What is a Service? Services are a means of delivering value to customers by facilitating outcomes customers want to achieve without the ownership of specific costs and risks. A service is not … A specific application or technology An activity that one particular IT team performs The act of provisioning “request for a new server” is not a service “server management” or “application hosting” is a service Best Practices © Third Sky, Inc – Service Owner Session
