The app owners then manage their apps and the platform components.  I&#038;O has no SLAs on the platform, etc.<br \/>\nIn the PaaS era, I think this needs to change.  IT Operations (I&#038;O) needs to have full accountability and responsibility for the OPERATION of the PaaS layer. PaaS is no longer a part of the application, but is now really part of the core platform operated by IT.  It\u2019s about 24\u00d77 monitoring, support, etc. and generally this is a task that I&#038;O is ultimately best able to handle.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cloudcomputing.sys-con.com\/node\/2280762\" >read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have been having a great debate with one of my colleagues about the changing role of the IT operations (aka \u201cI&amp;O\u201d) function in the context of PaaS.
