Public Cloud Services

The Approach in the IT Management

Traditional IT Management Management in the new Era

Services and assets tied together in complex, brittle, vertical stacks that are hard to change and manage

Service components are abstracted and sourced from dynamic resource pools with horizontal layers loosely bound into services

Business agility suffers

5

IT able to keep up with speed of the business

Key Constituents for Infrastructure and Management

How do I build the right infrastructure to deliver business value yet still keep the lights on? What kind of infrastructure should I design for today and tomorrows needs? Will it work with our current infrastructure? How do I keep OpEx down and still deliver high quality of service?
