How Can IT Meet These Challenges?
IT as a Service• Convert present day physical and logical IT build-to-order (BTO)
processes into online cloud services• Convert virtual machine (template) configure-to-order ( CTO) into
a service item on a cloud service catalog• Create new on-demand services to support new innovation and
software technologies.• Turn IT organization into a service oriented organization
continuously adapting to new technologies and innovation
BTO – Build application server from individual components upon IT request. (Build server, network, storage , OS, application software)
CTO – Use a base template to create a fixed repeatable configuration that never changes
