Abstract

The digital transformation of the economy, as well as society in general, is in large part based on data centers’ capabilities to process, store, and transport data. As the range of application requirements, the volume of data and system complexities, as well as security requirements increase, appropriate application system landscapes to support the tasks performed in a data center become crucial to success. Within this chapter we provide an overview on application software used to manage IT service production in data centers. With the advent of cloud computing, data centers increasingly face outside competition on all layers of the IT stack. Cloud service providers, such as Software as a Service companies, may even operate their own data centers. Furthermore, the people who use the investigated application software often themselves undergo an evolution from pure administrative to engineering responsibilities. Lastly, progress in the domain of application software, in general, has influenced application software discussed here. These phenomena are examined in order to compare common practice against competitive advantage of using the software from the presented taxonomy. The presented research has implications for practitioners because it provides an overview on the essential application fields of cloud-ready data centers. Additionally, the chapter contributes to the knowledge base by providing a taxonomy that is derived from a previously conducted case study. The taxonomy may be used in further research, for instance, in application system landscape maturity models.
