Cloud and digital transformation landscape
Digital transformation requires real, operational change to succeed. According to SAP’s Digital Transformation Executive Study, leaders across industries agree that digital transformation—often synonymous with moving businesses to the cloud—is critical. Cloud adoption has accelerated the pace of digital transformation across organisations like governments, enterprises and start-ups, along with verticals across industry sectors such as BFSI, healthcare, manufacturing and retail, among others.
With this cloud-adoption market expected to increase rapidly over the next few years, no wonder organisations are acknowledging multicloud to be a foundational pillar necessary for innovation, collaboration and digital transformation.
Multicloud – it’s complicated
Driven by the numerous technology options, potential cost savings and the need for business agility, it’s reported that:
When moving to a cloud ecosystem, different businesses have varying strategies and motivations. Some move to the cloud to replace ageing and costly IT infrastructure while others do it to scale for growth and respond astutely to changing market dynamics.
"Cloud expansion" has made it difficult for enterprises to rely on multiple public cloud providers, private cloud environments, edge cloud providers and data centres at the same time. Each of these services often requires a dedicated IT team, creating conflicting interests and barriers in the organisational processes, eventually resulting in new silo structures.
A multicloud environment, however, can mean multiple cloud providers to deal with, different interface for every cloud service opted for, loss of visibility and control, and potential security pitfalls and compliance challenges from managing disparate cloud environments.
The reality of investing in or managing a multicloud world, and realising the aspirational capabilities of it, can be complicated.
