Platform Savings for Hybrid Cloud In today’s dynamic business landscape, agility, scalability, and efficiency are prized possessions. Yet, organizations still face numerous challenges including tightening budgets, IT enablement of new pop-up business opportunities, rising costs, cyberattacks, new technology adoption, such as Gen AI, lack of technical knowledge and increasing demand for innovation.

In light of tightening budgets, rising costs, and heightened demand for compliance and innovation, there’s no doubt that many companies are increasingly relying on hybrid cloud environments to modernize their current infrastructure and IT operations. But, according to a recent survey, nearly half of businesses are struggling due to the rapid integration of cloud technologies, the complexity of integration processes, a lack of skilled personnel, and the need for comprehensive cybersecurity measures.

Today, businesses are facing some of the toughest digital innovation challenges we’ve ever seen in recent times. The climate crisis, the breakneck speed of technological innovation, and growing cybersecurity threats are just some of the hurdles that must be smartly addressed for organizations to succeed in today’s increasingly data-driven world. This is something we know to be true from recent discussions with our customers.
