Defining services in the catalog

Making IT services into standardized offerings, easy to understandAttribute examples:• Service description• Technical: OS, DBMS, bandwidth,

capacity…• Environmental: geographic, regulatory,

audit• SLAs: operational, provisioning, scaling• Cost: pricing structure, discounts,

overages• Availability: current/planned inventory

If public providers are describing services with this level of detail, IT organizations must do the same.

Cloud services in 5 easy steps!

Deployment is relatively easy, it’s the other 4 steps that are challenging.

Deployment

• Define service template(s)

• Add to catalog

• Monitor usage

Sourcing

• Public, private, traditional IT?

• Shared IT & business decision

• Based on preset criteria

Prioritization

• Based on business value

• Consider your capacity for change

Identify service needs• Support

project and operational needs

• Aligned with business objectives

Set a Business Strategy• Drives

enterprise architecture

• Define projects to achieve business objectives

HP Technology Consulting helps customers address these challenges


What services to move first?

High value, high readiness services should be your “quick wins.”

Where are businesses finding value?• Faster provisioning, development & testing• Ability to “reclaim” unused dev/test servers•Workloads can scale up & back, instantly• Cloud services support greater mobility• Encourage entrepreneurial culture• Shift IT towards innovation away from low-value-added tasks; do more with the same headcount

Graphic: Federal Cloud Computing Strategy


What are common “1st” services to launch?The “IT only” approachMake cloud work for IT, then leverage successes to sell the business on it• IaaS • Self-provisioning of dev, test

environments• Speeds up projects• Forces standardization of platforms• Gets developers and testers into the

habit of “giving up” resources when no longer needed

Business partnership approach“My [executive] wants/has SaaS”• Google Apps, Salesforce.com• Business likes the “cool factor” of cloud• Shadow cloud IT may exist• Work with rogue business teams; learn

from them

“We don’t reclaim dev/test environments – we have a retirement home for them”
