Decision-makers are choosing a mix of on-prem, private, and public cloud for their enterprise
It wasn’t long ago that technologists and pundits were predicting the death of the corporate data center. Before long, the thinking went, enterprise IT would operate entirely in the public cloud.
The demise of the data center has been somewhat exaggerated. And while the adoption of the public cloud has been transformative for nearly every large enterprise, the reality is that many organizations find some combination of on-premises, private, and public clouds to be the most effective strategy for success over the long term.
That’s one of the key conclusions from a recent HPE research report based on insights from more than 900 IT leaders across nine countries, offering a new benchmark for how enterprises can develop and refine their cloud strategies. The research questioned decision-makers on the following:
- What types of cloud solutions are you utilizing?
- How will that change over the next five years?
- What are the pros and cons of hybrid cloud adoption?
- What advice do you have for CIOs and CTOs embarking on a cloud migration?
