What is ITIL 4 Service Management?
ITIL 4 Service Management addresses the needs of organizations and customers, helping to deliver IT services better and faster.
ITIL 4 Service Management is an updated version of ITIL V3 that brings together more than 25 years of experience in providing best practice guidance to improve the way services are delivered. It consolidates the previous three versions of ITIL, including service strategy, service design, service transition, and continuous service improvement process areas.
The main goal of ITIL 4 Service Management is to help organizations and customers provide better IT services through a collaborative approach by focusing on effective change management. If you want to learn more about ITIL 4 Service Management itself, we recommend the ITIL 4 Foundation workout on.

Why do you need an SLA?
What is an SLA actually?
ITIL 4 SLA, Service Level Agreement, which is extensively discussed during the ITIL 4 Foundation training, is a contract between the customer and the service provider in which the services to be delivered are defined and which must be enforced by the service provider.
An ITIL 4 SLA is important for both parties because it sets out the expectations of each party. If a service, such as an e-mail server, goes down or has problems, it is clearly indicated which compensation will be given to whom in which time frame.
