaphakela. Eminyakeni emibili kamuva, baye bafunda imikhuba ethile kodwa bahlala benganaki kubantu babo. Iqembu elilodwa ecwaninga lezi zinto ilinganisa amakati e-feral njengenye yezinhlobo eziyi-100 zezilwane ezihlasela kakhulu emhlabeni.
Feral Information Systems
Ama-Feral Information Systems nawo ayahlasela, futhi ayaphikelela futhi aqinile. I definition yeFIS iwuhlelo lwekhompuyutha olwakhiwe isisebenzi esisodwa noma ngaphezulu ukuze sisize ekwenzeni izinqubo zebhizinisi labo. Ivamise ukwakhiwa ukuze kugwenywe, kusetshenzwe noma kudlule amasistimu agunyazwe yi-Enterprise. Ngokomthombo ofanayo, “ulwazi lwama-FIS luhlala lulinganiselwe futhi izincazelo zethiyori ezinikezwa ama-FIS kuphikiswana ngazo kabanzi.” Lokhu kuntuleka kokuqonda mhlawumbe kungenxa yemvelo efana nesolwandle yama-FIS. IPirates ayikhangisi.
Mthunzi IT
I-FIS iyafana, kodwa yehlukile ku-Shadow IT. Nakuba a feral information system yinoma yiluphi uhlelo oludalwa abasebenzisi ukuze luthathele indawo imisebenzi Yohlelo Lwebhizinisi olugunyaziwe, izinhlelo ze-IT eziyithunzi zivame ukuhlala eduze nezinhlelo zezinkampani futhi ziphindaphinde ukusebenza kwazo. Kukhona ukugqagqana kulokho okubizwa ngokuthi “ama-workaround” okuvame ukuba yizinqubo ezingakahleleki nezesikhashana zokusingatha amacala angewona ajwayelekile izinga lebhizinisi elihlulekayo ukuwalungisa ngendlela efanele. Bonke bahlanganyela ugqozi lokuthi zenzelwe ukubhekana nezikhala zangempela noma ezicatshangwayo ohlelweni lokurekhoda.
Kungani kunenkinga?
Kungani kukhona noma yikuphi kwalokhu kwasekuqaleni? Abanye abacwaningi iphakamisa ukuthi ama-FIS empeleni angaba yinto enhle ngoba akhombisa ukuqanjwa kabusha futhi asize iqembu elithile ukuthi lifinyelele imigomo yalo yebhizinisi. Ngokwami, angiqiniseki kangako. Ngicabanga ukuthi okunomthelela omkhulu ekwandeni kwama-FIS yilapho izinhlangano zinezinkinga zesakhiwo noma zamasiko. Ngamanye amazwi, kukhona okuthile esikweni lenhlangano, izinqubo noma ubuchwepheshe obukhama ibhaluni. Lapho ibhaluni likhanywa, umoya udala ibhamuza kwenye indawo. Kungokufanayo nangobuchwepheshe nezinhlelo zedatha. Uma izinqubo ziyinkimbinkimbi, uma amasistimu engabonakali, uma idatha ingafinyeleleki, abasebenzi bavame ukwakha amasu okusebenza. Izinqubo zenziwe lula. Amasistimu alula amukelwa ngokuzenzakalelayo. Idatha yabiwa ngokuyimfihlo.
Ikhambi
Kungase kungenzeki ukuqeda ubhubhane lwezinhlelo zolwazi lwe-feral. Kubalulekile, nokho, ukuzazi futhi uqonde izizathu zokuthi kungani zikhula. Ama-FIS angase abe inkomba yendawo yebhizinisi edinga ukuthuthukiswa. Uma inhlangano ibhekana nezinkinga zesistimu noma eziphathelene nenqubo zobunzima babahlaziyi ekusebenziseni amathuluzi agunyaziwe kanye nokufinyelela kudatha, kungase kube nezidingo ezimbalwa zokufuna amasistimu olwazi.
