Guided By Business Value
In the fast-paced business environment, Information Technology (IT) wants to be seen as a crucial driver of organizational success, yet it often remains perceived as a cost center focused on technology implementation and operation. The fall 2023 issue of the DevOps Enterprise Journal illustrates that IT programs are frequently measured using non-business value metrics. While we at Idea Harbor advocate for DORA-style metrics, business value is the key driver for our engagements.
FinOps vs. Security
In the dynamic landscape of information technology, organizations are increasingly adopting cloud computing for its transformative impact. As sensitive data migrates to the cloud, robust policies, accountability, and security measures are crucial. Comprehensive policies covering data handling, access management, and encryption, along with employee training, are vital for effective cloud governance and defense against security threats.
Passion is essential; Dogma need not apply
At Idea Harbor, we are passionate about our craft, but not dogmatic about its applications. We have opinions about tools and processes, but we have the experience to help you make whatever tools you have already selected work and accelerate their value. While we believe in agile (notice the lack of capital letters) ways of working, we can help you make your version work for you and not you for it.
The Importance of Metrics in Delivery
In the fast-paced world of IT, the need to measure delivery has always been a challenge. Without a straightforward way to gauge performance, organizations resort to ineffective metrics, leading to skewed results and misinformed decisions. At Idea Harbor, we are committed to providing valuable insights and tangible evidence to support your progress.
