Microsoft Cloud Adoption Framework for Azure: Governance ConversationNicholas Vossburg
This document outlines Microsoft's Cloud Adoption Framework (CAF) governance model for governing cloud adoption. It recommends starting with an assessment of the current state and future vision. Then establish a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) for governance using core Azure services like management groups, subscriptions, resource groups, Azure Policy and role-based access control. The MVP should focus on key areas like resource tagging, grouping and security baselines. Governance then evolves by maturing the MVP with each cloud release to better align with cloud adoption and IT functions.
Creating an Operating Model to enable a high frequency organizationTom Laszewski
Establishing an appropriate cloud operating model is critical to forming your organization’s successful adoption of cloud, and delivering greater business agility, increasing the cloud migration Return on Investment, and deliver a more secure, performant, reliable, and cost effective cloud computing environment. The impact of the cloud will be felt across your entire organization, including processes and people - not just Information technology. It will significantly affect, and be affected by, your organizational culture and Information technology delivery structures. This session will provide prescriptive guidance regarding the best approaches to evolving an operating model from projects to products, manual, process intensive governance to a ‘trust but verify’ model, long development cycles to continuous integration and deployment, silos between business and IT into a collaborative organizational structure, self-service processes, and continuous improvement. The recommendations in the presentation are based upon lesson learned, best practices, and anti-patterns from thousands of customer’s cloud transformation journeys.
Cloud First does not mean you should jump into cloud without a well-constructed plan. The most successful organizations build the foundational capabilities first and create a roadmap that aligns people, technology, platforms, security, governance and culture. Many CIO’s want the benefits associated with cloud technologies but don’t necessarily know where to start and what questions to ask. This session will provide real world examples of the transformation process, challenges and successes that organizations have experienced in their cloud journey. We will define a low risk strategy and approach to achieve success in the cloud quickly. We will describe the sequencing requirements, milestones, and foundational services that need to be in place on Day 1. And finally, we will reveal the most critical and often overlooked component of your transformation strategy. Sponsored by Smartronix.
Many large enterprises have begun using AWS to host development and test environments while also building greenfield applications in AWS. After realizing the benefits that AWS has to offer, many Enterprise look for ways to accelerate their migration to the cloud.
