15 Best Practice: Define What You Want From Cloud Computing First Agility Cost Reduce Complexity Focus Leverage Innovation How can we use the cloud to make change easier, quicker or more effective without the time, cost and risk associated with capital expenditures? How can we reduce operating/startup costs, spend more effectively and shift from a Client/Server to Cloud (Hybrid) model? How can we reduce complexity and shift work off our shoulders? How can we focus more on what we need to do and not on what we don't? How can we leverage the knowledge and skills of others, who do we partner with going forward? How can we do things that were hard or impossible to do before?

16 Cloud Service Business Impact Analysis: Understand Your Potential Risks/Costs Security Transparency Assurance Lock-In Integration Financial How can we ensure that our processes and client s data are protected, and ensure regulatory and legal compliance? How can we ensure that we have visibility into how the provider delivers our value? How can we be confident that the technology and the services will work continuously and effectively? How can we prevent ourselves and our clients from being locked into a provider with no ability to migrate? How can we make services from independent providers work with each other and with us? How can we ensure that the financial model is effective over time? Is the business model really elastic?
