Modern day IT Services and its subsequent businesses are going through a vast range of changes. These are changes in either demand or the way technology is evolved in the day to day life. IT Industry has been through the phases from business-oriented units to end-user-oriented services. If we look into the history of the IT industry, then we do not need not go beyond the 20th century. It was a UK government initiative that started one of the first frameworks to enhance capacities delivered by IT industry. ITIL® should be given credit for how the IT development work is conducted in today's scenario. When the UK government implemented this framework in general IT practices, the IT work was done for the end users but with a focus towards the businesses. The enhancements in industry ensured that innovations are part of the industry but now the focus is moved from a phase to other. Today, a consumer holds the maximum power to influence biggest business decisions. Until a few years ago, the IT industry had a life that focussed on what requirements clients are looking to fulfill with. Now clients have to sustain that trend and add a separate set that talks about their product's end users. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS) etc came to existence as these gave an idea to address end-users expectations directly even when serving the client. There are other project management frameworks that assist organisations developing their processes but ITIL has a unique advantage as it guides on not only setting up the process but to add a flavor of the service industry. I am trying to put all my professional experiences and knowledge earned through the trainings in this book. Wish you all a Happy Learning time!

As business becomes more and more dependent on technology, there is considerable attention given to the concept of aligning IT to the business. Until ITIL version 3, this concept remained mostly conceptual. The IT Infrastructure Library, by focusing on the principle of providing services, empowers IT and the business with the tools they require to enable this alignment. Having become the de-facto standard in IT Service Management, ITIL is rapidly gaining popularity across the globe. Written by an ITIL trainer who has taught thousands of students at hundreds of organizations, Foundations of IT Service Management - The Unofficial ITIL v3 Foundations Course in a Book, provides the reader with the introduction to this approach to IT services without the expense of a formal classroom course. While the focus is primarily on providing the information required to pass the ITIL v3 Foundations exam, this book goes beyond those basics to also provide real understanding of ITIL to further your knowledge and abilities as a valuable part of this IT/Business alignment. Using a case-study approach, real issues are discussed that represent challenges experienced in almost every IT organization. This book is supported with access to online sample exams that are constantly updated as new material is available. Additionally, access to the author is provided to ask questions prior to taking your exam giving you the greatest opportunity to learn the material and successfully pass your ITIL Foundations exam. Based on the official ITIL v3 Foundations Syllabus from the APM Group, the Service Lifecycle is explored including the lifecycle stages of Service Strategy, Service Design, Service Transition, Service Operation and Continual Service Improvement. Within each of these lifecycle stages, the concepts within are explored as well as the underlying processes that enable this concept of IT Service Management.
