Among savvy business IT leaders, there’s always been an understanding that data center transformation should be a focus. When you become smarter and more efficient about how you manage data, it’s often a key source of competitive advantage for your business. This has always been the case.
But it’s especially true now. The global pandemic brought about a realignment in how we work on a daily basis. Companies now lean more heavily than ever on nimble, adaptable approaches to data. Specifically, they’re leaning on the cloud.
According to Forbes, it’s become clear that the cloud has emerged as the backbone of remote work. Chris DeRamus, VP of technology for DivvyCloud, pointed out that cloud-based remote work began as a public health necessity during the early days of COVID-19, but attitudes evolved in the months that followed. Business leaders now are realizing that allowing people to work from home, and manage their data in the cloud rather than in-office, can drive greater productivity and employee comfort.
“While not every job or industry will ever be 100% remote, companies can still leverage cloud apps and services to continue enabling workers – both remotely and in the office,” DeRamus explained. “With a proper understanding of how to implement and support a remote workforce and the challenges that come with this, remote styles of work can be a win-win for employees and employers.”
The operative phrase there is “leverage cloud apps and services.” It’s dawned on IT leaders this year that the cloud is what drives everything. With the right cloud infrastructure in place, employees everywhere are able to share information, communicate in real time, collaborate, and ultimately get stuff done. Perhaps in a previous era, we had physical workspaces with meeting rooms; what we instead have now is the cloud. For IT, the challenge is to take a close look at what cloud apps and services they’re investing in, making strategic decisions that will drive business growth.
