What You Told Us: Cloud Computing: Does IT Really Matter? |
As cloud computing mainstreams, technology executives may need to procure cloud-based services to meet changing business demands. But how do you deal with cloud-based IT services that are growing increasingly decentralized and more integrated with core IT functions?
On October 4, 2012, the Technology Executives Dbriefs series held the webcast “Cloud Computing: Does IT Really Matter?”
Chris Weitz, Director, Deloitte Consulting LLP and Irfan Saif, Principal, Deloitte & Touche LLP, discussed how emerging cloud services are likely to impact technology and business models moving forward. They also shared:
- What does hyper-hybrid cloud mean, and why it is projected to become increasingly important?
- What are some values of defining business processes and technology components as services in order to be ready for cloud operating models?
- What have been some practical examples of how enterprises are leveraging service models and cloud architectures for business advantage?
During the webcast, the presenters checked in with the audience to uncover the most challenging aspect of introducing a hybrid cloud environment, the benefits of leveraging a hyper-hybrid cloud approach and security concerns they may anticipate. Over 900 of you voted:
