Abstract

Governance at scale is explored with rigorous, evidence-based analysis based on structured arguments, definitions, and measurable outcomes designed to illuminate orchestration across cloud-scale data centers. These capabilities address enterprise risk and compliance requirements while enabling sustained operational agility. A structured systematic abstraction of cloud-scale risk and compliance orchestration reveals the requisite architectural principles, intelligent construction technologies, supporting control service specializations, governance model variations, risk scenario space, orchestration metric assets, and business-oriented integration requirements. Together, these assets provide a comprehensive recipe for enterprise risk and compliance orchestration at cloud scale, encapsulating both service platforms and workloads.

Cloud-scale data center service models are designed to support rapid, high-frequency provisioning of business applications and support infrastructure. They reduce procurement lead times and ensure allocation of minimal resources required to support workloads. New provisioning requests are serviced with resources that can be operated cost-effectively and at low risk of localized limitations impacting delivery of service objectives. Highly capable operational teams wired for ongoing service delivery normally practice a regimen of continuous improvement across project, release, and operational areas. Enterprise risk and compliance objectives remain challenging to achieve at cloud scale using traditional practices. Attempting to apply the same change control, trading partner, supply chain, financial management, asset lifecycle management, and HR administration processes at cloud scale incurs unacceptable impacts on operational agility.
