Information Technology nowadays becomes more and more important to an organization. As an example, Email system which is categorize as non-important servers now become critical servers – which will need a 99% uptime. Furthermore, ICT departments are increasingly called upon to deliver consistent service levels, measure performance, and document the value of IT to the business by showing that written service level agreements (SLAs) are being met - anyway, this is what management wants, isn’t it? However, while necessary, day-to-day monitoring and reporting on SLA compliance can deplete the resources of staffs and budgets that are already stretched.
