What are the Benefits of a well-structured network? What is a network? A network, in computing, is a set of two or more interconnected computers that distribute information between each other. This connection is made by cabling and other devices. In this context, let’s understand better the history and benefits of a well-structured computer network?!

The history of networks in computing develops in the 1960s, during the Cold War. At that time, Arpanet was created, thus being the starting point of the internet. Arpanet was initially developed for military purposes and then universities and companies started using it with another protocol.
Networks continue to evolve nowadays and specific steps need to be taken to get the full benefits of this type of communication. In a hyper-connected world, companies must be present to remain competitive and carry out processes intelligently. We can say that for network systems to be agile, information processing needs to be fast and secure.
The main benefits of a well-structured network are:
- The accessibility
- The cost reduction
- data sharing
- network security
- the agility
- the speed
Accessibility
Imagine, you enter the place where your company’s network system is allocated to solve any possible problem that is occurring and you are faced with the following situation: lack of organization of devices and poorly done cabling. This creates stress and hampers the workflow. A well-structured network would make any change more accessible to carry out.
cost reduction
With the improvement in accessibility, there is consequently a reduction in costs related to infrastructure and labour, that is, maintenance in general. With improved infrastructure, the lifespan of network components is increased.
sharing
Components such as switches, hubs, cables, and routers; need to be organized to share data efficiently. Without an organization, these components can generate several problems such as data loss and system damage. With this, it is clear that companies will share information from their databases due to its high availability and time savings.
Safety
With new technologies to steal data, security can be compromised. With a structural pattern, equipment configurations are simpler to make, increasing system reliability.
Agility
After all these factors, the consequence is improved agility in terms of accessing devices and their respective cabling, automating processes and reducing tiring tasks.
speed
With all this, without a system that responds quickly at a time when we need to be hyperconnected to perform tasks as soon as possible and remain competitive, physical structuring would be worthless. One of the main benefits of good network structuring is the speed with which the communication system operates, enhancing the communication of the sectors of a company.
Conclusion
We can see that the benefits of having a well-structured network will generate protection for your company, providing more efficient management and meeting deadline requirements. This structural pattern creates more flexible support given the different types of services that are free for new implementations for any provider.
