From classic IT management to Modern Service Management based on Microsoft Azure

The biggest advantages of Modern Service Management vs. traditional IT management

Dynamic management of your business-critical applications. Not traditional IT management, but a new way of working. Keeping your applications secure and up-and-running in the cloud. Steering based on relevant insights for maximum results. Who wouldn't want that?  

Organizations are looking for Service Management that fits the desire for a faster time-to-market, approvals without downtime, independent releases, One Button Deploy, and your own goal on the horizon. Our answer to that is Modern Service Management and our Framework, part of the Golden Path. Fewer 'gatekeepers' and no more non-uniform scripts, but infrastructure as code, less workload, and so on... Within the Framework, we determine together what needs to be checked and when, and most importantly why, who should do it, and in what uniform way this happens.

From a busy intersection to a well-oiled roundabout

Business value always comes first. But as an IT department, you don't want to be solely dependent on the business, and vice versa. IT wants to deliver in a reliable, secure, and continuous way. You want to truly collaborate and be responsible for managing your own services. With Modern Service Management, there is more engagement, speed, and better insight into data. The result? More innovation and a transition from controlling to facilitating and taking ownership. Proverbially, you used to be at a busy intersection, and Modern Service Management now helps you move to a well-oiled roundabout. Other benefits for your DevOps teams?

• Monitoring Security - because a secure cloud is key and you want to be fully in control. This ensures you meet all ISO standards.
• Monitoring Quality - are you predictable, and does the qualitative output meet expectations? You are able to make adjustments for maximum business value.  

• Monitoring Cost Management - you gain insight into your IT costs, with the advantage that the system analyzes savings and investments based on these insights.  
• Monitoring Resiliency - with resiliency principles, you ensure your systems handle unexpected circumstances correctly, because these are your business-critical applications, after all.

On the way to a modern way of working according to Microsoft Azure with Bizure

Where the modern DTAP environment and One Button Deploy have long been the standard in Development, they are now also the standard in Business Intelligence. We previously wrote this blog about it. It is time to start the transformation! With Microsoft Azure combined with a real-time dashboard, you are able to manage your development, BI, and operations according to the same Golden Path to implement.
