IT Complexity
IT outages are costing large enterprises billions because modern IT environments are far too complex and dynamic for traditional tools.

The Cost of Outages is Increasing
Most organizations have deployed a host of monitoring tools to keep their business services running smoothly, yet the cost of outages is increasing.

• Focus on app and OS, deep app data • Lack infrastructure visibility • Provide 10% visibility into end-to-end service • Gartner: “supplement to infrastructure monitoring” • Cannot provide end-to-end relationship model
• Originally meant for retrospective diagnosis • Limited visibility to app and infrastructure, no
intelligence about specific metrics/thresholds • Provide 10% visibility into end-to-end service • Cannot provide end-to-end relationship model
APP LOG
• Potential to provide complete coverage for all IT service components • Only way to get end-to-end relationship model • Most difficult data to get, many disparate tools

DOWNTIME Commonly spend anywhere from
12-48 hours resolving service-interrupting issues.
LACK OF ALIGNMENT Most aren’t able to bridge the gap
between IT Ops and DevOps.
SURPRISES LOBs deploy services then tell IT
Ops make sure they’re never down.
DISPARATE VIEWS Commonly have anywhere from 10-
30 different tools for mitigating application/service downtime.
INEFFICIENCY Paralyzed by manual processes and
aren’t able to automate key functions that keep services on.
OPPORTUNITY COST Gotten really good at addressing issues by getting everyone in a
room until it’s resolved.

SDO Definition
A model based, policy driven, declarative, programmable abstraction that separates the underlying infrastructure from the needs of the
applications/services.

Explaining Software-Defined IT Operations
Zenoss - Own IT 16
• Model-based • Mathematical representations of systems, implemented in computer code that is declarative • Holistic approach that determines full context for these representations, and for interacting with other systems • Allows rapid identification of issues (RCA) in complex systems • Provides a common design environment, which facilitates general communication, data analysis • Value: intelligent, predictive
• Policy-driven • Policy is an aggregation of rules • Separates rules governing behavior of a system from its functionality • Systematic method for establishing, revising, and distributing policies • Automatically adaptive to a dynamic environment • Value: adaptive to dynamic environment
• Declarative • What needs to be done instead of how to do it • expressing what the user wants, and shielding them from the low-level constructs • Like the RDB, could raise productivity by an order of magnitude • Value: simplified usability, increased efficiency, eliminates human errors
• Programmable abstraction • An abstraction hides details/complexity • Framework to allow IT Ops practitioners to easily manage diverse environments • Value: extensibility within the system and with other systems
