CLOUD
SERVICES
CLOUD has become the primary location for businesses to store data; most have moved even their applications to cloud platforms, and many of those businesses that have their data on-premise today are soon planning to migrate to cloud. Companies across industries are modernizing their data platforms to leverage new-age applications and advanced analytics at the same time as they are moving their data to cloud.
What drives IT executives to initiate cloud migration?
Security is top-of-mind for everyone, from C-suite IT executives and senior leaders to IT managers and developers.
Cybersecurity attacks are rising in sophistication, and a shortage of skills means that many companies are struggling to manage security in-house. Some IT executives are turning to third-party cloud and managed security services, with cloud providers delivering sophisticated cyber capabilities and solutions and cloud offering the potential of helping to mitigate security incidents. These factors suggest that IT executives may be increasingly relying on the expertise of third-party cloud-based security and infrastructure providers to protect their data.
Data modernization, primarily involves moving data from legacy to modern databases. Fifty-five percent of the surveyed IT leaders and executives strongly agree that data modernization is a key component of, or a reason for, their companies’ shift to the cloud.
Executives today need timely and targeted analytics on existing data; many rely on a stream of insights based on data mining, exploration, and prediction.
And since much of that data is on cloud today—indeed, 91 percent of respondents noted that their companies store data primarily on the cloud—it is hardly surprising that leaders see cloud as essential to effectively modernizing companies’ data platforms.
