Download or read book The ITIL v3 Basics written by Anurag Thakur and published by Arth-Excel. This book was released on 2018-11-15 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern day IT Services and its subsequent businesses are going through a vast range of changes. These are changes in either demand or the way technology is evolved in the day to day life. IT Industry has been through the phases from business-oriented units to end-user-oriented services. If we look into the history of the IT industry, then we do not need not go beyond the 20th century. It was a UK government initiative that started one of the first frameworks to enhance capacities delivered by IT industry. ITIL® should be given credit for how the IT development work is conducted in today's scenario. When the UK government implemented this framework in general IT practices, the IT work was done for the end users but with a focus towards the businesses. The enhancements in industry ensured that innovations are part of the industry but now the focus is moved from a phase to other. Today, a consumer holds the maximum power to influence biggest business decisions. Until a few years ago, the IT industry had a life that focussed on what requirements clients are looking to fulfill with. Now clients have to sustain that trend and add a separate set that talks about their product's end users. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS) etc came to existence as these gave an idea to address end-users expectations directly even when serving the client. There are other project management frameworks that assist organisations developing their processes but ITIL has a unique advantage as it guides on not only setting up the process but to add a flavor of the service industry. I am trying to put all my professional experiences and knowledge earned through the trainings in this book. Wish you all a Happy Learning time!
