Freeing from CAPEX driven on-premise models, IT organizations in India are finding the much needed Digital nirvana by taking the Cloud plunge
Cloud is no longer a trend it’s a reality and enterprise IT organizations across the world are riding this disruption and reimagining the way IT has been consumed and delivered. With the escalation of the cloud, experts believe that it signals the beginning of the end of conventional IT paradigms and practices that were in vogue in managing enterprise IT through an asset-driven ‘on-premise’ IT model rooted in periodical CAPEX influxes via software and hardware refresh cycles.
Setting the tone and context, Atul Sareen, Vice President and Head of Cloud Sales, SAP Indian Subcontinent says, “ Cloud has quickly become the mainstream of business technology, and an increasing number of companies are moving their core functions to the cloud. From start-ups to large enterprises, across all industries, everyone has or is joining the bandwagon and working towards their cloud strategy. Companies are now leveraging the cloud as a platform for continuous business innovation - as a way to engage employees, customers and partners in new ways, unleash new operating models and gain new insights that drive growth, profitability and accelerate competitive advantage in today’s ultra-competitive marketplace.”
So clearly cloud is no longer a trend. It’s a necessity. reflecting on this, Shailender Kumar, regional Managing Director, Oracle India says, “Absolutely. As a technology concept, cloud has been in existence for more than a decade, but it is only now that you see it permeate and power businesses and governments the world over. Clearly, the migration to the cloud is happening faster than we expected and India is on a high with more and more customers implementing cloud solutions. Companies have realized the need to invest in IT to promote innovation unlike simply utilizing it to maintain their IT systems.”
