...the website dedicated to cutting the cost of IT Operations.
Once Development was the epicenter of IT, then Operations was. Now it is Service. Soon it will be Governance.
Operations is a commoditised domain now: people buy on price. Antivirus is a commodity. So is backup. So is much of the hardware. Watch what open source software does to systems and network management, media management and a bunch of ther software types. CIOs want to spend their money on an ITIL project, ISO20000 certification, SOX compliance, COBIT audit, Project Management Office, CMDB, and a Balanced Scorecard Dashboard. Funds for IT Operations are limited: it is all about cutting costs now, or soon will be.
So OPS4LESS is gathering ideas, techniques, and reviews to help that cost-cutting process along.
This site rewards collaboration and community. To read the full text of many entries, you need to put something in first. Come up with some content, (an article, a review... just a brief good idea will do), register and log in (so you can be recognised), contribute it, and if it is accepted you will be welcomed to the Ops4Less community with a subscriber access to the full content.
Coming soon: product reviews and community ratings against criteria.
So here we are at the beginning. Stay with us, share with us, as we build a body of knowledge around the many ways to do Ops For Less.
