IDC’s study also found that:
42% of an organization’s
spend was in IT budgets
28% was a direct allocation
to line of business (LoB)
30% was dedicated to DX
budget
Enterprises Are in the Middle of the Digital Transformation Journey
In terms of global progression, IDC also believes we are leaving Phase 1 and transitioning into Phase 2.
According to the IDC
Global DX Leaders Study
(June 2018):
46% of organizations were
“digitally determined”
54% were “digitally
distraught”
IDC believes that there are three discrete phases of digital transformation (DX):
By the end of 2020, at least 55% of organizations will be “digitally determined.”
New technologies and delivery models
Platforms and communities

The DX Journey Requires Four Focus Areas
› Hybrid IT management simplifies the complexity of managing hybrid environments to improve the customer experience
› Enterprise DevOps delivers speed through process automation and team collaboration between development and operations
› Security, risk, and governance transform security by improving compliance through embedded security mechanisms
› Predictive analytics provides insights through use of machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) across massive data pools at near-real-time speed

Today’s hybrid IT infrastructure is the culmination of decades of evolution:
› Traditional on-premises infrastructure
› On-premises private cloud
› Containers
› Modern applications
› Public cloud
Existing methods to manage IT
service demands are limited by
weak business alignment and silos.
IT organizational structures and
political inertia often inhibit
optimized IT service delivery
capabilities.
These challenges lead to
fragmented data pools/tools,
ineffective root cause analytics,
event storms, slow-moving teams,
and no end-to-end service views.
What’s needed?› Service management that automates self-
service for both business and IT users
› Service fulfillment that rapidly and accurately
deploys services onto any cloud
› Service assurance using AIOps to proactively
spot anomalies and automate remediation
› Service governance to maintain a more
consistent compliance state
› However, the problem becomes multi-variant
Hybrid IT Management Addresses Service Delivery Challenges that Slow IT Operations

Fragmented Management Tools and Multicloud Silos Increase Complexity, Reducing Visibility
This means that service management, assurance, fulfillment, and governance are even more important today to:› Deliver intuitive self-service to business and IT teams
› Visualize services end-to-end, applying automation and AI to operations data
› Empower enterprise DevOps teams to use the right deployment model
› Provide service governance for consistent provisioning, patching, backups, and cost governance
Multiple clouds = multiple silos and teams and fragmented management tools driving up complexity and reducing service visibility.

› AIOps drives value across the entire service delivery chain by reducing downtime and IT costs
› Applying AIOps to proactively spot anomalies and automate remediation can prevent unplanned downtime
› Return to health faster with AIOps-enabled correlation and automated remediation
› Systems learn faster and support better decisions through a common data lake for analytics
Analytics Enable ITOM to Scale

Advice for Decision Makers
› Micro Focus has products that address enterprise DevOps, hybrid IT management, security, risk, and governance.
› With predictive analytics, it is fair to ask if Micro Focus tools are as effective when other platforms are integrated with its own platform —that is, do they “play well with others?”
› Do integrations span both the Micro Focus portfolio, as well as third-party solutions?
