Cloud Computing, IT consolidation & ITIL One of the major problems facing large-scale IT operations is a lack of cohesiveness, or simplicity of operation. While it might seem as though increased complexity merely opens the door to additional possibilities, this isn’t the case when things become so scattered and complex as to create or foster [...]

Why ITIL should play a role in Cloud Computing planning & strategy To assume that there should, or even could be just one set of practices or methodologies which would completely cover cloud strategizing in its entirety, is wishful thinking at best. Does this mean that something of this nature won’t emerge in the coming [...]

Frameworks like ITIL add “rigidity” to the Cloud If there’s one thing (which many have previously stated) that might be lacking with regards to cloud computing it is perhaps “rigidity”, or rather a very well-defined system and components. Of the major complaints about cloud technology, lack of established methodologies and policies inherent to its infrastructure [...]

What is an ITIL-certified solution? What do you get when you take all best proven processes for dealing with IT infrastructure-related qualms (and situational considerations) and cram them into a reference digest? This is of course, a loose description of ITIL. There is an extraordinary amount of useful information contained within any particular version ITIL, [...]

Cloud Computing: Training vs. Certification Simply put, Cloud Computing is everywhere these days. More and more institutions are not only adopting cloud technologies, they are also using them to promote products / services to individuals (cloud storage, music, gaming and email immediately spring to mind). However, the real “action” with regards to cloud computing use [...]

Examining Cloud security certification When we speak of a cloud security certification program we are actually speaking of a multi-level course which comprises several different areas; namely, cloud foundation, security, and ISO / IEC. Cloud security is a specialized area within the realm of cloud computing, its aim (as the name implies) is to establish [...]

What is ITIL? ITIL, explained in relatively simple terms When most people hear or read about ITIL (usually via some tech site / blog) they tend to be slightly intimidated by it. This is perhaps due to the imagery of their imagination, which might envision ITIL as an infinitely complex grouping of indecipherable policies; nothing [...]

Why the ITIL mindset is a windfall for Cloud Computing Cloud Computing is a pretty incredible concept, don’t you think? Not only does this technological “rethinking” of computing and networking centralize virtually every component, but it also (at the same time) creates a system for distributing nearly endless (computing) power to individual users. But these [...]
