When it comes to the costs of natural disasters last year – what reinsurer Aon Benfield calls “ perils ” – wildfires ranked a distant third.
Just as your embrace of cloud computing has been unique, so will the approach you take to optimizing your cloud(s).
Inevitably, you’ll face the sheer complexity of emerging IT technologies as well as decisions about productively and cost-efficiently deploying and managing those technologies, and about choosing from among an ever-growing range of cloud provider options and pricing models.
Bringing in a provider with advanced expertise to support your IT infrastructure can cut your costs, chiefly via increased uptime, better capacity utilization, longer asset lifespans, improved auditing, and reduced energy use
The great cloud computing experiment is over — because it’s been wildly successful and is now being replaced by cloud industrialization on a vast scale.
By 2021, cloud data centers will process 94% of all workloads and compute instances — and you need to be ready.
Despite occasional arguments that the U.S. IT talent gap is a myth , plenty of evidence (see my last post) points to what appears, in fact, to be a rather significant IT talent gap that’s particularly wide in cybersecurity , cloud computing , big data, analytics, and information management .
