Growing with the growth of the cloud | Skillsoft’s Global Knowledge Skip to main Content

Now that the cloud is here, your IT department is changing too, or may already be changing. Cloud solutions are easier to deploy and require less hands on management. As a result, your team’s responsibilities are changing. At the same time, your company will now have new expectations with respect to what IT can deliver. More speed. More flexibility. You may be looking at how to change the way you work. How to change your role from a strictly technical one towards one in which you can collaborate and support other teams?

Are you ready for the Cloud?

We all recognise the Cloud is no longer the “new kid on the block”. Almost all organisations are doing “something” in the Cloud and realise that Cloud Computing is the future. The Cloud offers scalability, easier management and a higher ROI, whilst also having a “pay-per-use” payment model. However, it is apparent that many organisations have difficulty in understanding the true benefits of the Cloud due to the lack of skills and changing roles within the organisation.

CLOUD IS MORE THAN TECHNOLOGY

The Cloud is more than technology alone. It is transforming how organisations use and manage technology. The arrival of the Cloud has an immediate effect on business processes and governance, IT efficiency and the skill-set needed within the IT team. How does your organisation or you, as an individual manage these issues?

CLOUD MEANS CHANGE

Cloud means change and this change requires a specific approach. In addition to the Cloud solution itself, there are various issues you must deal with when you make the switch to the Cloud or are already working in the Cloud. We have outlined these issues for you and divided them into three sub-categories: Adoption, Career and Continuous Improvement.

"CLOUD & ADOPTION"


Cloud Visual

You are probably familiar with the benefits of the Cloud. Cloud gives you access to fully scalable capacity, made accessible through the internet with a pay-per-use model. How quickly can you test a new service and deploy it? How much of your current capacity do you not even use, yet pay for? How secure is your infrastructure and can you easily enhance your current environment’s security levels?

Many companies that have not yet made the step to the cloud will see sufficient bottlenecks in their current infrastructure for which the cloud offers a solution. In recent years, cloud services have been perfected in such a way that there is only one reason left for not moving on: fear. Sometimes this is a fear of vendor lock in, or fear of losing control of your services. You might worry about job security, data security and/or privacy.
