For the past decade, early adopters of cloud technology have reaped the benefit of migrating their workload from data centre to the cloud. Now, as large enterprises have witnessed how cloud technology can drive innovation within an organization, it has become an easier task for CTOs to convince the upper management and have their mission-critical applications hosted in the cloud.
Jeff Atkins, Senior Director of Product Management and Chief Architect of the irms|360 Enterprise Cloud Warehouse Management System, said that “it’s inevitable for larger, more complexed organizations to keep ahead of the competition without making the move to the cloud”, and if you’re still sitting on the fence, then here are a few more stats & trends for you to consider joining the other side.
