This document discusses how the ITIL (Information Technology Infrastructure Library) framework and the Business Process Framework (eTOM) can work together. It describes how ITIL's good practices can be integrated into eTOM's enterprise process structure. Specifically, ITIL good practices are represented as level 2 process elements in eTOM's Enterprise Management area. While ITIL and eTOM address different concerns, they are complementary and supporting each other allows for better integration of IT and business processes. The document provides an overview of this integrated approach and how ITIL good practices can guide and influence related enterprise processes when applied using eTOM.

When two large companies merge, it often takes a while – years in some cases – before processes get redesigned to span all departments, and the new organization settles into a lean and profitable machine. And the same is true of OSS/BSS. These systems have been designed for two different purposes: to keep the network operational and to keep it profitable. But today’s demanding networks need the functions of both of these systems to work together, and to work across the varying lifecycles of products and services.
Open Digital Architecture (ODA) is a blueprint for modular, cloud-based, open digital platforms that can be orchestrated using AI.
Designed to support our industry into the cloud native era, ODA sets the framework required
for CSPs to invest in IT, transforming business agility and operations by creating simpler IT and network solutions that are easier and cheaper to deploy, integrate and upgrade. Enabling growth, profitability and a cutting-edge customer experience.
Integrating ITSM Frameworks, Standards and Processes - ITSM Academy WebinarITSM Academy, Inc.
To successfully achieve IT Service Management (ITSM) best practices, organizations need to adopt multiple ITSM frameworks and standards.
This presentation describes when and how to integrate the most widely used ITSM frameworks and standards, such as ITIL®, COBIT, ISO/IEC 20000 and Microsoft Operations Framework (MOF).
Target readers for this book are all the professionals who are working in Telecom OSS domain or wish to move to OSS domain. Those who already have worked in OSS projects will find this book easier to understand.
It is often noticed that many of the software engineers who work in telecom domain, specially in application delevopment/testing, lag the insights to the complete picture. This results in lack of innovation in what they do and they forget to question - how can they do it better.
So for students of Telecom engineering and newbees into Telecom domain, it is essential to understand the basics of Telecom and to visualize the telecom domain as a whole. This will help them link their bit of contribution to the entire life cycle. Hopefully this presentation serves as a starter.

It is a research paper illustrating how transaction cost economics (TCE) can be used to quantify the hidden cost of running in IT department. The resource-based view (RBV) is then used to explain how a salient IT department can be viewed as a resource to enable a sustainable competitive advantage amongst competitors. This paper is a work in progress awaiting feedback from a senior lecturer.
Review of Matthias Linder's, CTO Magyar Telekom, excellent presentation on their experiences in convergence (many use the term business transformation, to make it sound more expensive.)
Multimodal IT and Orchestration for Digital TransformationLeon Dohmen
Digital transformation implies changing business models. To be able to adapt organizations are using IT operating models and working methods that work at different speeds causing alignment issues between models and working methods. Consequences are (too) high support and maintenance cost, slow innovation, and inconsistent customer experience. The use of archetypes for IT operating models provides a handle to arrange adequate orchestration between operating models and working methods.

Information Technology Service Management (ITSM) Implementation Methodology B...Waqas Tariq
This paper is intended to cover the concept of IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) v3 and how to implement it in order to increase the efficiency of any Egyptian IT corporate and to help the corporate employees to do their work easily and its clients to feel the quality of services provided to them. ITIL is considered now as the de facto standard for IT Service Management (ITSM) in organizations which operate their business based on IT infrastructure and services. ITIL v3 was implemented in western organizations but still it is a new framework for the Egyptian and Arabian environment. The best proof of the lack of ITSM in the Arab region and not Egypt alone is that the percentage of the companies which have ISO/IEC 20000 are less than 2% of the total certified companies in the whole world and in Egypt no company has it until now as stated on APMG ISO/IEC 20000 website[1]. Accordingly this paper investigates an implementation methodology of ITIL in an Egyptian organization taking into consideration the cultural factors and how it will affect the success of this implementation. We have already implemented this methodology in three Egyptian companies and it succeeded to increase the level of process maturity from level one to level four according the PMF
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
