This document discusses how to create a dynamic IT environment using modern IT models like cloud computing. It begins by addressing common complaints about IT being a "bottomless pit of money" and being slow and unresponsive. It then introduces cloud computing and discusses how virtualization, scaling IT, and private clouds can help make IT more efficient and responsive to business needs. The document recommends using Microsoft tools like System Center and Windows Server to build a private cloud, and provides an overview of System Center's capabilities for infrastructure management, cloud management, and service management.

10. First at all: What is Cloud?
• A model for enabling ubiquitous, convenient, on-demand network
access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g.,
networks, servers, storage, applications and services) that can be
rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort
or service provider interaction.

11. Modern I.T. models
• High hosting cost
• High administrative cost
• Complex licensing and hardware
warranty
• Complex maintence of patchs,
hardware
• Lots of single points of failure
Classic I.T
• Reduction of host in DC
• Simples licensing process
• Lower hosting cost
• Simplification of patch managing
Virtual I.T. • Effort reduction of administration
of VMs
• Optimizarion of acquisition costs
• Ensures availability of
computational resources
• Simplifying in implementing
patches at different levels
Scaling I.T.
