Contents Reasons to become a cloud service provider -- The service consumer -- The service provider -- The CICS systems programmer -- The z/OS systems programmer -- Operational considerations -- DevOps perspective Summary The main focus of the book is lessons learned from the implementation by an IBM client, Walmart Stores, Inc.®, that achieved impressive results in their efforts to become their own cloud service provider to their developer community. In this way, Walmart successfully made zSystems a relevant part of their Hybrid Cloud strategy. Walmart embarked on this journey to help their application developers achieve results that were previously time-consuming and difficult to deliver. In the process, they realized that they had everything that they needed to become a services provider to their developer community. This book describes the choices that Walmart made, and explains the steps they took to be successful. The goal of the book is not to imply that the only way to achieve success is by following Walmart's process exactly. Rather, this book allows you to use the same basic constructs, but choose implementation details that fit your environment so that you can achieve success on your own terms Notes "SG24-8347-00"--Back cover Bibliography Includes bibliographical references Notes Online resource; title from cover (viewed May 10, 2016) Subject Wal-Mart (Firm) SUBJECT Wal-Mart (Firm) fast Subject Web services.
