Key cloud roadblock – Fear of Change

Key findings from a Study  

Key cloud roadblock –  Fear of Change
·         Fear of change tends to be underestimated when companies decide to mix things up and take new approaches to tried-and-true ways of doing things. It's not just changing what people do all day in terms of how they use software, like moving to SaaS, but it's also about infrastructure and about application developers and how they think about developing an application.
·         Additional cloud roadblocks
o   Up-front costs
o    Security
Justification for cloud implementation on the other hand still remains the same-
·         Cost reduction
·         Increased flexibility/scalability
·         Reduced complexity
Again as discussed earlier in previous blog- Majority have virtualized their cloud servers, but few have implemented the Core management, Automation and Orchestration or Self-service functionality to use the cloud to its full potential.
-Cheers
