More and More Workloads Are Moving to the Cloud From Now to 2018

hybrid cloudMost companies hesitate to transfer their workloads between services and information in the cloud, so far although there have been many doubts about privacy and security.

According to the latest 451 Research report, based on interviews with over 1,200 IT professionals in different parts of the world, the level of enterprise workloads is in fact set to rise from 41% today to 60% in mid-2018.

The report also highlighted that 38% of the companies involved have a policy of type cloud-first; this means that the priorities of where to place all of their assets are just the cloud. Among other, acquisitions, mergers, updates, divestitures, new hardware and software are pushing more and more companies towards cloud adoption.

The cloud is suitable for any workload in all situations. Naturally, it facilitates and improves things. And if it is true that there is an inevitable transaction to be made in the transition from traditional infrastructure to a cloud, it is also true that more often than not it is a traumatic transaction. That’s why more and more companies will perform this migration to the cloud, whether on-premise, managed by a service provider or in a data center.

Part of the reason behind this growth of cloud adoption is that executives are going beyond the initial concerns about security and privacy. With more and more experience gained in this field, even the doubters against the cloud are overcoming initial fears and gaining more and more confidence in the cloud.

If it is quite simple to move the new cloud services, applications, and data, transfer existing services and information is another matter. The report noted that it takes time to change the way you do things, abandon a practice that already exists, and arrive at a new working structure. Also because, when things work, there is little incentive to change, even with the promise of a secure improvement after this change.

Finally, according to 451 Research, the strongest growth of the cloud will occur especially in critical enterprise categories, such as data analytics, and business applications.

The Myths and Lies About the Cloud Before You Migrate

logoCloud computing continues as a priority in the head of the CIO. This is good news for those who live in this and companies are taking the cloud as a priority in the budget devoted to undertaking the digital transformation of their businesses.

Gartner in the annual CIO survey found that cloud is still held in the top three since the beginning of this decade. Cloud has become a mantra in every one of the projects that clients develop daily.

It is true that all reports show that the fears of companies when moving their data and systems to the cloud are becoming smaller, and also many technological barriers have been eliminated and each time there is a greater number of specialists trained around these services.

Not to mention the price war that has mainly benefited the consumer. But, yet there are still many myths around the cloud need some discussion.

Cloud is just for startups

It is true that the deployment and acceleration of cloud computing have come from the hand of big unicorns that have happened in the absence to be the mirror and scourge of traditional business models.

Spotify, Airbnb, Uber and others have been able to reach a lot of users without having the physical presence in most of the countries where they operate. The great advantage of these organizations is that they do not bring the backpack, either systems legacy or users. They really operate new products and services all in the cloud.

Cloud first and the cloud for all

Organization does not already have the first choice as the cloud to mount a new service. The reality is that, for now, the cloud is a panacea for everything. It is often better to let die or shut down legacy systems and to think to migrate and transform cloud services. The hybrid service architectures are increasingly in vogue.

The cloud saves money

Many analyzes of TCO and ROI that have already prepared and shared with customers validated cloud saves money. But the reality of many companies is not that the risk factor typically altered the whole equation – when you assume that the equipment and systems can remain stable and can be installed the first day for years or decades, there is nothing cheaper than the zero base budget.

The cloud is less secure than my installations

It can occur for any large organization in banking or even in the bodies of national security, but for the rest of enterprises that make up the business fabric of the country is much safer to have their services in the cloud, where the vast majority of suppliers have technology, people and processes to ensure the safety of your business.

Only for web environments and development

This has been the lever around which have grown cloud services, but increasingly critical services have embarked on the journey to the cloud. An increasing number of companies have their CRM, HR systems, talent management, recruitment and others moving to the cloud, and even offer platforms such as SAP ERP cloud has exploded in recent months.

Go to the cloud is to remove the data center

It is not always the case, or at least for the moment; we’ll see what happens within a decade. But the reality is that services from the network, whether electricity or telephony, today still need physical items at the customer. Who knows, maybe the services of information technology will be only fully delivered from the network.

Everything works better in the cloud

It is true that the cloud ceased to be a bottleneck for years, but with everything and that many services remain sensitive to latency and jitter, large organizations are still keeping some sensitive data in-house.
