Optimizing Cloud for Service Delivery reflects the more advanced position of cloud adoption patterns today. While it still addresses core drivers, objectives, and obstacles as they are evolving, Optimizing Cloud makes what may well be the industry's most granular assessment on how management technologies and cloud accelerants (e.g., converged infrastructure) are being combined into successful clusters or footprints. Indeed, just as there are many different types of clouds in the skies -- from cirrus, to cumulus, to nimbus to combinations such as cumulonimbus -- Optimizing Cloud for Service Delivery begins to shade in a meaningful taxonomy of technology patterns, organizational focus, and cloud success.
