	Bootstrapping an Infrastructure
		The gold server was an interesting machine; it usually was not part of the infrastructure, was usually the only one-off in the whole infrastructure, was not mission-critical in the sense that work stopped if it went down, but nevertheless the entire infrastructure grew from and was maintained by that one machine.
		The first infrastructure we used to develop this model was in fact one that had started chaotically, as four desktop machines that were administered by the application developers who sat in front of them.
		A systems administration background is crucial for the development of a good infrastructure architect, but we have found that the skillset, project time horizon, and coding habits needed by an infrastructure architect are often orthogonal to those of a systems administrator -- an architect is not the same animal as a senior sysadmin.

		Schwarzenegger's proposal, which he presented during his 2006 State of the State speech, is the broadest of the infrastructure proposals and would ultimately involve the biggest amount of money over the longest period of time.

	Infrastructure - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Infrastructure, most generally, is the set of interconnected structural elements that provide the framework for supporting the entire structure.
		For instance, software engineering tools are sometimes described as part of the infrastructure of a development shop, and the term infrastructural capital in economics may be overly broad, as it includes a range from clothing to a continent-spanning canal system.
		"Soft Infrastructure" is a term that denotes institutions that maintain the health and cultural standards of the population.

		By decoupling the entire software environment from its underlying hardware infrastructure, virtualization enables the aggregation of multiple servers, storage infrastructure and networks into shared pools of resources that can be delivered dynamically, securely and reliably to applications as needed.
		VMware virtual infrastructure solutions are ideal for production environments in part because they run on industry-standard servers and desktops and support a wide range of operating system and application environments, as well as networking and storage infrastructure.
		Learn more about VMware Infrastructure 3, the next generation of industry-leading infrastructure virtualization software that virtualizes servers, storage and networking, allowing multiple unmodified operating systems and their applications to run independently in virtual machines while sharing physical resources.

	A Development Infrastructure for PHP
		In my infrastructure this is implemented as a series of screen structure scripts which are combined with the output from each database table class to produce an XML file which is then transformed into HTML output by using one of the generic XSL stylesheets.
		Although this infrastructure appears to be quite complex due to the large number of components, each component is responsible for just a small area and is therefore relatively simple.
		In an earlier version of this infrastructure I used different stylesheets for each database table which had the table names, field names and field labels all hard-coded, but I have subsequently found a way to use a smaller number of generic stylesheets.

	Infrastructure - SourceWatch
		The definition for infrastructure, critical infrastructure or life-critical infrastructure, has changed as technology advances and changes and culture and society evolve.
		These critical infrastructures include telecommunications, electrical power systems, gas and oil storage and transportation, banking and finance, transportation, water supply systems, emergency services (including medical, police, fire, and rescue), and continuity of government.
		Because many of these critical infrastructures are owned and operated by the private sector, it is essential that the government and private sector work together to develop a strategy for protecting them and assuring their continued operation."

	Public-Private Infrastructure Advisory Facility
		Governments face a wide range of challenges as they transform their role in infrastructure from financier, owner, and operator of services to facilitator and regulator of privately provided services.
		Countries that have relied on the traditional model of public utilities and transport authorities are often ill equipped to design and put in place arrangements for private provision of infrastructure services.
		To help governments develop the capacity to undertake reforms for introducing private participation in infrastructure and to regulate private service providers, PPIAF assesses needs and provides detailed recommendations, sponsors workshops and seminars on sector-specific themes, and underwrites initial investments in regional capacity building programs.
