 6-9. Resilience plan management CHAPTER 6 A PROCESS FOR NETWORK ROADMAP EVOLUTION Plan Resilience Management: Input Roadmap Charter As discussed earlier, a roadmap charter provides the bounds and limits for the network roadmap. These inputs help determine the scope of resilience management that can be performed. Roadmap Management Plan Once defined, the roadmap management plan gives critical input regarding the following: Extent to which resilience has to be managed in the network under development Input regarding how resilience management has to be planned Enterprise or Domain Factors Enterprise factors could give input regarding: The level of resilience management accepted as the norm in the industry Resilience management that is being followed by some of the chief competitors Input that could be obtained from standards in the domain regarding resilience management Organization Input Organizational input could include the following: Standards and processes that should be complied with by the resilience management plan Input from other products or roadmaps regarding resilience management Plan Resilience Management: Tools and Techniques Network Resilience Models As discussed earlier in this chapter, the resilience models analysis could be used to understand the methods to be adopted for resilience management in the network. These provide the basis for network resilience management and help define the aspects of resilience, with respect to implementing the same in the network roadmap, before deciding on the strategy for handling the same. Note Please refer to Chapter 5 for a more detailed analysis of prevalent network resilience models. CHAPTER 6 A PROCESS FOR NETWORK ROADMAP EVOLUTION Strategies for Network Resilience The strategy that is adopted for network resilience actually determines: The effort spent on resilience management The levels of tolerances provided by the network toward various resiliency aspects The effectiveness of the network in being able to evolve in case of challenges and other threats.
