IT service management forms the backbone of any forward looking IT infrastructure.  Whether it’s the latest trends, techniques or strategies, the content in this channel will help you optimize your organization's IT operations.

Reporting only at the technical level in Information Technology only impedes ITSM success. The goal is to drive business performance, growth, and sustainability through technology. To begin, you need to understand the current ITSM environment that manages the technology performance. Once this is understood, set the intentions to mature business performance through the use of metrics.  In this webinar,  I'll cover ITSM metrics and the essential business maturity metrics that provide a well rounded outlet to measure ITSM and its impact or influence to business performance.

- IT as a strategic business unit
- Business Maturity metrics provide the business perspective
- Maturity Metrics bundle for ITSM and business performance

Maturity Through Metrics

Delivering enhanced digital experiences have become a competitive advantage for any organization. As a result, business models have moved towards the digital experience economy. Technologies such as application programming interfaces (APIs), integration platforms, identity and access management solutions, cloud offerings, and big data enable a steady observability layer to understand consumer usage patterns and trends. In addition, connected products enhance the number of data points fed into the observability layer at the edge. 

In this keynote, Asanka will look at how a connected product can be brought into a digital ecosystem to enhance customer experiences and increase revenue. He will share reference architectures and real-world success stories to provide a pragmatic approach to digital strategists and crafters.

Fuelling the Digital Experience Economy with Connected Products

The modern worker expects a flawless digital experience while working from the office, home, anywhere — nearly a third of employees have changed jobs due to poorly performing workplace systems and technology.

While employee retention becomes a key corporate objective, IT operations are increasingly blind to the performance of modern applications: 42% of users report performance issues with SaaS solutions, but 39% escape detection by existing monitoring tools.*
What’s changed? Modern, cloud-powered applications redefine app delivery by accelerating the adoption of cloud-powered security, access and networking with SASE, SWG, CASB and SD WAN that both enable and impact a distributed workforce.

This session will explore how essential cloud technologies are creating this new visibility gap by illustrating it with live examples from global-scale enterprise networks in manufacturing, retail and eCommerce verticals.

Learn how visibility can be reestablished across this new digital infrastructure by combining agentless real user monitoring with AI-enabled synthetic testing. See how correlating the dynamic traffic path with user-centric performance metrics reveals the digital employee experience, and empowers IT operations to optimise it.

The live demonstrations in this session will be based on real-time data collected from over 100 global locations and over a billion daily user transactions.

Gain 360° Visibility for Modern App Performance: Deliver an Amazing UX

Almost no organization has a solid CMDB underpinning their IT processes. You probably also have a CMDB that is not up to date nor equipped to do the job, despite all efforts including implementing automated inventory and discovery.  

The question is: should we even try to manage the CMDB in this dynamic cloud ecosystem where resources are dynamically deployed and turned off again? Is the current approach to the CMDB suitable for the new multi-vendor digital ecosystem with micro-services, containers, and cloud (e.g. IAAS, SAAS)? 

In this session we will discuss: 
- How CMDB will evolve 
- How to get configuration management on track 
- How to ensure CMDB is up-to-date 
- Why CMDB initiatives have failed, and how to fix this approach

Forget the CMDB, it Will Never Be Your Friend!

More and more organizations are moving vital workloads on to cloud architecture, especially their data. However, many are not ensuring that the same level of monitoring that they would perform in an on-premises environment. Performance problems on cloud infrastructures don’t simply result in slower databases, but in higher overall costs. This session will walk you through why you need to monitor your databases in the cloud. We’ll discuss some of the built-in architectures available to you using Azure and AWS as examples. We’ll also walk through additional resources from building your own monitoring solution to taking advantage of third party tooling. Moving to the cloud carries all sorts of advantages, but you need to be prepared to appropriately monitor your databases too. This session will help you get started.

The Importance of Database Monitoring on Cloud Platforms

Over the last year a lot has happened in the world.  COVID, although central and heavily impacting all of our lives in one way or another, is  unfortunately not the only virus that has been a topic of conversation.  In the last year the focus has shifted to bring the attention on cyber security and the impact of vulnerabilities in the software and systems many organizations often considered were secure.  The President of United States’ executive order on cyber security has fanned the flame to push for greater measures to protect against threats and mitigate vulnerabilities more effectively.  In this talk we will explore recent reported vulnerabilities, some of the advancements being developed in the open source community and how a focus on the Sec in DevSecOps can help your organization through more effective processes and best practices in your SDLC.

[Panel] Automation in ITSM: Where Are We?

Customer experience is driven by the employee experience. 

Customer experience (EX) is now the new battlefront. It is the differentiator. It is your competitive advantage. Customer experience has overtaken price and product as the key brand differentiator. 

It is therefore paramount to get the employee experience right.

The Great Resignation – over 40% of the global workforce is considering leaving their job this year - has come about through The Great Realization that can be happy at work. The pandemic has allowed employees to reflect on what is important to them – not only in their personal life but also their work life.

Massive change is afoot. Employees are in the driving seat having proved that remote working can work, they are no longer limited by geographical boundaries when seeking a new employer. They are demanding retention of the flexibility to choose where they work and when. 

The Indeed Workplace Happiness Study 2021 revealed that 97% of employees believe that happiness at work is possible and therefore will look for employers who can met their expectation.
Unless you are an employer of choice, your will lose your talent and be unable to attract it.
Service Management must move from managing IT to enhancing the employee experience.

This presentation will explore:
-The reason a great employee experience is imperative to organizational success
-The role Service Management will play
-The ITIL Guiding Principles for improved employee experience
-The service management processes that drive the employee experience

Key takeaways include:
-Where to start
-How service management can maximize the employee experience
-The return on investment
