WHAT IS ITIL

Information
Technology
Infrastructure
Library - A set of best-practice publications for
IT service management.
The essence of ITIL is to make IT services
explicit and strictly focused on client needs.
Clearly defined responsibilities for service
provision within the IT organization, and
effectively designed IT processes.
As a result, the IT organization concentrates
on the services required by the customer side,
rather than being focused on technologies.

12. Key Features of ITSM

Availability Management, including a real-time
dashboard to provide information on configuration
and services availability.
Configuration Management, helps you identify
configuration items and provides reports on
requests for change (RFCs). Ideally, you should be
able to view the status of IT assets and their
relationship to incidents in real-time.
Service Level Management, which allows you to
maintain and improve IT services through
agreements with your customers. You also should
have the ability to define and manage service
catalogs.

13. Key Features of ITSM

Self Service Management, allows your customers
to view the status of their issues and submit new
issues over the Web. This improves the overall
operation of the service management department
and enhances customer service.
Knowledge Management, provides an important
capability to your IT support staff and your
customers. Support staff will be able to take
advantage of solutions that are known to solve
issues without researching them each time. Your
customers should also be able to search for
solutions over the web, which will reduce calls to
the IT service desk.
