Automating Cloud Services to Meet Security and Compliance
Healthcare Triangle
Sep 14, 2020
With close to 90% of enterprises adopting a Cloud-first approach, the Cloud has become the obvious choice for rolling out business applications. As IT’s focus shifts from technology provider to service provider not only does their role change but the need for automation also increases. New services must be delivered on demand and at the speed of business. To meet these demands DevOps and service automation are a central part of a sound Cloud strategy.
Service automation and self-service capabilities
The ultimate goal must be Automating the provision process and offering services via a “self-serve” service catalog where the consumers’ only concern should be the service and not the under-laying infrastructure or technology. To achieve this and roll out new services IT organizations need to utilize an automation framework that takes into account the following areas.
- Financial Management
- Automated provisioning
- Security and IAM
- Performance and Security Monitoring
- Compliance and Audit Trail
- Tagging
Paramount to the entire process is addressing security and compliance requirements and ensuring an automated process is in place to monitor, self-heal and maintain a state of continuous compliance.
