• IORM (I/O Resource Management) allocates I/O bandwidth based on
database or application priorities
• Instance Caging shares CPU for multiple databases within a node

ITIL Best Practices
1. Make the model work for you. ITIL is a framework of good
practices. Use what helps, don’t use what doesn’t.
2. Defining
2 D fi i services and processes h two main goals that
i d has i l h
shouldn’t be forgotten:
1. Understand how the business or government entity delivers value and
generates revenue or income. Prioritize the most critical services and
income
measure for continuous improvement.
2. Define, standardize and measure how IT serves the business and delivers
value.
3. Think as much as possible in terms of the service consumed
by the ultimate end customer. It focuses attention on reaching
overall business goals.
4. Many IT organizations think of themselves as offering services.
To avoid confusion, IT should communicate what they do in
terms of ITIL processes.


ITIL Best Practices – cont.
5. Have an IT and business owner for each business service.
6. It is tempting to consider assets, systems and applications that
internal users consume as services. Th
i l i These might b
i h be
considered technical services if the use is truly internal only
(such as HR). However, most employees exist to serve the
end customer somehow and the ultimate service is the one the
customer consumes, even if its delivered by an employee.
7. When using RACI, use actual employee names with one or
two backups if needed Titles organizations or groups won’t
needed. Titles, won t
drive the accountability and ownership needed.
8. Never list more than one name for “approve” when using
RACI.
