Cloud computing has completely revolutionised the way businesses operate. Even before the global pandemic accelerated the shift towards it, cloud computing was becoming an essential component of many business strategies. And it’s clear to see why.
From disaster recovery and data security to scalability and mobility, companies that adopt the cloud generally experience substantial benefits over those that don’t. And these benefits don’t just help in day-to-day life but also to future-proof organisations, propelling them forward. Here, we highlight how the adoption of cloud can help evolve your business.
Modernises your apps
Once in the cloud, it’s easier to manage and move your apps. This doesn’t just help them run natively on the cloud either. App modernisation is the first step to digital transformation, allowing your business to build new capabilities – and more importantly, do it quickly.
You can expand on your existing services by creating products that were previously either impractical or expensive. With a culture of automation, the efficiency of your operations and developers will be improved too.
Optimises resources
In addition to modernising your apps, cloud adoption will allow you to view your billing in a more simplified way. Not to mention, allow you to more accurately allocate resources and budget to new products, services and features.
Both Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services (AWS) allow you to optimise your resources in real-time thanks to their user-friendly dashboards. You can control spending and replace costly resources with cost-effective solutions – without impacting needs.
Allows you to focus on the future
With Infrastructure as Code (IaC), managing IT infrastructure no longer has to be a manual, time-intensive process. Instead, configuration is taken care of automatically.
Developers can spend more time focusing on development and innovation, rather than just infrastructure. Plus, it removes the factor of human error and guarantees a high-level of security.
Helps you embrace DevOps practices
DevOps allows teams to work together, collaborate closely, share responsibilities, and combine their workflows reducing inefficiencies and saving time. Increasingly, there’s been a huge shift towards this practice with a focus on prompt IT service delivery.
And it’s no wonder. When teams are more effective at innovating, they’ll be driving your business forward – strengthening customer experiences and swiftly delivering products and services that outdo competitors.
