Operations As-a-Service - The Untapped OpportunityRussell Ives
Operations-as-a-Service (OaaS) is
the logical culmination of a set of business and technology trends that have been converging for several years. Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) and IT Outsourcing (ITO) began in the 1990’s but evolved significantly over time, becoming more commoditised, incorporating sophisticated platforms and bundling more and more services.
More recently, sourcing has blended with various forms of As-a-Service, most notably via integrated, cloud-based applications, or Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), alongside increasing levels of
IT infrastructure delivered as-a-Service (IaaS). Advancements in data processing and computing intelligence (including, for example, predicative analytics and robotic process automation) have also become fundamental - allowing for a new class of data-driven business insights. This overall combination of proven business process management disciplines and intelligent, cloud- driven technologies is now known as Operations-as-a-Service.

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.

HP Superpartners Optimizes IT Operations
1. Superpartners Optimizes IT Operations
with HP and JDS
“HP Business Availability Center has assisted us to see the actual performance of
our systems as experienced by our customers. It provides us with an early warning
system and we can drill down to the transaction level to examine potential issues.
We now have improved our ability to pinpoint exactly where a problem might be
and fix it before our end-users experience degradation in our systems.”
Gary Evans, Chief Information Officer, Superpartners
HP customer case
study: One of
Australia’s largest
superannuation
administrators’,
Superpartners,
uses HP Business
Availability Center
to try and optimize
the availability,
performance and
effectiveness of its
business services and
applications.
Industry:
Superannuation
About Superpartners
Superpartners is one of the largest superannuation
administrators’ in Australia, employing over 1,500
people in eight offices Australia-wide. The company
services about 6 million member accounts, 667,000
employer accounts and has over $72 billion in funds
under administration.
Recognising that technology is a key enabler of its
success, Superpartners develops core applications
in-house, and sources third party products and
services that complement its offering. Operating
a business on considerable scale and complexity,
the company has embraced a service-oriented
technology strategy with business efficiency and
service delivery as its focal points.
With a mission to achieve efficiency and
effectiveness through operational excellence,
Superpartners sought to strengthen the end-user
experience by gaining greater visibility into its
IT infrastructure. The company turned to HP and
adopted a Business Technology Optimization (BTO)
approach to optimize the availability, performance
and effectiveness of its business services and
applications with HP Business Availability Center
software.
Taking a Proactive Approach and Gaining End-to-
End Visibility
In supporting such a large user base, Superpartners
is keenly focused on ensuring its business processes
and technology operations deliver value to the
business. Prior to implementing HP Business
Availability Center, the company had outsourced
monitoring of its infrastructure, which proved limiting.
And with the growth of the organisation’s application
portfolio, the need to comprehensively and
proactively monitor the health of its systems became
increasingly apparent.
Objective:
To try and maximise the end-user experience,
Superpartners sought to proactively monitor IT
availability and performance
Approach:
Superpartners adopted an HP Business
Technology Optimisation (BTO) strategy with
HP Business Availability Center software as
the centrepiece in its application management
strategy
IT improvements:
Superpartners has monitored the end-user•
experience, and believes it has isolated
problems and resolved issues efficiently and
effectively
Increased the quality of its services to the•
business, its customers and employees
Better understanding of the complexities•
and interdependencies of its IT infrastructure
including networks, systems and applications
Improved SLA compliance and believes it has•
reduced exposure to risk
Business benefits:
Improvement of the performance and•
availability of Superpartners’ IT Infrastructure
and Applications
Association with JDS Australia delivered fast-•
time to value
Gained true end-to-end visibility of its systems to•
improve the end-user experience
Improved service quality, increased productivity•
and gained confidence in the availability and
performance of its applications.
Operational efficiencies, alignment of business•
and IT, and delivery of better governance
2. “Not only are we are also enabling a much more
efficient environment, but we are delivering better
governance, particularly around our SLAs.”
Gary Evans, Chief Information Officer, Superpartners
Gary Evans, Chief Information Officer,
Superpartners explains, “We needed to gain a
better understanding of our environment and we
wanted to become proactive and respond more
effectively to incidents. The early warning systems
that we had in place just weren’t enough. We also
wanted a more accurate way to determine if we
were meeting our Service Level Agreements. Put
simply, we needed a comprehensive application
management solution and HP Business Availability
Center met our requirements.”
Partnering to Fast-Track Time to Benefit
To facilitate deployment, Superpartners engaged HP
Business Partner, JDS Australia, experts in software
testing and monitoring with HP solutions. JDS
provided specialist services in application monitoring
to help Superpartner realise value from its HP
investment. Steve Smith, General Manager (Victoria)
JDS says, “Superpartners was quick to recognise
the benefits of application monitoring, particularly
in terms of enhancing their end-user services. In a
matter of weeks they were monitoring the availability
and performance of their application, and gaining
true end-to-end visibility into what was happening
behind the scenes. By having access to vital and
detailed information about their systems, they can
now be appraised of issues ten minutes before
their end-users experience an outage, and begin
resolution.
Overall, Superpartners is realising the benefits of
proactive visibility and access to a consolidated
end-user and infrastructural view of their application
performance. They have achieved much improved
SLA compliance and have considerably reduced
risk. We are delighted with the outcome and believe
that the collaborative approach we established with
Superpartners is the key to success.”
Fast Resolution of Problems, Productivity Gains and
Reduced Risks
A comprehensive business application management
solution, HP Business Availability Center has allowed
Superpartners to monitor the health of its systems.
Specifically, the organisation is keeping a close eye
on the end-user experience, continuously isolating
problems and assessing the status of key services
and applications.
Gary explains, “HP Business Availability Center has
enabled us to see the actual performance of our
systems as experienced by our customers. It provides
us with an early warning system and we can drill
“We have improved the quality of our services and
are benefiting from increased productivity by having
the ability to concentrate resources where needed
and by achieving generally quicker resolution time.
We have also enhanced SLA compliance and we
have improved reporting on both infrastructure
and application availability. Finally, the synthetic
monitoring that HP Business Availability Centre
provides reduces our application deployment
risk and we have gained confidence that our
applications will perform as intended.”

