6 Steps to SDDC

Virtualise – Virtualisation is the foundation of the SDDC. 

Know your workload – Understand your utilisation and maximise resource efficiency. 

Understand your business and operational processes – Long provisioning processes impact the speed of your business. Agility is stalled if there are lots of red tape attached to the business process. 

Address security & compliance – Securing your workloads and ensuring corporate compliance is key to managing your data

Automate and orchestrate – Automate the consumption of resources and the deployment of your workloads and applications. Policy-based automation will accelerate time-to-market and reduce manual steps that can lead to configuration errors. Automation leads to standardisation, it’s consistent, scalable, repeatable, and secure. 

Educate your end users – End users have to understand the change in processes involved with automation. Self-service IT becomes key in how end users consume resources.
