Applying ITIL4 Discipline to DDI
IP addresses and associated DHCP and DNS functions are foundational to IT services and applications running over an IP network; these functions must be prudently managed, just as other critical network infrastructure elements are managed via the centralization of control, monitoring, and provisioning of distributed network elements.

Do I need DDI for the Cloud?
As an extension or as the full extent of your enterprise infrastructure, ubiquitous accessibility to compute, database, and application resources in the cloud is imperative. Such accessibility implies network access, albeit with appropriate access controls, for your users to access the cloud services and applications they require.

Stop Unwanted Changes
Active Directory (AD) is the primary identity access management solution for most organizations. It is often used for federated access, single sign-on, and or synced with cloud systems so its reach goes well beyond local on-prem systems. This makes it a highly valuable target for bad actors. AD issues can result in costly service disruptions and business-crippling downtime. Data breaches and regulatory non-compliance can cause organizations to incur significant expenses.

Inglorious DDI
While keeping your network's foundational DDI services up and running won't garner you many public accolades, you are indeed an unsung hero. DDI is the foundation of your network and if any part of it fails, the entire network will suffer.
