Sinopsis

The IT manager role has expanded faster than the language used to describe it. The job now spans leadership, infrastructure, security, service delivery, project management, and governance, often in environments that change faster than any single person can track.

Most books written for this audience cover one of those areas in depth. Practitioners need all of them, integrated. Modern IT Infrastructure and Operations was written to be that integrated reference.

This book covers what an IT manager needs to understand to lead, design, operate, and improve a modern IT environment, written from operational practice rather than abstract theory. Each chapter is grounded in real operational decisions, with case examples showing how the concepts apply when the environment is messy and the deadline is tight.

Inside this book:

The modern IT manager role, strategy alignment, building high-performing teams, and IT governance
Servers, storage, networking, data center operations, cloud and virtualization, and monitoring and capacity planning
Security, compliance, risk management, and business continuity and disaster recovery
IT service management including incident, problem, and change management
IT project management fundamentals, methodology selection, project planning, scope definition, and business case development

The book references established frameworks where they apply, including ITIL, NIST, ISO, PMI, and SAFe, with attribution to their published sources. The goal is not to reproduce those frameworks but to show how they apply in day-to-day IT management decisions.

Who this book is for: IT managers, directors, and senior technical leaders responsible for operational environments. Graduate students in IT management programs. Engineers preparing to move into management roles. Consultants and advisors who need a structured reference across the full scope of IT operations.

This book is the first volume in a two-part series on IT management. The second volume, IT Project Delivery and Operational Excellence: Governance, Execution, Metrics, and Continuous Improvement, continues with project execution at scale, portfolio management, performance metrics, and continuous improvement programs.

By the end of this volume, you should be able to evaluate infrastructure decisions through an operational lens, understand how reliability is engineered rather than hoped for, and recognize the controls that prevent small issues from becoming large failures.

Informaci�n sobre el derecho de desistimiento

Derecho legal de desistimiento

Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 d�as sin dar ning�n motivo.

El periodo de desistimiento vencer� a los 14 d�as desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesi�n f�sica del �ltimo bien o del �ltimo lote o pieza.

Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electr�nica y env�e una declaraci�n clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a trav�s de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electr�nico).

Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que env�e su comunicaci�n relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.

Efectos del desistimiento

Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de env�o (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de env�o que no sea el tipo de env�o est�ndar m�s econ�mico que ofrecemos).

Podemos hacer una deducci�n del reembolso por la p�rdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la p�rdida es el resultado de una manipulaci�n innecesaria por su parte.

Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a m�s tardar, 14 d�as despu�s de que se nos informe de su decisi�n de rescindir este contrato.

Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utiliz� para la transacci�n inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrir� en ning�n cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.

Podremos retener el reembolso hasta que hayamos recibido los bienes o hasta que nos haya presentado una prueba de que los ha devuelto, lo que ocurra primero.

Deber� devolver los bienes o entregarlos a CitiRetail, Stevenage, United Kingdom, sin demoras indebidas y, en cualquier caso, en un plazo m�ximo de 14 d�as a partir del d�a en que nos comunique su desistimiento del presente contrato. El plazo se cumple si devuelve la mercanc�a antes de que venza el periodo de 14 d�as. Tendr� que asumir los gastos directos de devoluci�n de los bienes. Usted solo es responsable de la disminuci�n del valor de los bienes como resultado de una manipulaci�n distinta a la necesaria para establecer la naturaleza, las caracter�sticas y el funcionamiento de los bienes.

La entrega de peri�dicos, diarios o revistas, con la excepci�n de los contratos de suscripci�n; y
El suministro de contenido digital que no se proporcione en un soporte tangible (por ejemplo, en un CD o DVD) si, al hacer el pedido, acept� que pod�amos empezar a entregarlo y que no podr�a desistir una vez iniciada la entrega.
