From the Back Cover:

"Tony Bishop leverages his unique experience and understanding of business process and technology in presenting a clear path for evolving today’s datacenter to one that is far more agile, high performing, leveraged, and cost-effective.  This is a must read for financial institutions focused on leveraging their ongoing IT investments under a new paradigm; one that breaks down barriers to be far more responsive to market shifts and proactive in attacking market opportunities."

--Paul D. Jameson, Director, Global Financial Services, Cisco Systems

"Tony has provided a very comprehensive "cookbook" of how to transform the legacy data centers to the next generation data centers.  He provides logical advice and easy to follow instructions based on his real life experience on the "dos" and "don’ts" so those who follow his advice should be able to save considerable time and effort on their own transformation. It is not only for the financial services industry, but anyone dealing with complex information technology modernization that needs to support an agile business which is almost every business. This should be a "must read" for anyone on the journey to the next generation data center."
