6 cloud market forces impacting IT strategies today
Hybrid and multicloud on the rise
As enterprises continue to deepen their reliance on cloud hosting providers, we expect to see more organizations leaning on hybrid (mix of on-premises and cloud infrastructure) and multicloud (cloud infrastructure from more than one hyperscaler) models. While this creates greater redundancy and avoids lock-in risk with a single platform, internal resource and capability constraints may prove to be a challenge as these models grow.
Cloud storage strategies under scrutiny
As the data footprint of customers’ ERP platforms continues to grow, organizations will need to develop a clear cloud storage strategy, which will ensure that older data is archived, yet still available to meet business demand. This is especially critical for ERP platforms that are storage-intensive, such as SAP S/4 HANA, as unmanaged storage growth will create rapidly increasing costs on licensing and underlying infrastructure.
2023 was a year of growth and service diversification for the cloud services space, and we expect to see that continue throughout 2024. As organizations continue their cloud journeys, either by moving their platforms to the cloud or deepening those capabilities, we look forward to supporting clients to help make that journey a success.
