ITIL Version 2

The core publications were released circa 2000.  The 7 core ITIL V2 publications include:

  1. Service Support
  2. Service Delivery
  3. Business Perspective
  4. ICT Infrastructure Management
  5. Security Management
  6. Planning to Implement Service Management
  7. Application Management

ITIL V2 certification scheme focused on 2 of the 7 core publications, Service Support and Service Delivery, with a minor reference to the Security Management.  An ITIL V2 Service Manager is on only Service Support and Service Delivery. The 7 core publications of ITIL V2 were refreshed to create the ITIL V3 Publications in 2007.  There is some debate over the total number of core books in ITIL V2, we have used the Introductory Overview of ITIL V2 by itSMF as the point of reference.

Complementary Frameworks

ITIL V3's strength centers on its alignment with other international frameworks and standards.  The figure below  illustrates the 5 core publications and a sample of some of the other complementary publications.  For example ITIL V3 references PMBoK and PRINCE2 for Project Management rather than re-inventing the wheel.  It is very important that ITSM Professionals understand the relationships between ITIL and the complementary frameworks and standards.  ITSM integrates all frameworks.
