Organizations are on a transformation journey to keep pace.
Cloud scaling and pay-per-use flexibility has been a catalyst for that transformation.
While they may benefit from the flexibility of a public cloud resources, they generally also require an on-premises solution. According to Gartner, over 75% of midsize and large organizations will have adopted a multicloud or a hybrid cloud strategy by 2021.
This paper guides organization on how to deliver the cloud experience on-premises. A quick review of the three basic approaches to obtaining IT resources:
1. On-premises compute: a capital expense model.
2. Public cloud: a subscription or pay-per-use model.
3. Public cloud-like on-premises: a pay-per-use, elastic IT consumption model. Commonly referred to as IT as a service (ITaaS).
The benefits to the business of a cloud experience include faster project deployments, higher value products, increased operational efficiencies, and financial transparency that directly associates cost to consumption.
As organizations embrace a multi-cloud model, they expect all their IT environments to keep up.
