The industry is highly regulated, thus dramatically increasing costs and sometimes even interfering with the ability to deliver healthcare. New drugs, treatments, and medical technologies are so common that keeping track of them can be overwhelming, and incorporating them into patient care or administration can be costly and complicated. On the social side, different groups have different opinions on any given topic and often the right thing to do depends on your point of view. Third party payers add another level of complexity, and competition adds yet another layer of difficulty as organizations seek to grow patient volume by positioning themselves as distinguished in terms of cost, quality, accessibility, and quality of patient experience. 410 0$a2014 digital library. 410 0$aStrategic management collection.$x2150-9646 606 $aHealth services administration 606 $aStrategic planning 606 $aHealth Services Administration 610 $acompetitive advantage 610 $aefficiency 610 $aethical management 610 $ahealthcare 610 $ainnovation 610 $aperformance measurement 610 $astakeholder management 610 $astakeholder theory 610 $astrategic management 615 0$aHealth services administration. 615 0$aStrategic planning. 615 2$aHealth Services Administration. 676 $a362.1068 700 $aHarrison$b Jeffrey S.$f1957-,$01553799 702 $aThompson$b Steven M. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788041703321 996 $aStrategic management of healthcare organizations$93814599 997 $aUNINA LEADER 06301nam 2200697 a 450 001 9910438097903321 005 20250511160223.0 010 $a9781430249245 010 $a1430249242 024 7 $a10.1007/978-1-4302-4924-5 035 $a(CKB)3710000000015705 035 $a(EBL)1636305 035 $a(OCoLC)902409794 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000988074 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11942362 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000988074 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10950678 035 $a(PQKB)10821366 035 $a(DE-He213)978-1-4302-4924-5 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1636305 035 $a(CaSebORM)9781430249238 035 $a(PPN)172417023 035 $a(OCoLC)861618513 035 $a(OCoLC)ocn861618513 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000015705 100 $a20130910d2013 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aCloud capacity management /$fNavin Sabharwal, Prashant Wali 205 $a1st ed. 2013. 210 $a[Berkeley, Calif.] $cApress$dc2013 215 $a1 online resource (175 p.) 300 $aIncludes index. 311 08$a9781430249238 311 08$a1430249234 327 $a""Contents at a Glance"";

It explains the role of capacity management for a creator, aggregator, and consumer of cloud services and how to provision for it in a 'pay as you use model'. This involves a high level of abstraction and virtualization to facilitate rapid and on demand provisioning of services. The conventional IT service models take a traditional approach when planning for service capacity to provide optimum services levels which has huge cost implications for service providers. This book addresses the gap areas between traditional capacity management practices and cloud service models. It also showcases capacity management process design and implementation in a cloud computing domain using ITSM best practices. This book is a blend of ITSM best practices and infrastructure capacity planning and optimization implementation in various cloud scenarios. Cloud Capacity Management addresses the basics of cloud computing, its various models, and their impact on capacity planning. This book also highlights the infrastructure capacity management implementation process in a cloud environment showcasing inherent capabilities of tool sets available and the various techniques for capacity planning and performance management. Techniques like dynamic resource scheduling, scaling, load balancing, and clustering etc are explained for implementing capacity management.  . 606 $aCloud computing 606 $aDatabase management 615 0$aCloud computing. 615 0$aDatabase management. 676 $a004 676 $a005.1 676 $a005.7 700 $aSabharwal$b Navin$0911357 701 $aWali$b Prashant$01762495 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910438097903321 996 $aCloud capacity management$94202478 997 $aUNINA
