Deliver modern operations for DevOps and SRE teams Today’s landscape Enterprise relies on digital services to deliver modern customer experiences. These digital services run on applications that need rapid development, testing, and production to deliver business outcomes. While apps and services continue to increase through the enterprise, it becomes harder for IT teams to maintain visibility and control over the distributed architectures and services. To provide a modern experience, service reliability is of the utmost importance. Service reliability parameters in the contemporary stack governed by DevOps and SRE practices require a more flexible but granular scrutiny at microservice levels. Are you ready to shift to the modern operations? The ServiceNow solution helps multiple teams achieve their goals while maintaining speed of deployment and keeping service reliability in check. Figure 1: Foundation for a modern operations workflow for your digital products and services DevOps team receives the autonomy and automation they love. Developers want to work in the tools they love and traditional change management often slows them down. ServiceNow automates change governance throughout the pipeline while deploying services reliably. ServiceNow connects to existing DevOps pipeline tools while increasing deployment frequency with automated change creation, tracking, and approvals based on policies leveraging any data available in ServiceNow. DevOps teams can measure deployment performance, gain insight into the operational impact, and speed up remediation. SRE team receives the service reliability they desire. SREs get insights at speed to track teams and their microservices. Distributed team access means they can handle core setup of their teams monitoring, SLOs, on-call, and automation without requiring administrators. With the ability to correlate the telemetry signals from monitoring tools, they’re able to view the health of services in context of SLOS without going into multiple screens. They also gain speed to predict issues and failures with logs and machine learning before monitoring tools expose them. SREs don’t have to leave their work tools in order to receive on-call incident notifications and take actions on alerts to view service degradations. SREs are empowered to add their own alert automation for enrichment, grouping, and escalation. Centralized IT Operation receives the resilience they need. Enterprises want to run services resiliently without causing unnecessary interruptions. However, they need services to be registered to provide visibility into the work of distributed teams without slowing them down. They enable teams to register their services while maintaining central visibility. For instance, teams can use Tag-based Service Mapping to view service dependencies and changes in the underlying resources and microservices. Utilizing log analytics, teams can start predicting issues right away without lifting and shifting existing tools. In a nutshell, IT keeps oversight of delivering digital products and services with full confidence and speed without causing pre- and post-production delays. As a result of ServiceNow data, teams have complete traceability from initial ideation and planning through service definition, build and deployment, as well as performance in production. 1 Foundation for a modern operations workflow Resilient Increase service resilience across teams Automated Automate changes through the pipeline and alert response Predictive Predict issues with logs and Machine Learning Benefits for everyone 1.
