English to Portuguese translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - IT (Information Technology) / silo
English term or phrase: fragmented technology silos
I just need to know if the word "silos"is used in Portuguese (because we have the word "silo") in the IT context above. Anyone ever heard it in this sense in Portuguese? or would it be better to use another and what would it be? Apparently it means a system that does not communicate with others.An information silo is a management system incapable of reciprocal operation with other, related management systems.

An information silo is a management system incapable of reciprocal operation with other, related management systems. With department specialization came a silo operational culture for many large organizations. The silo effect is characterized by a lack of communication or common goals between departments in an organization. A bank's management system, for example, is considered a silo if it cannot exchange information with other related systems within its own organization, or with the management systems of its customers, vendors or business partners. "Information silo" is a pejorative expression that is useful for describing the absence of operational reciprocity. Derived variants are "silo thinking", "silo vision", and "silo mentality
