Top 10 Best Practices for Successful Multi-Cloud Management best practices for successful Top 10 multi-cloud management How the multi-cloud world is changing the face of IT Top 10 best practices for successful Overview multi-cloud management A multi-cloud world is quickly becoming the new normal for many enterprises. But embarking on a cloud journey and managing cloud-based services across multiple providers can seem overwhelming. Even the term multi-cloud can be confusing. Multi-cloud is not the same as hybrid cloud. The technical definition of hybrid cloud is an environment that includes traditional data centers with physical servers, private cloud with virtualized servers as well as public cloud provisioned by service providers. Quite often, multi-cloud simply means that an organization uses multiple public clouds from many vendors to deliver its IT services. In other words, organizations can have a multi-cloud without having a hybrid cloud, or they can have a multi-cloud as part of a hybrid cloud. When an organization’s users take the initiative to adopt infrastructure and solutions from different cloud vendors, challenges emerge. Each new cloud service comes with its own tools that can increase complexity. Multi-cloud environments require new management solutions to optimize performance, control costs and secure complicated mixes of applications and environments, regardless of whether they are inside the data center or in the cloud. Today, IT users have a choice. Corporate IT departments know that if they don’t react, they may find themselves irrelevant. As a result, they are moving away from the capital investment model of IT—in which standing up a data center was essential—to assembling a catalog of IT services available from CSPs. In this environment, how can IT control the use of services by different internal groups to avoid unexpected expenses and potential risks? Understanding cloud environments and making decisions about multi-cloud management can be complex. Questions arise, such as how organizations need to change in this multi-cloud world. Working with enterprise customers, IBM has identified ten key pain points and related best practices that help organizations successfully navigate these transformations. 2 Cost transparency and visibility 1 50% of IT decision-makers actively monitor While IT professionals tend to think about process is particularly demanding for their organization’s keeping services available and secure, the multinational organizations with cloud use 1 number one consideration by CEOs and that extends globally across providers and cloud bill.

    Paper—Development and Integration of E-learning Services Using REST APIs Development and Integration of E-learning Services Using REST APIs https://doi.org/10.3991/ijet.v15i04.11687 Saleh Mowla, Sucheta V. Kolekar () Manipal Academy of Higher Education, Manipal, India [email protected] Abstract—E-Learning systems have gained a lot of traction amongst students and academicians due to their flexible nature in terms of location independence, time, effort, cost and other resources. The rapidly changing nature of the education domain makes the design, development, testing and maintenance of E-Learning systems complex and expensive. In order to adapt to the changing policies of educational institutes as well as improve the performance of students, the paper presents a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) approach to minimize the cost and time associated with the development of E-Learning systems. The paper illustrates the development of independent E- Learning web services and how they can be combined to implement the required policies of respective education institutes. The paper also presents a sample policy implemented using developed web services to achieve the required objectives. Keywords—E-learning;Web Services;Service Oriented Architecture;REST APIs 1 Introduction With the era of internet and online information, the development of various E- Learning systems has been on the rise. Many organizations have their own different requirements when it comes to how the content should be portrayed for students to learn in an easy and comprehensible manner online. However, most of the time, the basic purpose of any E-Learning system remains the same. Instead of spending valuable time and resources from scratch, it will be much easier to integrate or reuse available modules to meet the basic purpose.
