The practical guide to building "on demand" enterprise infrastructure

This book brings together innovative strategies and technologies for becoming an "on demand" enterprise: one that can respond almost instantaneously to any customer demand, market opportunity, or threat.

Leading IBM enterprise consultant Craig Fellenstein shows how to build On Demand infrastructure for integrating all your business processes, partners, suppliers, and customers. Drawing on consulting engagements with many of the world's largest organizations--and IBM's own processes--Fellenstein shows how to:

• Plan and migrate towards an on demand operating environment
• How autonomic computing streamlines and simplifies IT service delivery, and dramatically improves business agility
• Use grid computing to deliver new business services more quickly, flexibly, and cost-effectively
• Leverage on demand technologies to enter new global markets and become a world-class e-Business service provider

Whether you're an IT or business leader, manager, analyst, or strategic planner, this is the blueprint for your on demand revolution.
