Los líderes de todo el mundo se están dando cuenta de que «no existiré si no estoy en la nube». Una cruda realidad, de la que muchos líderes ya se dieron cuenta, como compartió Satya Nadella en su entrevista con Morgan Stanley. Es una lección que puede que se haya aprendido con el tiempo, pero que se ha acelerado por la pandemia. La pregunta fundamental «¿Seguirá existiendo mi negocio?» se reduce en última instancia a dos cosas
Competitiveness: Is your workforce productive and collaborative? Are you leveraging data to improve customer service and acquire new customers? Have you optimised your operations in terms of cost and efficiency? Resilience: Is your business able to respond to market pressures and opportunities with agility? Do you consider your organisation secure in the face of growing threats? Many of your competitors are answering yes to these questions. If not, that is a challenging place to be.
For every answer, look to the data Unlocking and activating the value of data has clear frontline benefits. By focusing on configuring or enhancing a cloud-based data platform and assembling agile teams, CIOs can double, or even triple, the speed of development in the short term. Long-term success can be strongly influenced by the effectiveness of a company's data approach. However, optimising data is a complicated task. It includes developing approaches to data governance, redesigning processes as modular applications, and leveraging the benefits of flexible, scalable, cloud-based technology. By focusing on building an intelligent digital architecture in a modern cloud state, enterprises unlock the value of data and reap the rewards. By putting data at the centre of organisational evolution, companies can gain a clear view of the entire business, make informed decisions and create business agility.
La agilidad empresarial es fundamental La agilidad empresarial se logra adaptando rápidamente los bienes y servicios para satisfacer la demanda de los clientes. El COVID-19 ha transformado para siempre la vida de los clientes, particularmente en la adopción de lo digital, que se asemeja a un cambio de «década en días». Estos cambios de comportamiento han reformado los procesos de toma de decisiones de los consumidores y las empresas deben adaptarse rápidamente o arriesgarse a perder frente a aquellos que se pasaron a lo digital antes. Las empresas que ya están en la nube pueden beneficiarse de un mayor ritmo de desarrollo de productos que alinea directamente la infraestructura de TI con las metas y los objetivos comerciales. Además, pueden escalar los procesos de TI hacia arriba y hacia abajo, según sea necesario, optimizando el uso de los activos de TI. Además, la resiliencia empresarial es de vital importancia para las empresas después de una pandemia, y la seguridad se encuentra en el centro de esto.
Security is a core tenant of resilience Incidents of internal data breaches, whether accidental or malicious, are on the rise and will increase by 25% in 2021. Even for companies already in the cloud, we are seeing an opportunity to better define and implement security technology to eliminate vulnerabilities and reduce the risk of future attacks. Organisations must continue to adapt their approaches to security and invest in new models. The only effective approach to enterprise security and resilience is a holistic architectural approach, one that is manageable, adaptable, responsive and developed with the right partner. Engage the experts C-Level executives believe that their organisation cannot capture the benefits of agility by simply shifting applications to cloud platforms. A holistic cloud strategy is now a fundamental component of business strategy. Leaders must understand how to leverage the latest cloud technology innovations to meet their strategy and business objectives. What is the challenge today? The pace of innovation coming from Microsoft and other public cloud providers requires significant investment to interpret and translate innovations into solutions that meet business objectives. This investment for most organisations is simply prohibitive, but critical if they want to stay on the cutting edge of technology and remain competitive. Working with a trusted partner, such as Logicalis, eliminates this challenge. Partners with the credentials, experience and deep connections to companies like Microsoft are the trusted advisors who can guide you through the complexity to stay ahead of your competitors. Logicalis' experience with private, hosted, hybrid and public clouds ensures that businesses receive a secure, agile, scalable and universally available environment, while meeting the most stringent security standards, regardless of the location in which the systems operate. Regardless of the size of your business or the stage you are at in your transformation journey to the cloud, it is important to remember that without a continuous focus on leveraging the latest technology to gain a competitive advantage, you are likely to be left behind. So, do you think you can exist without the cloud?
