Tackling Cloud Computing Building Blocks with Change Management

Another key task in managing complexity is to put formal change management processes in place to keep track of where data and services are coming from and how they’re being consumed. That means making an inventory of cloud computing and traditional IT resources and services and graphing their relationships with data that those resources and services touch.

You’ll want to document the process of adding a new cloud computing resource or service that maintains such metadata. Ditto for removing resources or services when they’re put to pasture.

Your cloud computing process should include the following:
Explain how a resource or service gets added, removed or changed.
Designate a workflow for enacting the process, along with designating parties responsible, accountable and those who need to be kept informed.
Outline which tools to use, how to use them and how to document changes, additions and deletions

Given such an approach, organizations can rein in their use of cloud computing technologies. Otherwise, they may wind up with their feet in the clouds and their head in the ground, as they attempt to untangle and manage a real mess.
