Why Should IT Care? Status quo between business and IT
challenged/removed by option to use external Cloud providers
LOB and developers bypassing IT entirely
External providers challenging IT with on-demand services, innovative business models
Struggling to keep up with demand for new services
Maintaining the “status quo” of IT is exhausting personnel

VMware IT Lessons Learned
Cloud infrastructure technology is not the hardest part of the journey
Three aspects of cloud computing operations MUST be addressed: – Financial management and measurement – CFO view
– Organizational transition – CIO view
– Technology platform – Architecture view
Common challenges – Passive leadership/aligned incentives
– Adopting the mindset of a service-oriented and change-responsive organization
– Understand the transition is evolutionary and make step-wise, evolutionary changes to get there
Recognition that cloud operations (CloudOps) is new and there will be challenges – “Red” is not bad; it’s a an opportunity to optimize and mature
– Think and behave like a “SAAS” provider
