SEMPLIFICARE LA
COMPLESSITÀ
Nuove soluzioni per ottimizzare l'infrastruttura

Gestire la complessità dell’infrastruttura di un
moderno sistema informativo aziendale

Giancarlo Livraghi
Pubblicitario, scrittore e bibliografo

La complessità spiegata in modo semplice (*)
Quando lo scopo è andare da A a B, nella mente di tutti noi si delinea un percorso lineare,
quindi molto SEMPLICE:
A B

Tuttavia, nel mondo reale fra un punto A e un punto B ci sono sempre “interferenze”. Le rette
non esistono: il percorso reale sarà necessariamente più COMPLESSO
A
B

(*) Giancarlo Livraghi, L'umanità dell'internet. Le vie della rete sono infinite, Hops Libri,
Milano, 2001

Se l’obiettivo da raggiungere è per sua natura complicato e quindi l’operazione da compiere è
complessa, il percorso diviene ancora più tortuoso e si può persino perdere di vista l’obiettivo:

C D

A B

E F

È quello che accade, per esempio, in una qualsiasi organizzazione se le diverse componenti
non hanno una conoscenza condivisa della rotta da seguire

In un ambiente stabile, entro il quale le variabili fossero facilmente controllabili, la condivisione
dell’obiettivo e la puntuale verifica dei percorsi basterebbero a far convergere gli sforzi, così:

A B

Purtroppo,in genere si ha a che fare con ambienti turbolenti, nei quali le evoluzioni non sono
prevedibili

Continuare a considerare solo l’obiettivo “B” può quindi essere controproducente:
raggiungerlo dai punti C, D, E ed F implicherebbe complicate e faticose “retromarce”.
Le inversioni di rotta, potrebbero rappresentare SOLUZIONI TROPPO COMPLESSE
N

C D
A B

E F

Invece, osservando il sistema con un atteggiamento più elastico, si potrebbe notare che alcune
“deviazioni” in realtà convergono verso un nuovo obiettivo (N)

Puntando sul nuovo obiettivo, senza necessariamente tagliare i“rami” che esplorano altre
direzioni, muta la struttura del sistema:
N

A

Che può sembrare poco “logica”… Ma è più semplice di quelle che si disegnerebbero
tentando di seguire un modello “lineare” :

In analogia con quanto accade in natura, dove “paga” l’evoluzione non lineare,
LA “COMPLESSITÀ” NON È IN REALTÀ PIÙ COMPLESSA DEI SISTEMI “ORDINATI” :
al contrario, tende a sintesi più semplici

Patterns of Expertise: Proven best practices and expertise for complex tasks learned from decades of
client and partner engagements that are captured, lab tested and optimized into a deployable form

What is a Pattern?
• The pre-defined architecture of an application
• For each component of the application (i.e. database, web
server, etc)
• Pre-installation on an operating system
• Pre-integration across components
• Pre-configured & tuned Monitoring
• Pre-configured Monitoring Lifecycle
Management
• Pre-configured Security
• Lifecycle Management

• In a deployable form, resulting in repeatable deployment
with full lifecycle management

• Delivering superior results:
• Agility: Faster time-to-value
• Efficiency: Reduced costs and resources
• Simplicity: Simpler skills requirements
• Control: Lower risk and errors

Many clients start the cloud journey with a private cloud
• Higher availability of systems and applications
Clients are looking for benefits • Lower total costs and better utilization of hardware
from private clouds • Labor savings and improved quality of IT services
• Secure start behind enterprise firewall

• Highly standardized infrastructure
And are preparing infrastructure
• Virtualization
to build the foundation
• Multi-tenancy
• Service catalog
• Dynamic resource scaling

Half of leading cloud adopters are planning
to include multiple systems in their cloud
infrastructures


As a result, a secure private cloud deployment is an
increasingly attractive means of creating and
delivering IT services
