Cloud Requires a New Approach to Automation and

Management

Traditional IT

Management

Cloud

Management

• Applications managed at the

individual device, usually the

desktop, with limited data

portability

• User access to applications

and data managed across

multiple devices ensuring

availability anytime,

anywhere

• Ad-hoc, manual approaches

to building, testing, releasing

complex applications based

on monolithic architectures

• Applications developed and

released on consistent,

standardized, fully

automated application

platforms

• Static, traditional

infrastructures with low levels

of virtualization resulting in

complex, often manual

management processes

• Highly virtualized

infrastructures (>80%) with

embedded management

resulting in high availability

and greater agility

Services and assets tied

together in complex, brittle,

vertical stacks that are hard

to change and manage

Service components are

abstracted and sourced from

dynamic resource pools with

horizontal layers loosely bound

into services Business agility

suffers

IT able to keep up with the

speed of the business
