What can they do to resolve the problem?

An IT department has defined 50 service offerings in their service catalog to satisfy application developers. All services are sourced from within the private cloud. Many of the variants have only been deployed a small number of times. A big data platform is offered and being actively used by a team of data scientists.

The developers are able to customize the platform’s compute, storage, protection and network configuration upon instantiation. Because of the culture of the organization, no chargeback mechanism is implemented.

Within six months, IT finds that the environment has become very complex.