3. down to the transaction level to examine potential
issues. We now have the ability to pinpoint exactly
where a problem might be and potentially fix it
before our end-users experience degradation in our
systems.
In addition, HP Business Availability Center has
helped us better understand the complexities
and interdependencies of our IT infrastructure
including networks, systems and applications.
In turn, this provides us with the information we
need to diagnose, isolate and fix problems quickly
to maintain business continuity. As a result, we
have improved the quality of our services and are
benefiting from increased productivity by having the
ability to concentrate resources where needed and
by achieving quicker resolution time. We have also
enhanced SLA compliance and we can now report
on both infrastructure and application availability.
Finally, the synthetic monitoring that HP Business
Availability provides reduces our application
deployment risk and we have gained confidence that
our applications will perform as intended.”
Better Governance and Future Plans
Today, Superpartners’ Technology team is
able to undertake forward planning, proactive
management and maintenance of its systems,
instead of functioning in a reactionary state. This
is delivering added benefits as the organisation’s
business operations and future direction can be
fully supported by a high-performing technology
infrastructure, capable of adapting to market
changes.
Gary elaborates, “We are yet to capitalize on the
full potential of HP Business Availability Center. We
still have additional functionality and capabilities to
leverage to further optimize our systems, but we’re
now in a strong position to react and fix issues
quickly. Not only are we also enabling a much more
efficient environment, but we are delivering better
governance, particularly around our SLAs.”
Looking to the future, we are aiming to ensure HP
Business Availability Center is rolled out across
all our application environments. This will enable
us to gain true alignment between our monitoring
capabilities and our user experience, to achieve
end-to-end optimization of our services and
applications.”
On the whole, HP Business Availability Center is
enabling Superpartners to manage and optimise the
quality, performance and effectiveness of its business
services and applications.
“Superpartners is realising the benefits of proactive
visibility and access to a consolidated end-user and
infrastructural view of their application performance.
They have achieved much improved SLA compliance
and have considerably reduced risk. We are
delighted with the outcome and believe that the
collaborative arrangement we established with
Superpartners is the key to success.”
