The 2011 Handbook of Application and Service Delivery
While ensuring acceptable application delivery has always been important, it historically was not a top of mind issue for the majority of IT organizations. That changed several years ago when IT organizations began to develop a concerted focus on it as they entered the Application Delivery 1.0 era. However, at the same time that organizations began implementing solutions to address these challenges, a new generation of challenges is emerging. These challenges are driven in large part by the:
* Emergence of a sophisticated mobile workforce
* Adoption of varying forms of virtualization
* Adoption of varying forms of cloud computing
* Shifting emphasis and growing sophistication of cyber crime
As we enter this new Application Delivery 2.0 era, leading IT organizations must focus on improving their ability to provide acceptable application service and delivery amidst ever-increasing IT complexity. The goal of the 2011 Application and Service Delivery Handbook is to help IT organizations ensure delivery when faced with both the first and second generation of application delivery challenges.
