Recommendation

When a company first ventures into cloud architecture territory, they must choose from among public, private, hybrid or multicloud systems. These decisions can be intimidating, but don’t put them off, especially if you belong to a legacy company where leadership remembers when IT was an afterthought. Digitization requires advanced technology, and advanced technology requires the cloud. In this special report, the Boston Consulting Group highlights a company’s most important considerations when developing cloud architecture.

Take-Aways

  • IT decision-makers tend to favor hybrid-cloud solutions, which combine the power and space of public clouds with the security and latency of private clouds.
  • Choose cloud vendors carefully; vendor partnerships can play a vital role in a company’s future.
  • Companies also need to consider questions of security, organizational structure and technical capabilities.
